Welsh Councils to Recycle Nappies and AHP Waste – Waste Mangagement World.

Disposable diapers are the third most common in a landfill we read.  There is a huge number of them used every day with no regard to what happens to them once dumped in the trash bin.   We have read about diapers made from compostable plastic but that is insignificant in actuality as compostable plastics do not biodegrade in landfills.  They last as long as conventional plastics.  This is the first we have read of disposable diapers being reused and reclaimed for use in other products.  Well done.
