BPC® Blue The perfect tool for determining the biodegradability of materials

The Ultimate Choice for Material Biodegradability Assessment BPC Blue BPC Blue is a state-of-art laboratory instrument specifically designed to determine the aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability of various biodegradable plastics and polymer materials in a wide range of simulated environmental conditions. The instrument is fully compliant with the most important ISO, European and American standards for biodegradability evaluation in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Featuring an automatic operation and an intuitive user-friendly design, the BPC Blue enables almost anyone to carry out...

BPC Blue working principle Aerobic Negative pressure induced by CO2 absorption, the O2 is displaced from the gas bag CO2 is absorbed in a NaOH solution, resulting in a negative pressure inside the bottle CO2 The flow cell is opened, allowing trapped gas to be released Microbes degrade the material in the presence of oxygen, simultaneously producing CO2 and H2O The opening is detected and utilised to calculate the volume of gas O2 collected under flow cell Reactor bottle with inoculum and sample Multifunction agitation system enables effective and precise mixing in the reactor Valve for...
