      Recycling Your Construction WastePlasterboard is a type of material composed of an inner layer of gypsum that comes between a pair of outer layers of lining paper. It can be sourced from a number of places which include demolition sites and refurbishment projects.

      By itself, plasterboard waste is not hazardous. However, it becomes a threat when it is combined with organic waste and gains exposure to rain under a type of environment that is anaerobic. In this condition, disposing a plasterboard is subject to local regulations as opposed to landfills disposal.

      Basically, it is the gypsum that is found in the plasterboard which has affected the change in plasterboard waste management regulations. This type of material, when disposed together with biodegradable wastes, can cause the production of toxic and odorous hydrogen sulphide gas.
