SOIL AND PLANTS

SOIL AND PLANTS
The performance of a given plant or crop is highly dependent on soil fertility as it grows.

The concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, and the distinction of carbon parameters, such as total organic and total inorganic carbon fractions (TOC or TIC), are important values for soil analysis and VELP therefore goal is to propose innovative solutions for these analytical measurements. 

We work closely with our customers to address the challenges related to: 
  • Carbon Determination (TOC and TIC) 
  • Carbon-nitrogen ratio 
  • CHNS Determination
  • Sample preparation for contaminant analysis

Determination of the Ultimate Aerobic Biodegradability of Plastic Materials in Soil with Respirometric Sensor System
Learn how to obtain the optimal rate of plastic material biodegradation in test soil by controlling soil moisture, as well as, determining the ultimate biodegradability of the material itself. A non-specific soil is used as the inoculum because the test simulates the processes of biodegradation that occurs in a natural environment.
