AHMEDABAD – Three bacteria families have been isolated by the research team at A&R Institute of Biotechnology. The microorganisms have been said to break down polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. Researchers at the Institute are now moving their laboratory scale testing i...
BioSphere Plastic tests their product with 52-55% solids content and 45-48% moisture content, We also simulate drier landfills at 20 and 40% moisture content and 60-80% solid contents. Typical landfills are around 35% moisture content with premium biodegradation at 45% moisture content. Typical l...
EuPC is the EU-level Trade Association, based in Brussels, representing European Plastics Converters. Conducted a study spanning over six months testing the impact of Oxo-degradable technologies. The testing protocol had called for over 9.45 metric tons of plastic carrier bags and over 3,700 meas...
Preliminary results for BioSphere Plastic show 81% biodegradation in 6 months using their 201 additive. The results are fantastic and we continue to monitor these results along with other polymers including polyethylene and polypropylene. The testing is conducted under simulation of landfills in ...
In recent headlines companies making oxo-degradable plastic additives have stated that their products do not emit methane gas when placed into landfills unlike bioplastics.
