Rishi's invention is an eco-friendly, biodegradable diaper made of a corn-based polymer lining and an absorbent cellulosic inner padding. It is capable of biodegradation within days after use. It is thus healthier for the environment than the polyethylene-lined diapers currently made by manufacturers of disposable diapers.
