BaFNet: A Soil Erosion Control Net Using Banana Pseudo-stem Fibers
Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all landforms determined by four fundamental factors: soil characteristics, vegetative cover, topography, and climate. Various soil erosion control is processed to lessen and delay from happening using different parts of a plant. Hence, this study aimed to produce BafNet and compare it to Coconet in terms of water absorption capacity, tensile strength, and net efficiency or soil reduction efficiency. It was revealed that the banana pseudo-stem fiber (BPSF) rope could absorb more water than the coco fiber rope by 39%. Also, it is stronger than the coco fiber rope by 165.2 N and 5.85 MPa for a one-meter rope having a diameter of 6 mm. For torrential rain on a silty type of soil at a 30° slope, the results exhibited that BafNet is more efficient than the Coconet by 11%.
