- Source:
The source of test organisms is activated sludge freshly obtained from a municipal sewage
treatment plant, receiving predominantly domestic sewage, located in the vicinity of the testing

Treatment
The freshly obtained sludge will be coarsely sieved (≥ 1 mm) and kept under continuous aeration
until further treatment. The sludge will be homogenized using a blender on medium speed.
Before use, the concentration of suspended solids (SS) in the activated sludge will be determined
in order to calculate the amount of sludge needed to achieve a final SS concentration of

- Test performed in open system: no
- Details of trap for CO2 and volatile organics if used:
The CO2 produced in each test vessel reacted with the CO2 absorbent in the rubber gaskets. As gaseous O2 was converted into gaseous CO2 that was absorbed, the gas pressure in the test system slowly decreased. This decrease in air pressure was measured by the respirometer heads and automatically converted into oxygen consumption (mg O2/L).(Appendix 3 and 4)
Measurements were recorded automatically for the duration of the study.

- Conclusions:
- First experiment.
The relative biodegradation values calculated from the measurements performed during the test period of the first experiment revealed 88 % and 86 % biodegradation of test material within 28 days, for vessel A and B, respectively (based on ThOD). The criterion for ready biodegradability was met, since biodegradation of at least 60 % was reached within 28 days. Biodegradation further increased to 116 % and 117 % by Day 60, for vessel A and B, respectively.
In the toxicity control, more than 25 % biodegradation occurred within 14 days (71 %, based on ThOD). Therefore, the test material was considered not to inhibit microbial activity.
Functioning of the test system was checked by testing the procedural control material sodium benzoate, which showed a normal biodegradation curve
Second experiment.
The relative biodegradation values calculated from the measurements performed during the test period of the second experiment revealed between 61 % and 77 % biodegradation (72 % on average) within 35 days (based on ThOD). Average biodegradation on Day 28 was 40 %. Since biodegradation of the test material of at least 60 % was not reached within 28 days, the criterion for ready biodegradability was not met.In the toxicity control, more than 25 % biodegradation occurred within 14 days (47 %, based on ThOD). Therefore, the test material was considered not to inhibit microbial activity.
Functioning of the test system was checked by testing the procedural control material sodium benzoate, which showed a normal biodegradation curve - Executive summary:
The results of the first experiment meet the criteria to label the test material as readily biodegradable, although the test material concentration is lower than recommended in the OECD 301F TG. Both vessels exceed the 100 % level, which is partially caused by the relatively low ThOD per vessel, since this leads to an unfavourable signal-to-noise ratio. Results up to 110 % biodegradation are normally considered to be scientifically defensible. Considering the relatively low ThOD in the test vessels of the first experiment, stretching this threshold to 120 % can be justified. This reasoning can be supported by evaluating the difference between the two blanks on Day 60 (actual value: 6 mg O2/L), which would translate to approximately 20 % biodegradation at a ThOD slightly below 30 mg O2/L. Subtracting this theoretical value from the biodegradation percentages obtained for the test material vessels would lead to 95 % and 96 % biodegradation in vessel A and B, respectively.
The results of the second experiment show a longer lag phase than the first experiment, which could indicate that the lag phase is concentration-dependent. Biodegradation after 28 days is <60 % (actual average value: 40 %), which does not satisfy the criteria to label the test material as readily biodegradable. However, by Day35 >60 % biodegradation is observed in each replicate. Since these results mean that the pass level criterion was fulfilled but not within 28 days, the results can be used to support inherent biodegradability.
Combining the results from both experiments, it can be concluded that Reaction mass of disodium 2,2’-oxydiethanesulfonate and sodium ethenesulfonate degrades rapidly and is clearly inherently biodegradable.Furthermore, then test material may qualify to be labelled as readily biodegradable based on the results of the first experiment.
Reference
Description of key information
The aerobic biodegradation of Reaction mass of disodium 2,2’-oxydiethanesulfonate and sodium ethenesulfonate was experimental measured following the OECD TG3.1 E ( Ready . Under the test conditions of OECD 301 E Reaction mass of disodium 2,2 oxydiethanesulfonate and sodium ethenesulfonate was biodegraded for 56 % after 28 days. In conclusion, Reaction mass of disodium 2,2’-oxydiethanesulfonate and sodium ethenesulfonate (700-978-5) was not readily biodegradable under the conditions of test.
In oder to evaluate whether the test substance can meet the 60% of biodegradation within 60 days (criteria for persistent). Two additional experiments were conducted according to the OECD 301 F. In the first experiment (115 mg/L start concentration) 87 % degradation was achieved after 28 days. In the second experiment (345 mg/L start concentrrtion) after 35 days more as 60 % degradation was noticed. Combining the results from both experiments, it can be concluded that Reaction mass of disodium 2,2’-oxydiethanesulfonate and sodium ethenesulfonate degrades rapidly and is clearly inherently biodegradable.Furthermore, then test material may qualify to be labelled as readily biodegradable based on the results of the first experiment.
