Answer:

Biodegradable plastics are plastics that can be decomposed by the action of living organisms, usually microbes, into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. Biodegradable plastics are commonly produced with renewable raw materials, micro-organisms, petrochemicals, or combinations of all three.

Disposable cutlery made from biodegradable plastic. While the words "bioplastic" and "biodegradable plastic" are similar, they are not synonymous. Not all bioplastics are biodegradable.

Biodegradable plastics are commonly used for disposable items, such as packaging, crockery, cutlery, and food service containers. In principle they could replace many applications for conventional plastics, however cost and performance remain problematic. Their usage is financially favorable only if supported by specific regulations limiting the usage of conventional plastics. For example, biodegradable plastic bags and shoppers have been compulsory in Italy since 2011 with the introduction of a specific law.
