(3) Product Principle

This experimental system can simulate the biodegradation of bio-based materials under aerobic composting conditions. In an aerobic environment, microorganisms metabolize the bio-based material as a carbon source, consuming oxygen and producing inorganic products such as carbon dioxide and water; the resulting carbon dioxide is then absorbed by the alkaline substance in the absorption bottle. Once the automatic weighing sequence is initiated, the robotic arm lowers the mirrored stainless-steel platform, allowing the absorption bottle to rest naturally on the load cell. The sensor collects weight data and transmits it in real time to the PLC controller. Upon completion of the weighing, the robotic arm lifts the absorption bottle, ensuring complete separation from the load cell. After a preset time interval, the system automatically starts the next weighing cycle. By continuously monitoring the weight of the absorption bottle via the automated weighing unit, the increase in weight corresponds to the amount of carbon dioxide released during the sample’s biodegradation. The ratio of the measured carbon dioxide release to the theoretical carbon dioxide release—expressed as a percentage—represents the biodegradation rate. 。

(3) Product Principle

Microorganisms consume the oxygen in the culture flask and produce carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is absorbed by quicklime, causing the pressure inside the flask to decrease and generating a pressure differential across the manometer. This differential closes the electrolytic circuit, leading to the electrolysis of the copper sulfate solution in the electrolytic cell, which produces oxygen that replenishes the culture flask and gradually restores its pressure to the initial level. The amount of electric charge passed into the electrolytic cell is directly proportional to the volume of oxygen generated; a coulometer accurately measures this charge, enabling calculation of the oxygen consumption. The ratio of the actual oxygen consumption to the theoretical oxygen consumption yields the biodegradation rate of the test sample.
