  • Explanation:

Biodegradable:

  • These can be broken down into simple, non-poisonous substances by the action of micro-organisms in nature

  • They can be recycled naturally as well as by man and their products do not pollute the environment

  • The wastes are made up of natural ingredients

  • They can produce useful products after biodegradation

  • They do not disturb the ecological balance in nature

  • They persist for small time intervals in the environment

  • Examples- paper, cowdung, wood crumbles etc.

NonBiodegradable:

  • These cannot be broken down into simple, non-poisonous substances by the action of micro-organisms in nature
  • They cannot be recycled naturally as well as by man and their products cause environmental pollution.
  • The wastes are made up of synthetic materials
  • They remain unchanged chemically as they are non-biodegradable
  • Most of the time they disturb the ecological balance in nature
  • They persist for longer time intervals in the environment
  • Plastic bags, synthetic fibres, cans etc
