Eco friendly garbage bags are a novelty that can eliminate the problems caused by countless non-degradable plastic garbage produced by humans. Almost everything we bring home from the store is packaged in non-degradable plastic. We use plastic bags to dispose of garbage almost every day.
Every inhabitant of the earth "produces" 1 ton of garbage every year. On average, a family uses about 1,500 plastic bags each year. The problem of polymer waste is particularly prominent in large cities. Waste is collected and disposed of in landfills, where it is left for hundreds of years. The decomposition of conventional polymers can take up to 200 years.Therefore, people's attention is gradually turning to
biodegradable and environmentally friendly garbage bags.
Eco friendly garbage bags instead of plastic garbage bags
The problem of handling plastics can be solved in the following ways: ordinary plastic garbage bags need to be replaced with biodegradable
environmentally friendly garbage bags. The use of biopolymers in all types of plastic packaging will ensure that they are used in weeks to years, not hundreds of years. The good thing is that many modern companies have mastered the production of environmentally friendly plastics.
The polymer decomposes to form volatile and solid products that will not damage the environment. Their decomposition mechanism is as follows: one is the oxidation caused by light, heat and mechanical load; and then the biodegradation caused by microorganisms.
Biodegradable plastics are usually tested to ensure that they will degrade through oxidation and biodegradation in the environment. Different companies test various environmental materials. One of the test methods is accelerated aging-the material is subjected to high humidity, high temperature and ultraviolet radiation for hundreds of hours. If the experimental results show high performance, this bioplastic can be used in production.
Features of environmentally friendly garbage bags
Their decomposition takes 1.5-2 years.
Their degradation products are non-toxic.
They can be placed in compost.
They can be processed again.
They are as strong as standard plastics, and in some cases even exceed standard plastics.
Another noteworthy feature: You can even find biopolymer bags for food; just look for someone with a food contact certificate.
Trillions of plastic bags are discarded in landfills, increasing the pollution of our planet. To solve this problem, environmentally friendly polymers that can be decomposed into safe ingredients within a few years have been developed. Many companies have already started the commercial production of these eco-friendly bags. These new products help save our planet from the imminent threat of "junk disaster". Using biodegradable environmentally friendly garbage bags, you will also contribute to saving our planet from waste.
