The development of national and international standards for biodegradable plastics

6 The development of national and international standards for biodegradable plastics [Pg.323]

In practice the end of the induction period is the point at which biodegradation begins and this in turn is determined by the post treatment the [Pg.323]

Identification of packaging constituents, dry solid content, ignition residues, and hazardous metal residues. [Pg.324]

Biodegradability 90% of the total theoretical CO2 evolution in compost or simulated compost in six months. [Pg.324]

These criteria were arrived at pragmatically in association with the composting industries in order to cause minimal interference with the commercial operations of the industiy. Criteria 2, 3 and 5 are subjective assessments associated with compost quality and have little to do with ecological behaviour. For example, criterion 2 is concerned with biological burning of the plastic to carbon dioxide in order to improve the visual appearance of the compost. This has nothing to do with the agronomic [Pg.324]
