7.1 Preparation of inoculum
A fully aerated compost produced by a normally operating aerobic composting unit can be used as an inoculum. The inoculum should be uniform and free of large inertia
Substances such as glass, stone, and metal. After removing these impurities by hand, the compost was screened with a sieve having a pore size of 3 mm.
Composting can be obtained as follows. Use shavings, sawdust, mushroom beds, chaff or straw as a carbon source. Adding livestock manure as a compost
And mineralized inorganic salt nutrient sources. The above materials were placed in a container having a volume of about 1 m3 and mixed well. Carbon to nitrogen ratio required for composting
(C/N) is 15, and the carbon to phosphorus ratio (C/P) is 30. When the phosphorus content is insufficient, it can be supplemented with calcium superphosphate. Add water to make the moisture content 65%.
C/N, C/P and moisture content can be adjusted to appropriate values based on seasonal variations and climate differences. Composting from the container every week
Remove and refill the compost and replenish it as needed before refilling the compost into the container and continuing the test. The best time to use compost is
60d~120d.
Unexposed inoculants are generally used, especially in standard trials that simulate biodegradation behavior in real composting equipment.
Sometimes pre-exposure compost can also be used depending on the purpose of the test, as long as it is clearly stated in the test report (eg percentage of biodegradation =
X%, using pre-exposure compost), and the pre-exposure method is detailed in the test report.
The total amount of total dry solids and volatile solids in the compost inoculum was determined. The total dry solids should be 35% to 55% of the amount of wet solids.

To represent. Alternatively, if the material does not contain inorganic carbon, its carbon content can be determined by elemental analysis. The test material should contain enough
Machine carbon to produce the carbon dioxide needed for the determination. Typically 10 g of total dry solids per container contains at least 4 g of total organic carbon.
The test material is preferably in the form of a powder, but it is also possible to use a small piece of film or a fragment of a shaped article. The recommended maximum particle size is
250 μm.
7.4 Start the test
Prepare at least the following number of compost containers.
a) 2 test containers (VT) containing the test mixture;
b) 2 blank containers (VB);
c) Two containers (VR) for testing the activity of the inoculum with reference material.
The amount of test mixture of test material and inoculum depends on the nature of the test material and the size of the compost container. Total stem of inoculum
The total dry solids ratio of solid to test material was approximately 6.1. If an inert material is added, the ratio is not considered. The test mixture should have
Have the same moisture content as the inoculum. The moisture content of the test mixture should be set at 80% of the water content of the test mixture (WHC)~
90%. An inoculum of the same amount of total dry solids should be placed in each test vessel.
In a typical test, prepare a 500 mL container with a lid, weigh the inoculum containing 60 g of total dry solids, and add enough water to make the water
The content is 65%. Mix well and place the compost at room temperature for 24 h. Weigh 320g of sea sand and add water to make it have a moisture content of 15%.
The compost is then mixed evenly with the sea sand as an inert material. 10 g (dry weight) of the test material was added to the mixture and mixed well. Touch gently
I feel the feeling of soil. If necessary, measure the WHC of the test mixture according to ISO 11721-1, add water or dry air
Aeration treatment to adjust the moisture content of the mixture to about 90% of the WHC. The mixture is placed in a compost container. If you use meteorites
Inert material, prepared in accordance with ISO 14855-1.
When using composted compost stored in a cold storage as an inoculum, the compost needs to be pretreated before use. In a typical test, it will contain
60g of total dry solids composted compost is loaded into the compost bioreactor, and the water content of the compost is about 110% of the water holding capacity by adding water. Mixed
After homogenization, it was allowed to stand at room temperature for 24 h and then at 58 ° C for 24 h. Add the same volume of sea sand as the composted compost (dry weight
320g), evenly mixed. The moisture content of the sea sand was adjusted to 15% (the water holding capacity of the sea sand) before the addition. Add 10g of six water if necessary
Magnesium ammonium phosphate is used as a nitrogen source. The mixture was loaded into a compost bioreactor and incubated at 58 ° C for one week. To maintain aeration conditions and allow excess water
The mixture was evaporated and the mixture was stirred several times a day for 10 min. After one week, the moisture content of the mixture was adjusted to 90% of the water holding capacity. Mixed
The final mass of the compound should be 550g, but the final quality may change due to the use of compost (the different composting water holding capacity)
Chemical. 10 g of the test material (dry weight) was added to the mixture and uniformly mixed, and placed in a compost container.
When performing the ISO 14855-1 biodegradation test, composted compost with a moisture content of approximately 50% should be used in accordance with ISO 14855-1.
