Why choose BPC Blue?
If you need to determine the biodegradability of a material, BPC Blue is the ideal instrument for the job. With its 18 (or 9) channels, you can test multiple samples at once, saving time and cost. Setting up a test is quick and easy, taking only 2-3 hours. After that, the instrument automatically performs sampling, analysis, recording and report generation for a seamless testing experience, including:

Evaluate both aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability BPC Blue offers the possibility to both evaluate the aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability of a material. For anaerobic analysis, BPC® Blue Anaerobic delivers precise and efficient data analysis of biogas release in various aqueous media, controlled slurry digestion systems, and high-solids anaerobic digestion settings. Meanwhile, for aerobic analysis, BPC® Blue Aerobic works in conjunction with BPC’s patented in-situ carbon dioxide absorption kit, which transforms it into a closed respirometer system that measures oxygen demand. |
Configurations of BPC BlueBPC Blue offers three different configurations to suit your testing needs: Aerobic for aerobic tests, Anaerobic for anaerobic tests, and Premium for both aerobic and anaerobic tests. Additionally, each configuration of BPC Blue is available in two versions: the standard 18-channel version and the more compact 9-channel Light version. |

User-Friendly operationIn comparison to conventional techniques or other available alternatives, BPC Blue greatly reduces the need for manual labour and minimises labour the likelihood of human errors. Once experiment preparation and setup are completed, BPC Blue seamlessly takes charge of the entire running process, ensuring an automated test until completion. This allows for real-time review and calculation of experimental data, which can be conveniently accessed anytime through the software Aurora™ user interface and a downloaded report. |

AURORA™ Software, pre-installed on BPC Blue |
|||
Elevate process analysis and monitoring with Aurora™ softwareAurora™ is BPC Instruments’ cutting-edge software solution for its lab instruments, bringing your experiments to life. With its streamlined design, setting up experient, monitoring progress, and downloading results becomes effortless. Aurora™ comes pre-installed on BPC Blue, eliminating the need for software licences or installation on an external computer. |
 |

 |
Realtime data standardisationThrough real-time temperature and pressure compensation, Aurora™ normalises the measured gas volume and flow under standard conditions (i.e., 0 °C, 1 atm and zero moisture) at each measurement point. This allows seamless switching between volume and mass units during an experiment and facilitates easy data comparison between different laboratories worldwide. |
||
Observe biodegradation in real-timeWith BPC Blue’s integrated Aurora™ software, you can witness the calculation of biodegradability in real-time. This includes value, standard deviation, deduction of negative control, and conversion into percent biodegradability. The results are presented in visually appealing graphs, enhancing the overall user experience. |
|
||
Access results anywhere, anytime, on any deviceBPC Blue is designed for convenient access from any remote location using a web browser on your preferred device. Monitor your experiment from the comfort of your office, or home using your computer, tablet or smartphone. Expand the analytical capacity of BPC Blue effortlessly by connecting multiple instruments together with an Ethernet switch. With this feature, each BPC Blue can operate as a standalone device or be connected in parallel, catering to your specific needs. |

Revolutionising incubation - cooling and heating with BPC Air |
|||
|
BPC Blue can be coupled with our new BPC Air incubation unit instead of a traditional thermostatic water bath. The BPC Air is an air-based incubator specifically designed to seamlessly integrate with our respirometer systems. By combining BPC Blue with BPC Air, you can run tests at a range of temperatures with both heating and cooling (10 – 60 oC) for long periods of time, without worrying about refilling your incubation medium. Available for both aerobic and anaerobic configurations, BPC Air also offers lower power consumption and is a highly mobile instrument that can fit into most available laboratory areas. |
