10、9:2013(E)ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for w

11、hich a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all

12、 matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are cir

13、culated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

Determining the degree of disintegration of plastic materials in a pil

17、testWARNING Compost can contain potentially pathogenic organisms. Therefore, appropriate precautions should be taken when handling it.1 ScopeThis International Standard is used to determine the degree of disintegration of plastic materials in a pilot-scale aerobic composting test under defined condi

18、tions. It forms part of an overall scheme for the evaluation of the compostability of plastics as outlined in ISO 17088. The test method laid down in this International Standard can also be used to determine the influence of the test material on the composting process and the quality of the compost

19、obtained. It cannot be used to determine the aerobic biodegradability of a test material. Other methods are available for this (e.g. see ISO 14851, ISO 14852 or ISO 14855-1 and ISO 14855-2.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document

27、y, it shall have been demonstrated that a material can be biodegraded and disintegrated in a composting system (as can be shown by standard test methods) and completes its biodegradation during the end-use of the compost. The compost shall meet the relevant quality criteria. Quality criteria include

28、 low content of regulated metals, no ecotoxicity, no obviously distinguishable residues.3.8maturity of compostassignment of the maturity of a compost based on the measurement of the maximum temperature in a self-heating test using Dewar vesselsNote 1 to entry: It is expressed in terms of the so-call

29、ed “Rottegrad” (see 6.2.3.1).3.9total dry solidsamount of solids obtained by taking a known volume of test material or compost and drying at about 105 C to constant mass3.10volatile solidsamount of solids obtained by subtracting the residues of a known volume of test material or compost after incine

30、ration at about 550 C from the total dry solids content of the same sampleNote 1 to entry: The volatile solids content is an indication of the amount of organic matter present.4 PrincipleThe disintegration test is performed under defined and standardized composting conditions on a pilot-scale level.

31、The test material is mixed with fresh biowaste in a precise concentration and introduced into a defined composting environment. A natural ubiquitous microbial population starts the composting process spontaneously and the temperature increases. The composting mass is regularly turned over and mixed.

32、 Temperature, pH-value, moisture content and gas composition are regularly monitored. They have to fulfil certain requirements to ensure sufficient and appropriate microbial activity. The composting process is continued until a fully stabilized compost is obtained. This is usually the case after 12

33、weeks.The compost is visually observed at regular time intervals to detect any adverse effect of the test material on the composting process. At the end of the test, the maturity of the compost is determined and the mixture of compost and test material is sieved through 2 mm and 10 mm mesh sieves. T

The compost obtained at the end of the composting proc

35、ess may be used for further measurements, such as chemical analyses and ecotoxicity tests.5 Apparatus5.1 Composting environment5.1.1 GeneralThe composting environment may be either a pilot-scale composting bin or nets buried in a pilot-scale composting bin. The volume of each bin shall be high enoug

36、h for natural self-heating to occur. Sufficient and even aeration shall be provided by an appropriate air supply system.NOTE 1 To standardize conditions for the test, the composting trials can be run in bins which are placed in a climatic chamber with a constant chamber temperature or in insulated b

37、ins.NOTE 2 If during the spontaneous thermophilic phase the compost reaches temperatures higher than 65 C, the diversity of microbial species can be reduced. To restore a full array of thermophilic bacteria, the compost can be re-inoculated with mature compost (about 1 % of the total initial biowast

38、e mass) of recent origin (maximum 3 months old).5.1.2 Composting bins5.1.2.1 Volume and materialThe bins shall: have a minimum volume of 35 l; consist of a sturdy, heat-resistant and non-biodegradable material; not affect the composting process or the quality of the compost.5.1.2.2 DrainageThe drain

39、age shall consist of a layer of drains with a thickness of at least 5 cm at the bottom of the bins.5.1.3 Sample netsThe sample nets, if used, shall consist of mesh-like material with a mesh size of 1 mm made of non-degradable plastic which is resistant to temperatures up to 120 C.

41、re6.1 Actions before and during incubation6.1.1 Start-up of the test6.1.1.1 Preparation of biowasteAs a carrier matrix, use biowaste, if possible from the input material of a composting plant treating predominantly municipal waste, or, less satisfactorily, biowaste directly from households or grocer

42、y stores for example.NOTE Alternatively, a representative artificial biowaste with, for example, the following ingredients may be used: freshly mixed fruit and vegetable waste; rabbit feed (seeds and extruded dried-vegetable pellets); mature compost; sufficient water to attain a good moisture conten

43、t; a bulking agent (e.g. wood chips or bark).It is important that for all test series a homogeneous biowaste of the same age and origin is used. Reduce the biowaste to particle sizes of maximum 50 mm, for example by shredding or sieving. Depending on the type of waste, add about 10 % to 60 % of bulk

44、ing agent (structurally stable components such as wood chips or bark with a particle size between 10 mm and 50 mm).To ensure a good composting process, the biowaste shall meet the following criteria: the C:N ratio of the fresh biowaste/bulking agent mixture shall be between 20 and 30; the moisture c

45、ontent shall be above 50 % mass fraction, with no free water present; the volatile solids content of the total dry solids shall be above 50 % mass fraction; the pH shall be above 5.Adjust the C:N ratio with urea, if required.6.1.1.2 Preparation of the test materiala) If the purpose of the test is to

46、 measure the degree of disintegration of the test material and to determine the effects on the composting process and the compost quality, use the test material in an identical form (e.g. shape, thickness) as for the intended final use. Reduce large materials in size to 10 cm 10 cm for films and 5 c

47、m 5 cm for other products.NOTE As an option, a colouring agent (e.g. TiO2or Fe2O3) can be added to the test material for easier re-isolation.b) If the (optional) purpose of the test includes production of compost for ecotoxicity tests, use in addition to a) the test material in the form of fine powd

48、er or granules. The fine form is intended to prevent the mixture of biowaste and test material from getting too bulky.It is recommended that the test material be used as a powder with a particle size 60 C (fresh biowaste) Rottegrad II: Tmax50,1 C to 60 C Rottegrad III: Tmax40,1 C to 50 C Rottegrad I
