    AI Overview
    Intelligent Compost Degradation Tester & Biodegradation Analyzer
    Biodegradability testers evaluate how quickly materials decompose via microorganisms using specialized instruments, such as respirometers and gravimetric systems, to monitor oxygen consumption or

     emissions. These testers, like the BPC Blue or GBPI AUTO GBDA-180, ensure compliance with standards like ASTM D6400, ISO 14855, and OECD guidelines. 
    Key Types of Biodegradability Testing Instruments & Services 
    • Respirometric Measuring Heads: Used to monitor oxygen consumption by microorganisms, crucial for evaluating aerobic biodegradability.
    • Compost Degradation Testers (Gravimetric Method): Measures carbon dioxide emissions to evaluate degradation in compost environments (e.g., ISO 14855-1).
    • High-Throughput Screening: Used by laboratories like Aropha to test many samples quickly, aiding R&D, and often compliant with ISO/IEC 17025:2017.
    • Seawater Testing: Specialized testing for degradation in marine environments (e.g., OECD 306). 
    Key Standards & Certifications 
    • ASTM D6400: A four-part test method specifically for evaluating compostable plastics.
    • ISO 14855-1/-2: Evaluates biodegradation of polymers in compost, covering pilot-scale and laboratory-scale testing.
    • OECD 208: Evaluates ecological impact (phytotoxicity/plant growth) after biodegradation. 
    Common Applications 
    • Environmental Impact Assessment: Validating that products are genuinely biodegradable, not just compostable.
    • Regulatory Compliance: Meeting standards for product disposal and environmental protection.
    • Product Innovation: Developing sustainable materials, such as plastics, packaging, and chemicals. 
    Companies such as RespirTek, Intertek, Aropha, and Smithers provide certified testing services.

    What are the standards for biodegradability testing?
    Biodegradability: At least 90% w/w of the material degrades in aerobic conditions within 12 months at 25 ± 5°C. Testing is performed in accordance with EN 14855. Disintegration: After 180 days in a controlled composting environment, at least 90% w/w of the material passes through a 2 mm sieve.Mar 5, 2026
