IDEA’s one-task devices are the essence of our modular technology performing several tasks such as
stirring/mixing, sensor integration, gas/liquid handling, pumping, light control for photo-bioreactors, temperature control. Some devices can be “stand-alone” whereas others need to be integrated into an equipment (at least one Industrial Grade PC, IGPC). Just click on the device and see what task can perform.

Respirometers are testing devices to assess properties of materials or optimize bioprocess parameters. They are mainly of 4 distinct types, depending on the measured parameters:
A) CO2 in the headspace,
B) O2 in the liquid phase,
C) pressure in the headspace,
D) volumes and flow rates of gas.
CO2 (A) and O2 (B) respirometers are typically applied to aerobic processes, maintained as such by continuous or intermittent aeration. Differently, respirometers C and D can be applied to both aerobic (O2 consumption), fermentative processes (CO2 production, H2 productions) and biogas production (CH4 and CO2 production).
IDEA is the only company that has developed all the 4 technologies to provide unconditional advice depending on the test the user needs to carry out.
The choice of the respirometer must be made based on the application, the requirement to follow an ISO standard and the user's confidence in a specific technology.
Select by the application or contact us for a custom respirometer:
- PLASTIC respiromiter - to asses plastic biodegradability and compostability;
- BIOGAS respirometer - to carry out BMP/SMA/ATA assays;
- SOIL respirometer - to asses the microbial activity in soil and the effect of nutrients/pollutants/…
- OUR respirometer - to study aqueous systems and calculate OUR (Oxygen Uptake Rate).

PLASTIC respirometry 1761918
ENVIRONMENT PLASTIC BIODEGRADABILITY TEST EQUIPMENT
The PLASTIC respirometer has been developed for testing plastic/bioplastic biodegradability according to 4 different configurations:
- BASE - based on NIR CO2 tracking and intermittent aeration to restore initial test conditions.
- INTERMEDIATE - based on the the IDEAFLOW device and tracking pressure/volume in accordance with ISO 14851 (determination of ultimate aerobic biodegradation of plastic materials in an aqueous system), ISO 17556 sec. 7.1 (determination of ultimate aerobic biodegradation of plastic materials in soil), ISO 13975 (determination of ultimate anaerobic biodegradation of plastic materials in controlled slurry digestion systems) and ISO 14853 (determination of ultimate anaerobic biodegradation of plastic materials in an aqueous system).
- ADVANCE - based on NIR CO2 tracking and continuous aeration in accordance with ISO 14855-1 (plastic biodegradability in controlled composting conditions), ISO 17556 sec. 7.2 (determination of the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of plastic materials in soil) and optionally with ISO 14852 (plastic biodegradability in aqueous medium), ISO 22404 (aerobic biodegradation of non-floating materials exposed to marine sediment), ISO 19679 (aerobic biodegradation of non-floating plastic materials in a seawater/sediment interface) and ISO 23977-1 (aerobic biodegradation of plastic materials exposed to seawater).
- CUSTOM - a combination of tracking tools (CO2/pressure/volume).
