        abstract = {The rise in paper production by 50% in the past decade haad riven the search for sustainable materials. Non-woody resources, such as agricultural leftovers and annual plants, are gaining attention for pulp and cellulose production due to wood scarcity and ecological concerns. Researchers focus on developing biodegradable and non-toxic biomaterials. Cellulosic fibers, known for their biocompatibility, are sourced from rice husk, wheat husk, maize husk, pine needles, cotton, and jute, as well as microbial sources. Extraction methods include alkalization, bleaching, and acid hydrolysis, allowing for cellulose extraction on various scales, addressing sustainability challenges in the industry.},
