This document specifies a method to determine the specific aerobic biodegradation rate of solid, non- water soluble plastic materials under mesophilic conditions.
NOTE The specific aerobic biodegradation rate (which, strictly speaking, is a specific mineralization rate, implying the assessment of the conversion of organic carbon into CO but neglecting biomass formation) is expressed as amount of carbon mineralized into CO , per unit time, per unit area.
The method described in this document does not provide information on the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of the tested samples. Biodegradability criteria for plastic materials under mesophilic conditions are provided for example by ISO 23517, and ISO 22403. The method described in this document shall be used to determine the DT50 only when the plastic material is proven to be intrinsically biodegradable using suitable standard specifications such as ISO 23517 and ISO 22403. Furthermore, the biodegradation rate determined on plastic materials whose ultimate biodegradation has not been proven, shall not be considered as a specific characteristic of the whole material.
This document only considers the evolution of CO as direct measurement of mineralization of the 2 tested sample.
