Food-based plastic has grown in interest with growing pressure on oil and gas resources.  This type of plastic has several disadvantages but comes with a number of advantages, and there are several industries that utilized food-based plastic in 2013.

The food-base plastic has many advantages because usually made by plant such as corn and sugar which make it ecofriendly and eatable for the animal. Bio plastic can also be used to make many marital for a lot of usage especially packaging which has 66.5% of 2013 usage and the other general usage like farming and medical usage and many more the most important Reason is bioplastic is reusable and take less energy to produce 

The bioplastic has many disadvantages as well like how most bio plastic has low melting point like how polylactic acid (PLA) has melting point of 46 degrees Celsius bio plastic the bio plastic need a lot of land and resources

the bio plastic should be

On The one hand, there are two advantages of food based plastics. First, they are renewable resources which it can remake by the farmers if they grow plants which also can continue indefinitely. Second,  food based plastic are better for the environment and the require for producing is needs much less energy than normal plastics.

 

On the other hand, food based plastic have some disadvantages points such as low melting point and not as environmental friendly. First, low melting pointe is a huge problem or disadvantage for food based plastic because the normal plastic needs 204 degrees Celsius. Some of the plants melt down if we just forget them in the car in a normal day. Second , not as environmental friendly as they shown that they break down in some conditions and if they are through in the rubbish they will take the same time to break down as the conventional plastic and according to the recycling industry that food based plastic is a pollutant and it takes a lot of money and time.The based plastic had an final argument about producing land and rescores that may produce actual food in the future. As the research of USDA the quarter of 2017 all grain production will go forward in making bio fuels. the number could increase if food based plastic become more known.

To start with there are two advantages of food based plastics. Frist, the plants they use for the food based plastics are grown by farmers and it’s a renewable resource. Second, they are considers as the eco-friendly way that good for the environment.  

On the other hand there are some disadvantages to food based plastics. First, some of the plants may have melting points well above 204 degrees such as, polyethylene and terephthalate.  Second, polylactic acid is used by many supermarkets for packaging and it can have a melting point of 46 degrees. As a consequence food based plastic are basically inappropriate for a wide range of applications.   

The based plastic had a final argument about producing land and rescores that may produce actual food in the future. As the research of USDA the quarter of 2017 all grain production will go forward in making bio fuels. The number could increase if food based plastic become more known.

     One of the two important points that show that food-based plastics are better than its petrol-based counterparts are that they are made from a renewable resource that can continue indefinitely. Another point is that these plastics are considered to be much better for the environment as they require less energy produce and release a fewer greenhouse gases in the process; Moreover, they are bio-degradable and break down into harmless organic compounds, giving them an easy advantage over conventional plastics. However, food-based plastics have a few disadvantages as well - one being their low melting point at 46 degrees Celsius. In addition, most food-based plastics only break down under specific circumstances making them less environmentally friendly as they seem. As visible on the chart, food-based plastics are mostly used by packaging industries at 66.5% and much less in other categories such as agriculture, medical, textiles, and other industries, with the least being electronics at 3.5%.

 

    In conclusion, food-based plastics have a few advantages that show that it’s renewable, requires less energy to make and is biodegradable. As well as some disadvantages limiting their use and show that they’re harder to break down. In my opinion, I think that food-based plastics make a better replacement in the long run as it is better for the environment  and as technology grows the disadvantages will decrease and the advantages will add up to make it a better replacement with no competition.

At the beginning, there are some main advantages for the food-based plastics that I will mention it now. Firstly, this food is made by a natural resource or source of energy that couldn’t depleted. Secondly, it does make the environment to be greater. And that because, it use less energy to produce it and to release the gases from the greenhouse in the process of producing. The food-based plastic is done by organic compounds. . On the other hand, there are some advantages to it.
