Biowaste is degradable waste, such as food waste, food that has gone bad, fruit and vegetable peels, kitchen paper, coffee grounds and tea bags.

Collect mixed waste and biowaste in their own bags. Close the bags and take them to their own waste containers. Put the bags inside the containers and close the lid.

Biowaste is processed into compost. Some municipalities extract biogas from biowaste, which is then converted into electricity and heat.
