Biodegradability of degradable plastic waste
Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2005Plastic waste constitutes the third largest waste volume in Malaysian municipal solid waste (MSW), next to putrescible waste and paper. The plastic component in MSW from Kuala Lumpur averages 24% (by weight), whereas the national mean is about 15%. The 144 waste dumps in the country receive about 95% of the MSW, including plastic waste.

Converting Petrochemical Plastic to Biodegradable Plastic
2020Current plastic waste management strategies focus on the prevention and reduction of waste, followed by reuse, recycling, energy recovery, and disposal as the least preferred option. An option that should be included in these strategies is the use of biodegradable counterparts.

New perspectives in plastic biodegradation
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2011During the past 50 years new plastic materials, in various applications, have gradually replaced the traditional metal, wood, leather materials. Ironically, the most preferred property of plastics--durability--exerts also the major environmental threat.

The technical requirements of degradable plastics are considered in the light of public concerns about their use and misuse in waste and litter control. Essential requirements are that the degradation process should be controllable and that it should lead to lower molar mass oxidation products which can be assimilated by microorganisms to give biomass ...
