ABSTRACT:
A method is directed to a measurement of the biodegradation of a product organic carbon source by the measurement of the change in conductivity of a solution that has absorbed carbon dioxide evolved from the biodegradation of a product organic carbon source. The carbon dioxide that is absorbed is a direct measure of the biodegradability of the organic carbon source.
