These biodegradable wastes are animal or plant matter that breaks down naturally with exposure to microorganisms, heat, and oxygen. 

There are other ways also for their decomposition: 

a) Collect all the material and burn it in a pit. 

b) React it with some strong acid. But both these ways are not good for nature. 

c) Recycling them into a usable material which is called composting. It is done is a sealed container (no presence of air). It will get converted into humus-like material which is a good fertilizer for plants. This step is eco-friendly.
