Okuqukethwe

1. Zivelaphi? (Imfucuza ye-Bagasse vs i-pulp yokhuni)
2. Kwenzekani Ngemva Kokuthi Uqedile Ngabo? (Ingabe Bazokhokha Noma Cha?)
3. Yikuphi Okufanele Ukukhethe? (Isiqondiso sokukusiza ukuthi ukhethe okunengqondo)

CUkufaka izitsha zokudla ezinobungani nemvelo kungaba nzima ngendlela emangalisayo—ngithembe, bengilapho. Ungena esitolo noma uskrole ku-inthanethi, bese yonke inketho ikhala ngokuthi “iyabola!” noma “iyabola” Kodwa uma ubhajwe phakathi kwamapuleti e-bagasse namapuleti ephepha, ingabe lawo mazwi abalulekile asho okuthile? Ngokusobala, angingedwa ozwa lokhu kudideka—abantu abaningi babuza umbuzo ofanayo lapho bekhetha phakathi kwalezi zinketho ezimbili ze-eco. Iqiniso liwukuthi, lezi zinketho ezimbili ze-eco zihlukile emhlabeni, futhi akukho ukukhetha “okungcono” okulingana nosayizi owodwa. Konke kuncike kulokho okudingayo, nokuthi uziqonda kahle kangakanani izindaba zazo zangempela.

Ake sichaze ukuthi yini eyenza zibe yingqayizivele: ukuthi zivelaphi, ukuthi zisebenza kanjani etafuleni lakho, kwenzekani kuzo ngemva kokuqeda, nokuthi iyiphi efanelana nokuphila KWAKHO. Ngoba ukukhetha okuhle kakhulu kwezemvelo akusikho okuzwakala kukuhle—yileyo ozoyisebenzisa ngempela, bese uyilahla ngendlela efanele.

Izinto Eziza Kuqala: Zivelaphi?

TUmehluko omkhulu phakathi kwamapuleti e-bagasse namapuleti ephepha uqala ekuqaleni—izinto zawo zokusetshenziswa. Kufana nezindaba ezimbili zokuphila ezihluke ngokuphelele: enye imayelana nokuguqula imfucuza ibe yingcebo, enye imayelana nokuguqula izinsiza ezizinikele. Abaningi bethu bayakukhathalela lokhu futhi—sonke siya ngokuya sihlose ukuthi imikhiqizo yethu ivelaphi, futhi sifuna ukwazi indaba engemuva kwezinto zokwakha.

Ake siqale ngamapuleti ephepha. Iningi lethu liyazi ukuthi enziwe nge-pulp yokhuni—ngezihlahla. Manje, ungangiqondi kabi: izinhlobo eziningi zamapuleti ephepha zisebenzisa i-pulp evela emahlathini aphethwe ngendlela eqhubekayo, noma ngisho nephepha eliphinde lasetshenziswa, okuyisinyathelo esiqonde ngqo. Kodwa ekugcineni kosuku, umsebenzi wabo oyinhloko ukuguqula i-fiber yokhuni (umthombo ozinikele—izihlahla ezikhuliswe noma ezivunwe ngqo ngale njongo, ezimweni eziningi) zibe ipuleti elilula, elisetshenziswa kanye. Futhi nansi imininingwane abantu abaningi abayiphutheli: cishe wonke amapuleti ephepha ane-coating encane yepulasitiki ye-polyethylene (PE) noma i-wax ukuze iwavimbe ekuvuzeni. Leyo coating? Kuyindlela yokwenza noma yokuphula indlela asebenza kahle ngayo—nokuthi aphuka kanjani kamuva.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, amapuleti e-bagasse ayiziqhawe ezingcono kakhulu zokuvuselela kabusha. I-bagasse iyinto eyomile, ethambile eseleyo ngemva kokuba iziqu zomoba zichotshoziwe ukuze kwenziwe ujusi—cabanga ngayo njenge-“imfucuza” yomoba. Esikhundleni sokuyishisa (okungcolisa umoya) noma ukuyilahla (okuvala izindawo zokulahla udoti), abakhiqizi baqoqa lo mkhiqizo ongaphansi kwe-fiber, bawuhlanze, bese bewubumba ube amapuleti ngaphansi kokushisa nokucindezelwa. Kulungile: lawa mapuleti enziwe ngento ebeyingaba udoti. Wonke amapuleti e-bagasse owasebenzisayo aguqula inkinga yokulahla ibe umkhiqizo owusizo—yingakho amapuleti e-bagasse avuselelwe kabusha ethola ukuthandwa okukhulu endaweni yokudla kwasemini.

