BIOMASS PELLETS : Production of biomass pellets  Even as our landfills and oceans slowly fill up with dirty debris that are unlikely to decompose for the next five hundred years, scientists worldwide have woken up to the direexigency of climate change. One of the many happy outcomes of such environmentally aware scientific innovation is the 100% compostable garbage bag. What makes this bag extra-special is the fact that it is made completely from plant based starches- either cassava, rice, potato or corn starch, which is what makes it a viable alternative to other petroleum-based plastics that pollute the soil and with it, the crop as well. The 100% compostable garbage bags by Ecolastic are made of cornstarch, and unlike other garbage bags that remain in our soil and water without breaking down for decades or even centuries, these bags take no more than 180 days to turn into fertile compost. Furthermore, on decomposition, they enrich the soil instead of depriving it of essential nutrients or polluting it even further. The 100% cornstarch-based garbage bags manufactured by Ecolastic have been created in collaboration with DRDO and have been approved by organizations such as the ISO, CIPET and CPCB.
