Biodegradable waste includes any organic matter in waste which can be broken down into carbon dioxide, water, methane or simple organic molecules by micro-organisms and other living things by composting, aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion or similar processes. In waste management, it also includes some inorganic materials which can be decomposed by bacteria. Such materials include gypsum and its prodcts such as plasterboard and other simple organic sulfates which can decompose to yield hydrogen sulphide in anaerobic land-fill conditions.[1] [2]

The list of biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste products found in a school are as follows:Biodegradable wastes:- Fruit peels and food wastes, Loose and torn waste paper pieces, paper containers, chalk boxes, pencil scraps, dropout leaves and twigs, human wastes, etc.

The pit should be covered with soil and watered. When the pit is full, a mixture of dung and clay should be laid as an outer cover for a few weeks. After a few weeks, when the garbage has turned black in colour and no foul smell is emitted, it means rotting of garbage is complete and compost is ready to use.

Explanation:

Biodegradable waste

Substances can't be broken down by biological processes

These substances can't be broken by the actions of bacteria or Saprotrophs.
