Additional information

The inhibition of biogas production from anaerobic digestion of sludge was measured in the presence of Remazol Goldgelb RNL. The test was carried out at concentrations of 100, 400, 700, and 1000 mg/L test material. The anaerobic biogas generation is detected by the determination of pressure in the individual approach. The inhibition of gas formation in the presence of the test material is compared with untreated controls as a measure of the toxic effect of the sample to the bacteria.

The following inhibition was measured at the respective test substance concentrations:

Concentration [mg/L] inhibition [%]
1000 29
700 22
400 9
100 4

The EC50 of Remazol Goldgelb RNL for the inhibition of anaerobic organisms of activated sludge is more than 1000 mg/L