Each compost container was filled with 120 g of decomposed compost containing 60 g of total dry solids. Add 10g test material (dry weight) to the compost compost
And mix well. The mixture is placed in a compost container. If the test mixture dries too quickly, the aqueous inert material together with the mixture
Load the container. However, the aqueous material cannot be mixed with the test mixture.
The organic carbon content can be calculated from the total organic carbon (TOC) of the inoculum and the test material. A representative sample of the test mixture can be used
The total nitrogen content was determined (determined by the Kjeldahl method according to ISO 5663).
The compost container was placed in a test environment at 58 ° C ± 2 ° C, and aerated with water saturated with carbon dioxide. These bars
The parts can be satisfied by passing air through a carbon dioxide absorber containing sodium and lime and a humidifier containing water (see Appendix A and Appendix).
Record B). The air flow through each compost container was adjusted by adjustment and was between 10 mL/min and 30 mL/min.
A sufficiently large air flow should be used to ensure that each compost container maintains aeration conditions throughout the test period. Should be fixed
Check the air flow rate of each outlet with a bottle or soap bubble flow meter.
The method of treating the reference material is the same as that of the test material. The blank container contains only inoculum and sea sand. Blank container and test
The amount of inoculum and sea sand in the material container should be equal.
7.5 Determination of carbon dioxide emissions
1 mol/L of sulfuric acid was charged into the ammonia absorption bottle to remove ammonia from the composting container. Loading silica gel and anhydrous calcium chloride separately
Two water removal devices. The carbon dioxide absorber and the water absorbing agent are separately charged into the carbon dioxide absorbing device and the water removing device. Carbon dioxide absorption
The charge is preferably a mixture of the same amount of sodium lime and sodium talc. The water absorbing agent is preferably anhydrous calcium chloride. Use an electronic day with an accuracy of 10mg
The mass of the absorption device was measured flat (two devices were measured together). The amount of carbon dioxide released was determined based on the increase in mass of the device.
When the absorption amount of the reagent in the carbon dioxide absorbing device and the water absorbing device reaches 80% of its absorption capacity, the reagent is replaced. 80g equivalent
The mixture of soda lime and sodium talc has the ability to absorb approximately 15 g of carbon dioxide.
7.6 Inoculation stage
The amount of carbon dioxide in the exhaust gas of each compost container was measured during the test using the change in mass of the carbon dioxide absorber. Alive
The decomposition phase is measured at least once a day. In the stationary phase, measure at least once every two days.
The composting container oscillates once a week to prevent squashing and to ensure adequate contact of the microorganisms with the test material.
Visual inspections should be performed frequently to ensure proper humidity in the test mixture in the compost container without any free water or block. General, heap
There is no condensate on top of the fertilizer container to indicate that the system is dry. The moisture content can be measured with an appropriate instrument and kept at approximately
The test mixture holds 80% to 90% of the water. Use humid air or dry air to adjust the system to the desired moisture content. From the air intake
Water or water can cause significant changes in moisture content.
When the compost container is oscillated weekly and at the end of the test period, visual observations of composting properties such as structure, moisture content, and color should be recorded.
Ze, mold production, odor of exhaust gas and degree of disintegration of test materials.
The composting cycle does not exceed 180d and the temperature is maintained at 58 °C ± 2 °C. If the test material can be observed after 180d, there are obvious creatures.
Decomposition, the test period should be extended to a constant stationary phase. If the stationary phase occurs early, the test cycle can be shortened.
During the test, if necessary, an equal amount of compost may be added to each test container to re-inoculate it. The test report should clearly identify the heap
Fertilizer source and date of re-inoculation.
After the start of the test, the pH should be measured periodically.
If the pH is lower than 7.0, it is because the test material which is easily decomposed rapidly decomposes and acidifies the compost, which inhibits the bio-division of the material.
solution. At this time, it is recommended to measure the volatile fatty acid content and check the acidification of the components in the compost container. If every kilogram of total dry solids is produced
If the volatile fatty acid content exceeds 2 g, the test must be considered ineffective because acidification and microbial activity are inhibited. To prevent acidification,
Increase the amount of compost in all compost bins, or reduce test materials, increase compost or pre-exposure compost, and repeat the test.
7.7 Termination of the test
If the mass loss of the test material is to be determined, re-weigh each fill mixture (compost, sample and inert) at the end of the test
Composting containers for sexual materials such as sea sand. The mixture was taken from each container and the total dry solids and volatile solids were determined.
