Large plastic fragments were sampled during the composting experiment and chemically identified by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. The dataset contains the photos of...

This dataset contains general information about the full scale composting experiment: coordinates of the composting site, description of the compostable materials, short...

The evolution of the thermal stability of the materials during the composting process was assessed by Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) using a Mettler TGA2 apparatus (Mettler...

The initial amount of biowastes was separated in two windrows of 20 t each. The materials batch was mixed with the compostable plastics (1.28 wt%), the control batch was used as...

Plastics fragments of a size larger than 10 mm sampled during the composting experiment were identified using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), using a Perkin...

The biodegradation of the different types of plastics was analyzed according to NF ISO 14855-1 (2012) for industrial composting conditions (58 °C, 50 % humidity) using a...

The materials batch of the composting experiment containing the compostable plastics was regularly sampled during the process. These sampling was done using the standardized...

The surface properties, fragmentation and the microbial attachment to the surface were be observed in the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM observations were performed...

The life-cycle assessment (LCA) methodology was used to assess and compare the environmental performance of biodegradable packaging in two end-of-life processing treatments:...
