I-PBAT yiplastiki enokubola. Ibhekisa kuhlobo lweeplastiki ezonakaliswe ziimicroorganisms ezikhoyo kwindalo, ezifana neebhaktheriya, ukungunda (umngundo) kunye ne-algae. Iplastiki efanelekileyo ye-biodegradable luhlobo lwemathiriyeli ye-polymer esebenza kakuhle, enokuthi iboliswe ngokupheleleyo yi-microorganisms yokusingqongileyo emva kokulahlwa, kwaye ekugqibeleni ibe yi-inorganic kwaye ibe yinxalenye ebalulekileyo yomjikelezo wekhabhoni kwindalo.
Ezona ntengiso ziphambili ekujoliswe kuzo zeeplastiki ezingonakaliswa yibhayoloji yifilimu yokupakishwa yeplastiki, ifilim yezolimo, iingxowa zeplastiki ezilahlwayo kunye neetafile zeplastiki ezilahlwayo. Xa kuthelekiswa nezinto zokupakisha zeplastiki zemveli, ixabiso lezinto ezitsha ezonakeleyo liphezulu kancinci. Nangona kunjalo, ngokwandiswa kolwazi lwendalo esingqongileyo, abantu bakulungele ukusebenzisa izinto ezintsha ezinokuboliswa ngamaxabiso aphezulu kukhuseleko lokusingqongileyo. Ukwandiswa kokuqonda ngokusingqongileyo kuzise amathuba amakhulu ophuhliso kushishino lwemathiriyeli entsha enokubola.
Ngophuhliso loqoqosho lwaseTshayina, ukusingathwa ngempumelelo kweMidlalo yeOlimpiki, uMboniso weHlabathi kunye neminye imisebenzi emininzi emikhulu eyothusayo ihlabathi, imfuneko yokhuseleko lwelifa lemveli lenkcubeko yehlabathi kunye neendawo ezibukekayo zesizwe, ingxaki yongcoliseko lokusingqongileyo yabangela ngeeplastiki sele ihlawulwe ingqalelo ngakumbi nangakumbi. Oorhulumente kuwo onke amanqanaba badwelise unyango longcoliseko olumhlophe njengomnye wemisebenzi yabo ephambili
