Additional information

The inhibitory effect of Acid Violet 090 on the oxygen consumption of activated sludge microorganisms of a municipal sewage treatment plant was investigated under aerobic static conditions. The nominal concentrations of test item were 125, 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 mg/l, respectively. No chemical analysis of test concentrations was conducted; it was assumed that the test compound was stable in water over 3 h. At 2000, 1000 and 500 mg/l, respectively, respiration inhibitions of 32, 26 and 20 % were observed. At 250 and 125 mg/l the test substance showed no significant toxic effects to the activated sludge. The respiration rates were in the same range as determined for the two blank controls (Clariant SE, 2002).
