BIODEGRADATION STUDY OF POLYMERS UNDER THERMOPHYLIC CONDITIONS. APLICATION TO COMPOSTING AND ENVIRONMENTAL BIODEGRADATION
Entity:
Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid – Univ. Autónoma de Madrid
Type:
Spanish R+D plan
Leader:
Abrusci, Concepción
ICTP Personal:
Departamento de Química Macromolecular Aplicada. Catalina Lapuente, Fernando; Corrales Viscasillas,

Start:
1 January 2011
End:
31 December 2011
Summary:
In the present Project, several
thermophylic bacteria has been isolated
and characterized. These strains has
been used to study the biodegradation at
composting temperatures of commodity
polymer films previously photodegraded.
Budget: 16.300 €
