They sound more at home on a beach than in a laboratory \u2013 but\u00a0shrimp shells\u00a0and\u00a0algae are just two of the natural materials scientists are working with to develop more sustainable types of plastic.<\/p>\n

In a sector predicted to be\u00a0worth around $7.2bn (\u00a35.5bn) by 2022, the race is on to develop materials that can take the place of oil-based plastics, which can have a detrimental effect on the oceans, wildlife and public health.<\/p>\n

Californian company\u00a0Full Cycle Bioplastics has developed a technique for turning food scraps and other organic waste into a compostable plastic; it claims the material will be as cheap as oil-based plastics when produced at scale.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s chief executive, Andrew Falcon, expects to have a demonstration plant up and running early next year. He says the invention has the potential to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and ease plastics pollution: in the ocean, or on land, the material would break down without leaching toxins into the environment, he says.<\/p>\n

The product belongs to a family of bioplastics known as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) \u2013 polymers generated by certain bacteria when they are fed foods, including sugars.<\/p>\n

First discovered decades ago, they have been held back from commercial success by high production prices. But technological breakthroughs and rising investment are shifting the landscape, and PHA production is set to nearly quadruple between 2016 and 2021\u00a0according to European Bioplastics<\/a>, a trade association.<\/p>\n

But as the range of materials grows, so do concerns about consumer confusion and greenwash, with campaigners warning that they aren\u2019t a magic bullet for our plastics crisis.<\/p>\n

Consumer Confusion<\/b><\/p>\n

Rob Opsomer, new plastics economy lead at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, the British charity set up by the former solo long-distance yachtswoman, believes that certain bioplastics can bring benefits if disposed of appropriately. But he worries that the baffling range of labels \u2013 compostable, biodegradable, bio-based \u2013 can leave consumers unsure of what to do with their bioplastics once they\u2019re finished with them.<\/p>\n

Most compostable plastics, for example, can\u2019t simply be chucked in your garden, he explains \u2013 they need to be sent to an industrial composting facility. And while people may assume that bio-based products are all biodegradable, many aren\u2019t, he adds. Coca Cola\u2019s PlantBottle, for example, though partly derived from sugarcane, is chemically identical to hard-to-breakdown polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. On the plus side, it can be recycled many times; on the downside, it won\u2019t breakdown for centuries.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important that any claims made for these products are really clear, so people won\u2019t be throwing things on the street because they think it will degrade,\u201d says Opsomer. \u201cIt won\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
