Biodegradable plastic is also known as bioplastic. The biodegradable process is the breakdown of plastic by microbial enzymes helping in the breakdown of polyplastic molecules into CO2 and H2O.
Compostable items are those that may break down naturally. They are specifically designed to decompose in a composting environment into nutrient-rich soil.
The key distinction between the two is that biodegradable materials can take a variable length of time to break down. Compostable materials, on the other hand, break down into natural elements within a defined time limit. However, it will require certain circumstances, such as those found in commercial composting plants, to do so.
