ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY ANIMAL WASTE BAG

Abstract

The renewable, biodegradable, and compostable waste manure bag made from virgin or recycled kraft paper specially designed for the collection of animal waste, such as domestic dogs, will allow the user quickly and easily collect and dispose the pet waste. The waste bag has an innovative design and is environmentally friendly. Further, the waste bag has a feature promoting its closure as to isolate the pathogens for better waste management, containing in its formulation a variety of reagents on its inner surface to neutralize pathogens and aromas. The same material can accelerate the composting and reintegration into the soil.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG that comprises a one-piece, disposable, closeable or sealable composite paper bag that is designed for the handling, collecting, and disposing of pet waste. It can contain a variety of 100% biological or chemical reactants in the form of resins applied on its inner surface and is a bag that can be sealed by joining its handles, making the contents isolated from the outside.

[0037] The resulting bag and waste contained therein can be safely disposed of or added to the compound to be fully and biologically transformed.

[0038] The ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG has a way of being shaped after an unfolding piece of cardboard forming a pair of locking handles with the highlight of a conformable shovel that is detachable. It can be made from virgin paper or card stock or of recycled materials to achieve 100% biological, biodegradable, and compostable set. The reactants in the resinous films are designed to adequately contain and neutralize the content or animal waste that can subsequently be more properly composted or reintegrated into the soil.

[0039] The presently described invention is called ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG and is formed in a manner that results in design that has a folding handle and a shovel that can be detached from the handles themselves, the closures, and the handle proper, the set being comprised of handles, the shovel, and the bag itself. It is intended to provide an environmentally friendly animal waste collector consisting of paper and paperboard with 100% biodegradable and compostable multilayer coatings or films. The paper layer material may be composed of more than one virgin or recycled, compostable layer which will aim to make the paper waterproof and additionally provide a reactant or containment function as to interact with the feces or waste material contained within the bag, biologically neutralizing the content and its odor.

[0040] The outer layer of the bag made in accordance with the current ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG may contain a protective film or resin that is 100% biodegradable or that is obtained by means of coating pore closure rollers, mitigating odor permeability and providing transient impermeability to the material. The inner layer or layers may consist of a porous or nonporous laminated paper or can be coated with special resins that are impregnated with bactericidal biological products.

[0041] The set that completes the ideal constructive variant of the ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG is suitable for the collection, transport, disposal, or the composting, but may also be disposed of—preferable not—by flushing down the toilet and may effectively help to reduce or eliminate the contaminating animal waste and its reflections of environmental pollution.

[0042] The ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DISPOSABLE WASTE BAG is ideally made of from 100% renewable (cellulose), 100% recyclable, 100% biodegradable and 100% compostable materials and when used and disposed of correctly, 100% composted material ready for use as fertilizer.
