Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
not readily biodegradable
Executive summary:

The COD of the test substance was determined as 1.12 g O2 /g
and the BOD values after 5 and 28 days were both < 0.05 g O2 /g. The percentage degradation was
calculated as (BOD/COD)*100.
