Biodegradation Solution | Measurement of biodegradability

Measure biodegradability

Tame-Water offers a complete range of laboratory measurements of the biodegradability of your total effluents, isolated substances, complex/formulated products.

Whether it is for compliance, environmental qualification, or for the marketing of products with complex substances, Tame-Water's Biodegradation range of measurements has the appropriate levels of proof and performance.

Biodegradation Solution completes the measurements by introducing the temporal dimension of toxicity persistence.

Benefits of Biodegradation Solution

Help with product development

Through its "biodegradation solution" service carried out in the laboratory, Tame-Water carries out analyses with the aim of evaluating and controlling the biodegradability of the substances produced.
The analysis of this biodegradability will provide essential information to measure the impact of the elements on water pollution and thus guide the choices of the industrialists:

  • reduce the volume of chemical substances, 
  • limit the use of potentially dangerous ingredients.

Analyses prior to certification

Through its "biodegradation solution" service carried out in the laboratory, Tame-Water carries out analyses with the aim of evaluating and controlling the biodegradability of the substances produced.

Resources

Biodegration Solution offers three levels of measurement are available depending on the objectives.

  • A fast organic load measurement (a few hours) which gives an accurate 5-day Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) equivalent with a high flow capacity.
  • A miniaturised but complete BOD5 measurement, allowing medium flow screening and qualification of biodegradation performance in accordance with NF EN 1899 standards.
  • A complete material balance in adapted chambers quantifying the rate of mineralisation, the rate of incorporation into biomass, the respective rates of volatile and remaining organic carbon.

Applications

  • The fine chemical and/or raw material industries can thus ensure that they can provide clear and reliable SDSs and characterisations to their most demanding customers.
  • Petrochemical manufacturers can easily consider complete biodegradability and ecological safety assessments of their matrices.
  • As for the actors of the formulation of active mixtures or natural extracts, they now have the possibility of qualifying their production even at the most advanced stages.
  • Similarly, cosmetics and parapharmaceutical companies can work directly on their finished products in terms of biodegradability and environmental safety.

In any case, this solution is decisive for all those who wish to minimise the impact of regulatory changes on their activity and to be in conformity with the future.