Zisebenza Kanjani Etafuleni Lakho?

TI-heory imnandi, kodwa ake sibe yiqiniso—okubaluleke kakhulu ukuthi la mapuleti ahlala kanjani uma uphakela ukudla okuthandayo. Ngizihlolile zombili, futhi ake ngikutshele: umehluko wazo wesakhiwo awunakunakwa uma unqwabelanisa izimbambo ze-BBQ, uthela isosi ye-pasta, noma ufudumeza okusele. Ngiyazi ukuthi angingedwa kulokhu—sonke siyakhathalela ukuthi amapuleti ethu e-eco angakwazi yini ukwenza umsebenzi, ikakhulukazi uma kukhulunywa ngokuqina nokumelana nokuvuza.

Thatha ipuleti le-bagasse kuqala. Qaphela ukuthi liqine kangakanani—cishe njenge-ceramic, kodwa lilula. Lokho kungenxa yemicu yalo emide, egcwele kakhulu. Ngikhonze inkukhu eshisayo, ethosiwe ngamafutha kuyo, futhi ayizange igobe, iguqe, noma ingene emanzini. Iphatha ukudla okunzima, okunosawoti, okunamafutha njenge-champ—asikho isidingo sokuphinda kabili amapuleti noma ukukhathazeka ngokwenza ukungcola.

Manje khetha ipuleti lephepha elijwayelekile. Lilula, liyathambekela, futhi lilungele ukudla okulula okomile—cabanga ngamasangweji, ikhekhe, izithelo, noma ama-chips. Kodwa nansi into ebambekayo: uma ubeka noma yini esindayo noma emanzi kuyo, izinto ziya ngokushesha. Ngake ngakhonza isitsha sesobho epuletini lephepha (ungahluleli—ngangishesha), futhi kungakapheli nemizuzu emi-5, iphansi lase lithambile futhi ligobile, kwadingeka ngiphuthume ukulidlulisela esitsheni sangempela. Ukudla okulula nokomile? Kuhle. Okunye? Uthatha ingozi—ngaphandle kokuthi uthole ipuleti lephepha elinesimbozo esinzima.

Ukumelana nokushisa nokuvuza yilapho kwenzeka khona ukuhlukana kwangempela. Kumapuleti ephepha, lokho kuhlanganiswa esikhulume ngakho ngaphambilini kuyikho konke. Ipuleti lephepha eline-PE coating ejwayelekile lingaphatha ukudla okufudumele, kodwa ukhohlwe ngokulifaka kuma-microwave—lizoncibilika noma ligobe. Amafutha ashisayo? Lizophuma ekugcineni. Ngisho namapuleti ephepha ane-PLA coating e-compostable PLA angcono, kodwa asenemingcele—angaphatha ukudla okushisayo kancane, kodwa hhayi ukushisa isikhathi eside.

Amapuleti e-bagasse? Ayaphula lesi sigaba. Ukumelana kwawo kuvela esakhiweni sawo esiminyene, hhayi embozweni—ngakho ngokuvamile aphephile kuma-microwave (afanele ukuphinda afudumale okusele!), aphatha amafutha ashisayo nokudla okushisayo kalula, futhi awalokothi angene emanzini. Akhelwe impilo yangempela—ukudla esikuphekayo nesikudlayo, hhayi nje ukudla okulula “okuphelele” okomile.

Ngakho-ke uma kukhulunywa ngokudlala: Amapuleti e-bagasse ayizihlabani zokudla okuhlukahlukene, kwangempela—okushisayo, okubandayo, okunzima, okunosawoti, uma usho njalo. Amapuleti ephepha alungele ukudla okulula nokomile, kodwa ukusebenza kwawo kuyaphila noma kuyafa ngenxa yokumbozwa kwawo. Konke kumayelana nalokho okuphakelayo, nokuthi ufuna ukugwema ubunzima obungakanani.

Kwenzekani Ngemva Kokuba Uqedile Ngabo?

TIngxenye yakhe iningi lemikhiqizo ye-eco-dinnerware eliyishaya indiva—futhi iyona ebaluleke kakhulu. Ukukhetha i-eco-plate akusho lutho uma ungazi ukuthi ungayilahla kanjani kahle. Ngibone abantu abaningi bethenga amapuleti “angafakwa umquba”, bawaphonse emgqonyeni kadoti, bese becabanga ukuthi enza kahle—kodwa akusiyo indlela esebenza ngayo leyo. Ngiyazi ukuthi sonke sididekile ngalokhu—abantu abaningi babuza ngezinketho zokuphela kwempilo ngaphambi kokuthenga, bezibuza ukuthi bangawalahla kanjani kahle amapuleti e-bagasse nokuthi amapuleti ephepha angafakwa umquba ngempela. Ake sikucacise lokhu, unomphela.

