ASTM D-5864 Standard Test Method for Determining Aerobic Aquatic Biodegradation of Lubricants
|
|
Shown is the biodegradation section of RLI's environmental lab. This setup is capable of measuring the biodegradability of six sample formulations in triplicate along with a vegetable oil control and blank over a 28 day period. Biodegradability is determined by the metabolism of the sample oils into carbon dioxide by microorganisms. |
