Water quality - Evaluation of ultimate aerobic biodegradability of organic compounds in aqueous medium by determination of oxygen demand in a closed respirometer (ISO 9408:1999); German version EN ISO 9408:1999

Summary

The document specifies a method, by determination of the oxygen demand in a closed respirometer, for the evaluation in an aqueous medium of the 'ultimate' biodegradability of organic compounds at a given concentration by aerobic micro-organisms. The conditions described in this document do not always correspond to the optimal conditions for allowing the maximum degree of biodegradation to occur.
