Introduction

Plastic recycling technology includes material recycling, organic material recycling and energy recycling. Using biodegradable plastic is organic

One of the most valuable recycling methods in recycling.

Some determine the ultimate aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability of plastic materials in aqueous media, activated sludge, compost, digested sludge and soil

Of international standards have been published. These standards include ISO 14851, ISO 14852, ISO 14853, ISO 14855-1, ISO 14855-2,

ISO 15985 and ISO 17556. Due to the difference in test conditions, even if the same sample is used, standard users may have difficulty comparing

Biodegradability during the test. These differences may be due to compost preparation, test preparation methods, sample shape and/or size, etc.

Up. Accurate comparison of biodegradability performance data of the same plastic material is difficult to achieve, unless the conditions specified in the standard are precisely implemented.

To achieve consistency in the above standards, a unified method for preparing test samples is very important. The method described in this standard is plastic

The technique of sample preparation in material biodegradation test provides a consistent method.
