2 Biotechnology Plastics 2
3 Biotechnology makes Plastics Polyhydroxyalkanoates 3
4 Biotechnology makes Plastics Bio-blocks through fermentation Starch Sugar Bio-based monomer (lactic acid) by fermentation polymerisation Polylactic acid (PLA) 4
5 Biotechnology gets rid of Plastics Composting (aerobic biodegradation) 5
6 Biotechnology gets rid of Plastics Anaerobic digestion 6
7 Biotechnology Plastics Standardisation 7
8 ISO TC61 SC5 WG22 ISO TC 61 Plastics SC5 Physical-chemical properties WG22 Biodegradability Convenor Dr. Hideo Sawada 8
9 ISO TC61 SC5 WG22 The interest is on the end-of-life of biodegradable plastics. How to measure biodegradability How to assess safe biodegradation in a given Environment When a plastic can be called compostable i.e. suitable for organic recycling 9
10 Working group 22 Biodegradation is multidisciplinary by nature. Chemistry, physics, biochemistry, agriculture, microbiology, ecology are all key elements in biodegradation. The development of biodegradation standards thus requires close teamwork among people in various fields 10
