Biodegradable vs. Compostable Packaging Materials

I loko o kā mākou moʻomeheu hoʻolei, pono nui e hana i nā mea i hiki ke emi i ka pōʻino no ko mākou kaiapuni; biodegradable a me ka compostable packaging mea elua o na ano hou o ka nohona omaomao. Ke nānā nei mākou i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka nui o nā mea a mākou e hoʻolei aku ai mai ko mākou mau hale a me nā keʻena he biodegradable a hiki i ka compostable, ua kokoke mākou i ka pahuhopu o ka hoʻolilo ʻana i ka Honua i wahi ʻoluʻolu me ka liʻiliʻi o ka ʻōpala.

I loko o kā mākou moʻomeheu hoʻolei, pono nui e hana i nā mea i hiki ke emi i ka pōʻino no ko mākou kaiapuni; biodegradable a me ka compostable packaging mea elua o na ano hou o ka nohona omaomao. Ke nānā nei mākou i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka nui o nā mea a mākou e hoʻolei aku ai mai ko mākou mau hale a me nā keʻena he biodegradable a hiki i ka compostable, ua kokoke mākou i ka pahuhopu o ka hoʻolilo ʻana i ka Honua i wahi ʻoluʻolu me ka liʻiliʻi o ka ʻōpala.

ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona nui o kahi mea compostable:

- Biodegradability: hoʻokaʻawale kemika o nā mea i CO2, ka wai a me nā minela (ma ka liʻiliʻi he 90% o nā mea pono e wāwahi ʻia e ka hana biological i loko o 6 mau mahina).

- Ka hoʻokaʻawale: ka hoʻoheheʻe kino ʻana o kahi huahana i mau ʻāpana liʻiliʻi. Ma hope o 12 pule ma ka liʻiliʻi he 90% o ka huahana e hiki ke hele ma o 2 × 2 mm mesh.

- Hoʻohui kemika: haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa o nā metala kaumaha - emi iho ma mua o ka papa inoa o nā waiwai i kuhikuhi ʻia o kekahi mau mea.

- Ka maikaʻi o ka compost hope a me ka ecotoxicity: nele i nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole ma ka compost hope. ʻO nā ʻāpana kemika/kino ʻē aʻe ʻaʻole pono e ʻokoʻa me nā mea o ka compost mana ma hope o ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana.

Pono kēlā me kēia mau kiko e hoʻokō i ka wehewehe ʻana o ka compostability, akā ʻaʻole lawa kēlā me kēia helu wale nō. No ka laʻana, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopuehu ʻia kahi mea biodegradable no ka mea pono e wāwahi ʻia i loko o hoʻokahi pōʻai compost. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, ʻo kahi mea i wāwahi ʻia, ma luna o hoʻokahi pōʻai compost, i loko o nā ʻāpana microscopic ʻaʻole hiki ke biodegradable, ʻaʻole hiki ke compostable.
