Thermophilic anaerobic biodegradation test and analysis of eubacteria involved in anaerobic biodegradation of four specified biodegradable polyesters

Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2013
The anaerobic biodegradability of 4 bioplastics powders (125–250 μm), polycaprolactone (PCL), poly(lactic acid) (PLA), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), were compared at 55 °C under aquatic conditions using our evaluation system reported previously, (the modified ISO 13975 method).

Anaerobic biodegradability of polyvinyl alcohol

Biotechnology Letters, 1993
Biodegradability of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) under anaerobic conditions was demonstrated using anaerobic river sediments and anaerobically treated activated sludge from a sewage treatment plant. PVA having molecular weights of 2000 and 14000 was over 60% biodegraded as determined by TOC.

Anaerobic Biodegradation of Hydrocarbons

2004
Hydrocarbons are a generic group of compounds composed exclusively of hydrogen and carbon. They represent one of the most important groups of chemicals to mankind because of their natural abundance, their industrial importance, their extensive use as a primary energy source throughout the world, and their toxicity.

Anaerobic biodegradation of hexazinone in four sediments

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2009
Anaerobic biodegradation of hexazinone was investigated in four sediments (L1, L2, Y1 and Y2). Results showed that the L2 sediment had the highest biodegradation potential among four sediments. However, the Y1 and Y2 sediments had no capacity to biodegrade hexazinone.

Anaerobic Benzene Biodegradation Linked to Nitrate Reduction

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT Benzene oxidation to carbon dioxide linked to nitrate reduction was observed in enrichment cultures developed from soil and groundwater microcosms. Benzene biodegradation occurred concurrently with nitrate reduction at a constant ratio of 10 mol of nitrate consumed per mol of benzene degraded.

Anaerobic biodegradability of carboxymethyloxysuccinate, a detergent builder

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1977
Abstract and SummaryControlled amounts of C‐14 labeled trisodium car‐boxymethyloxysuccinate, an experimental detergent builder, were added to a laboratory anaerobic digester system. The daily dosages were increased incrementally from 4 to 20 ppm, dosages being held at each level for 24 days.

Anaerobic Biodegradability and Treatment of Egyptian Domestic Sewage

Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2003
The anaerobic biodegradability of domestic sewage for four Egyptian villages and four Egyptian cities was determined in batch experiments. The results showed that the biodegradability of the Egyptian-villages sewage (73%) was higher than that of the cities (66%). The higher biodegradability of the soluble COD of village sewage (69%) as compared to that

Biodegradability of biodegradable/degradable plastic materials under aerobic and anaerobic conditions

Waste Management, 2008
A study was conducted on two types of plastic materials, Mater-Bi Novamont (MB) and Environmental Product Inc. (EPI), to assess their biodegradability under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. For aerobic conditions, organic fractions of municipal solid wastes were composted. For the anaerobic process, anaerobic inoculum from a wastewater treatment plant

Anaerobic biodegradability of aliphatic compounds and their quantitative structure biodegradability relationship

Science of The Total Environment, 2004
In this study, anaerobic biodegradability of 47 kinds of aliphatic compounds was tested and assessed in integrate. These aliphatic compounds were classified into readily, partially and poorly biodegradable compounds after their integrated assessment indices (IAI) were calculated.

Mesophilic anaerobic biodegradation test and analysis of eubacteria and archaea involved in anaerobic biodegradation of four specified biodegradable polyesters

Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2014
The anaerobic biodegradability of four bioplastics powders (125–250 μm), polycaprolactone (PCL), poly(lactic acid) (PLA), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), were compared at 37 °C under aquatic conditions using our previously reported evaluation system (the modified ISO 13975 method).
