GB/T 22047-2008 Plastics. Determination of the ultimate aerobic biodegradability in soil by measuring the oxygen demand in a respirometer or the amount of carbon dioxide evolved (English Version)
This standard specifies the method for determining the final aerobic biodegradability of plastic materials in soil by measuring the oxygen demand in a closed respirometer or measuring the amount of released carbon dioxide. This standard obtains the optimum degree of biodegradation rate by adjusting the humidity of the test soil. If the non-pre-exposed soil is used as the inoculum, this test only simulates the biodegradation process in the natural soil environment; if the pre-exposed soil is used, this standard can be used to determine the potential biodegradability of the test material. This standard applies to the following materials: - natural and (or) synthetic polymers, copolymers or their mixtures; - plastic materials containing additives such as plasticizers, pigments or other compounds; - water-soluble polymers; - materials that do not inhibit the activity of microorganisms in the soil under the test conditions, the inhibition can be measured using inhibition control or other appropriate methods (see ISO 8192:1986). If the test material has an inhibitory effect on the activity of microorganisms in the soil, a lower concentration of the test material, other inoculum or pre-exposed soil can be used.
