Biodegradabilní materiály a jejich vliv na životní prostředí
Mrkvičková, Klára
Bachelors thesis is focused on biodegradable materials and their impact on the environment. In the literature section, biopolymers are first divided into groups according to biodegradability and sources. Finally, some industries in which biopolymers are used and the possibilities for removal are presented. At the end of the literature search, the work focused on the possible positive and negative impacts of biopolymers on the environment and life cycle assessment of these materials. Standards, certifications, and other environmental labels are also mentioned. In the practical part, an experiment was carried out with the decomposition of wet wipes under the conditions of a home compost. Wet wipes with a certificate of compostability in home compost and wet wipes without a certificate that were labelled as 100 % biodegradable by the manufacturer were examined. The goal was to verify the biodegradability of both products and compare their decomposition success rates.
