TL;DR: In this article, the biodegradability of high density polyethylene films (HDPE, LDPE and linear low-density polyethylenes (LLDPE) with a balanced content of antioxidants and pro-oxidants (manganese+iron or manganese+manganese + iron + cobalt) was studied.

TL;DR: The biodegradation of four poly(l-lactic acid) (PLA) samples with molecular weights ranging from approximately 34 to 160kgmol(-1) was investigated under composting conditions, and initial retardation was discernible in parallel with the increasing MW of the polymer.

TL;DR: In this paper, polyvinyl alcohol was biodegraded under denitrifying conditions with a microbial community originated from a municipal wastewater treatment plant, and the derived microbial consortium was capable of degradation under both denitrating and aerobic conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, two low density polyethylene films, which contained pro-oxidant additives, were investigated, one of them containing micro-milled calcium carbonate filler, and both materials were subjected to controlled thermal oxidation, the oxidation was obviously retarded in the filler-containing sample.

TL;DR: N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone degrading bacteria pertained to both Gram-negative and Gram-positive members, and belong to the Pseudomonas, Paracoccus, Acinetobacter and Rhodococcus genera were isolated from two samples of activated sludge.
