ScienceDaily: As England gets set to start paying for plastic bags, researchers at The Open University (OU) are making inroads into developing alternative biodegradable materials that could potentially replace fossil fuel derived polyethylene single-use carrier bags in the future. A team at the OU's Integrated Waste Systems (IWS) research group is working on an ambitious partnership worth around 250,000 with a UK SME, and funded by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, to develop a new type...

NEWS & ANALYSIS: Biodegradable Electronics Debut
2015-07-02 17:41:53| Trucking - Topix.net
Today our landfills are being overrun by discarded electronic devices fabricated on silicon substrates that do not biodegrade for decades or even longer if left in their sealed plastic cases. The Electronics TakeBack Coalition , for instance, estimates that over 55 million tons of old smartphones, personal computers, televisions and other silicon-based devices are discarded each year, only about 14 percent of which are recycled.