Okokuqala, ake sixoxe ngokwenziwa komquba ezimbonini—indlela yegolide yazo zombili izinto, uma zenzelwe yona. Izindawo zokwenza umquba ezimbonini zinezinga lokushisa elilawulwayo, amazinga omswakama, kanye nama-microbes aphula izinto eziphilayo ngokushesha. Ipuleti le-bagasse elihlanzekile liyinkanyezi lapha: liqhekeka libe inhlabathi ecebile ngezakhamzimba ezinsukwini ezingama-90-180 kuphela. Akukho ukumbozwa, akukho zinsalela—ukungcola nje okungondla izitshalo.

Amapuleti ephepha angawenza umquba kahle, kodwa kuphela uma enesembozo esiqinisekisiwe (njenge-PLA) futhi engenazo izintambo zepulasitiki. Uma enaleso sembozo noma i-wax ejwayelekile ye-PE, ngeke aqhekeke kumquba wezimboni—azohlala lapho nje, njengepulasitiki. Ngakho-ke funa njalo izitifiketi ezifana ne-BPI noma i-OK Compost INDUSTRIAL ephaketheni. Lawo malebula asho ukuthi ipuleti empeleni lenzelwe umquba, hhayi nje ukuhlanzwa okuluhlaza.

Manje, ake siqale ngokukhuluma iqiniso ngokwenziwa komquba ekhaya kanye nezindawo zokulahla udoti—ngoba iningi lethu alikwazi ukufinyelela ezindaweni zokukhiqiza umquba zezimboni. Ebhokisini lomquba elisegcekeni noma endaweni yokulahla udoti, izimo zipholile, zimanzi, futhi azilawulwa kakhulu. Ukubola kwehle kakhulu—kokubili amapuleti e-bagasse kanye namaphepha, kungathatha iminyaka esikhundleni sezinyanga. Futhi nansi inkinga: ipuleti lephepha eline-PE coating? Ngeke liphinde liqhekeke ngendlela enenjongo. Lizoqhekeka nje libe amapulasitiki amancane, lingcolise inhlabathi namanzi. Yilokho okuwukuphela esikufunayo epuletini “elinobungani nemvelo”.

Ake siqede inganekwane enkulu: UNGAFAKI amapuleti e-bagasse noma ephepha ebhukwini lakho lokusebenzisa kabusha eceleni komgwaqo. Izitsha zokudla ezingcoliswe ukudla—ngisho nezinobungani nemvelo—ziyinto engcolile kakhulu emifudlaneni yokusetshenziswa kabusha. Zonakalisa wonke amaqoqo ezinto ezingasetshenziswa kabusha, okwenza zingaphinde zisetshenziswe. Ngakho-ke zisindise (kanye nendawo yokusetshenziswa kabusha) ekuhluphekeni: ukuphinda kusetshenziswe kabusha akuyona inketho lapha.

Iphuzu elibalulekile lapha? Ukusimama kwangempela akukhona nje ukuthenga umkhiqizo "we-eco"—kumayelana nokuwulahla ngendlela efanele. Hlola njalo izitifiketi zomquba, bese uthola ukuthi yini eyamukelwa yizikhungo zasendaweni. Uma ungenawo ukufinyelela ekuhlanganiseni umquba ezimbonini, noma iyiphi inketho izothatha isikhathi eside ukubola—kodwa okungenani ipuleti le-bagasse elihlanzekile ngeke liphenduke i-microplastic.

Ngakho-ke, Yikuphi Okufanele Ukhethe?

LSizoqhubeka nokujaha: Konke kuncike kulokho okudingayo, lokho okubheka njengokubalulekile, nokuthi uzowasebenzisa kanjani (futhi uwalahle) amapuleti. Ngihlanganise umhlahlandlela olula wokukusiza wenze isinqumo.

Amapuleti e-Bagasse vs Amapuleti Ephepha: Yikuphi Okufanele Ukhethe?

I-Anukukhetha okunolwazi

AEkupheleni kosuku, ukukhetha okuhlala isikhathi eside kakhulu yileyo otshelwa ngayo—futhi leyo ozoyisebenzisa njalo.

Isihluthulelo akusikho ukukhetha ipuleti "eliphelele" le-eco-plate—kuwukukhetha elifanela impilo yakho, bese ulilahla ngendlela efanele. Ngoba yonke inketho encane, enolwazi iyaphumelela.
