A fresh sample of activated sludge was collected on 15th Oct. 2019 from the aeration tank of the Zhu Yuan Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant in Shanghai which treats predominantly domestic sewage. Use the sludge within day of sampling and the activated sludge was kept aerobic until use.
Treatment of inoculum:
Coarse particles were removed by filtration through a fine sieve (1 mm) and the sludge was kept aerobic thereafter. After removal of any coarse particles, the sludge was separated by centrifuging for 20 minutes at 4000 rpm, 4°C. The supernatant was discarded. The sludge was then washed in the mineral medium. The re-suspended sludge was then centrifuged after thorough mixing, supernatant discarded and the washed sludge was re-suspended in a further volume of mineral medium. This procedure was repeated 3 times. A small amount of the washed sludge (0.4g) was weighed and dried by moisture meter at 10500 for 1 h to calculate the dry weight which was 5.50%.
Sludge suspension:
127.27g wet sludge(dry matter weight was about 7g) was suspended in 7L mineral medium to obtain the concentration of 1 g dry matter/L. The sludge suspension was used as the inoculum. The final concentration of sludge in test solution was 0.25 g dry matter/L (0.25g SS/L).

To prepare the stock solution of reference substance, 2000.1mg of diethylene glycol was dissolved in 1 L mineral medium and the concentration of stock solution was 2g/L. The final concentration of reference substance in the test system was 200mg/L.
Sampling
The losses due to evaporation were immediately replaced prior to each sampling. Analysis of DOC was carried out by the DOC analysis on 3h and Days 3, 6, 10, 14, 17, 22, 27 and 28.
Determination of temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen (DO)
The temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen of each flask was determined on each day of sampling. Keep the temperature in the range of 20-24 0C and the dissolved oxygen higher than 1 mg/L, adjust to pH 6.5-8.0 with NaOH (40 g/L) or H2S04 (50 g/L) if necessary. - Parameter:

- During the 28-d test, the temperature was in the range of 20.0-20.7°C (in the range of 20-25 °C), the pH of test vessels was between 6.594-7.946, and the dissolved oxygen (DO) of each test vessels was from 6.57 mg/L to 8.70 mg/L (higher than 1 mg/L).
The relative degradation values calculated from the DOC analysis performed during the test period indicated that the average percentage biodegradation on the 28th day was 7%. - Results with reference substance:
- The average percentage degradation of procedure control was 100% after 14 days. It is concluded that the inoculum degradation activity meets the requirements of this test.
The degradation percentage of toxicity control on day 14 was 56%, which was higher than the toxicity inhibition level (>25%). It is concluded that the test substance has no inhibitory effects on inoculumn at the test concentration. - Validity criteria fulfilled:

To reduce the content of inorganic carbon in the blank controls the activated sludge was aerated with carbon dioxide free air for about 72 hours at 22 ± 2° C,
- Preparation of inoculum for exposure: At the day of exposure the suspension was washed one time with tap water. Therefore the aeration was stopped and the sludge was allowed to settle. After settling the supernatant was discarded and the remaining sludge suspension was filled up with tap water and the concentration of the sludge was adjusted to 6.0 g/L dry weight.

Usually twice a week the Total Inorganic Carbon (TIC) values of the adsorption solutions of the first trap were determined and used for the calculation of the produced carbon dioxide. After each sampling the second trap was moved forward and the new trap with fresh sodium hydroxide solution was placed into the second position. Each trap was analyzed separately.
The TIC-value of the freshly prepared sodium hydroxide solution was determined and considered by the calculation of biogenic produced carbon dioxide amount.

- Type of water:
- other: OECD 302B mineral medium
Additional information
The conclusion that 5-Methyl-3-vinyloxazolidin-2-on was not readily biodegradable in this carbon dioxide evolution test based on the quantitative determination of the formed carbon dioxide in the test substance assays by comparison with the calculated maximal theoretical carbon dioxide production. The required pass level for ready biodegradability within a ten days window was not reached. The degree of biodegradation after an exposure period of 28 days was < 10% CO2/ThCO2 in this test.
The conclusion that 5-Methyl-3-vinyloxazolidin-2-on was not inherent biodegradable is based on the results of a study according to OECD, in which the reduction of dissolved organic carbon was determined. The degree of biodegradation after an exposure period of 28 days was 7% DOC in this test.
