How many years does it take to decompose foil?
If you are talking about aluminum foil, it takes a very long time. Aluminum is already in its elemental form, so there is no 'compound' to break down. Aluminum does not rust or corrode under normal exposure to the environment. The small amount that oxides on on its surface act as an inhibitor to further oxidation. So, an aluminum foil that is buried in a dump would last longer than our lifetimes.
