Experimental justification for converting paper, cardboard and plant waste into biomats.

The study is aimed at solving the urgent problem of processing waste intended for storage at MSW landfills as a result of human activities for the reclamation/restoration of disturbed territories as a result of the unauthorized placement of trade objects on land not intended for this (lawns, parks, lawns, etc.) in the urban environment. The most promising solution is to use paper and cardboard waste from office work and office work as one of the components of biomats with the inclusion of an organic component in the form of plant waste when caring for tree and shrub plantings (last year's compost of leaves and needles). As a result of a laboratory assessment of the applicability of paper and cardboard waste from office work and office work and plant waste in caring for tree and shrub plantings in the composition of biomats, it was established that there is no excess content of heavy metals and the presence of plant nutrients in the necessary quantities for the favorable growth of seeds and in protecting them from erosion processes and mechanical impact of birds and rodents.
