Abstract

Information on biodegradation kinetics of biodiesel fuels is a key aspect in current risk and impact assessment practice and in selection of appropriate remediation strategies. Unfortunately, this information is scattered, while factors influencing variability in biodegradation rates are still not fully understood. Therefore, we systematically reviewed 32 scientific literature sources providing 142 biodegradation and 56 mineralization half-lives of diesel and biodiesel fuels in various experimental systems. The analysis focused on the variability in half-lives across fuels and experimental conditions, reporting sets of averaged half-life values and their statistical uncertainty. Across all data points, biodegradation half-lives ranged from 9 to 62 days, and were 2–5.5 times shorter than mineralization half-lives. Across all fuels, biodegradation and mineralization half-lives were 2.5–8.5 times longer in terrestrial systems when compared to aquatic systems. The half-lives were generally shorter for blends with increasing biodiesel content, although averaging data from various experiments masked differences in half-lives between different fuels. This in most cases resulting in lack of statistically significant effects of the type of blends and experimental system. Our biodegradation kinetic data can be used for improved characterization of risks and impacts of biodiesel fuels in aerobic aquatic and terrestrial environments. Future experiments are required to quantify biodegradation kinetics in anaerobic conditions. Generally higher biodegradability of biodiesel fuels may suggest that passive approaches to degrade and dissipate biodiesel contaminants in situ, like monitored natural attenuation, may be appropriate remediation strategies for biodiesel blends.

Abstract

Background. In recent years disposable 'biodegradable bags' have substituted a large number of conventional polymer bags. Most commercially available bags are made of cheap thermoplastic materials (polyethylene, polypropylene), which have good mechanical properties, but are non-biodegradable. In order to improve the biodegradability of bags synthetic polymers are usually mixed with natural polymers, such as starch or pro-oxidants. However, the essential question whether biodegradable bags are really eco-friendly and can be decomposed by microorganisms in the environment has not been answered yet. The aim of the study was to determine the biodegradability of commercially available disposable bags. Material and methods. Three different plastic bags (polyethylene, polyethylene oxy-biodegradable, polyethylene biodegradable with addition of starch) and one paper bag were used in the study. Biodegradation of the bags was studied for 12 months in the soil environment (both with or without addition of the microbial agent). The efficiency of material biodegradation was assessed periodically using three different methods: CO2 evolution test, mechanical properties analysis and biofilm formation analysis. Results. The results suggest that only paper bags are completely biodegradable in the soil environment, as could be seen by their high mineralisation, deterioration of mechanical properties and formation of a bacterial biofilm on cellulose fibres. Polyethylene bags with the addition of starch were biodegradable, but to a lesser extent. Other bags were resistant to microbial degradation in soil. The addition of the microbial agent did not influence biodegradability of the bags under study. Conclusions. The so-called 'biodegradable' plastic bags under study could not be bioavailable to autochthonous microorganisms inhabiting soil. Although they are described as 'biodegradable' on their labels, they may not be as eco-friendly as their manufacturers declare. Therefore, it is important to develop new, biodegradable polymer materials that can be used for production of commercially available bags. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
