Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 The test method determines the ultimate biodegradability of test material after accelerated hydrolysis under conditions simulating an intensive aerobic composting process. It aims to determine the ultimate biodegradability of the hydrolysate by using a small-scale reactor. The degradation rate is periodically measured by determining the amount of the evolved carbon dioxide using gas chromatography. Firstly, the test material is hydrolysed under the constant temperature and humidity until the substantial loss of molecular weight in order to initiate the biodegradation process shortly. During the aerobic biodegradation of the hydrolysate, carbon dioxide, water, mineral salts and new microbial cellular constituents (biomass) are the ultimate biodegradation products. The carbon dioxide produced is continuously monitored, or measured at regular intervals, in test and blank vessels to determine the cumulative carbon dioxide production. The percentage biodegradation is
