While technically every material or substance is biodegradable, some take thousands of years to decompose while others take hundreds of years. To avoid causing the latter to wind up in landfills, manufacturing firms should try to utilize materials or manufacture products that degrade more quickly than those that decay over hundreds of thousands of years. This is because when they do not decompose quickly and wind up in landfills, they may release toxic methane into the environment.
When it comes to producing a product, having knowledge of goods with various times of degradation should assist production managers and businesses in general in making informed decisions about their products. As an alternative, they may use the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool to help them in their decision-making.
