Testing and evaluation procedure for the rapid biodegradability of water by Pseudomonas putida

摘要

And test procedure for evaluating the rapid degradation of water by Pseudomonas putida. # The invention consists of a new kit and method for evaluating the "ready biodegradability" of contaminated water. The test is based on the use of capsules containing a suitable amount of bacteria Pseudomonas putida and lyophilized mineral salts are added to water the desired biodegradability evaluated. For three days incubation at 30 ° C, the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is monitored and the efficiency of biodegradability end of test is calculated. # This test is directed to the treatment of aqueous effluents, especially from industrial sector track biodegradability. The method solves the problems of repeatability and testing time of traditional methods.
