SCHEDULE 1 — Additional requirements for biogas and composting plants

PART 1

Premises

1

  • (1) There must be —
  • (a) a reception area in which untreated animal by-products (including catering waste) are received,
  • (b) an area in which vehicles and containers are cleansed and disinfected with adequate facilities for doing this, and
  • (c) a clean area in which treated compost or digestion residue are stored.
  • (2) The clean area must be, adequately separated from the reception area and the area in which vehicles and containers are cleansed and disinfected so as to prevent contamination of the treated material. Floors must be laid so that liquid cannot seep into the clean area from the other areas.
  • (3) The reception area must be easy to clean and disinfect and must have an enclosed and lockable place or container to receive and store the untreated animal by-products.

2

The animal by-products must be unloaded in the reception area and either —

  • (a) treated immediately, or
  • (b) stored in the reception area and treated without undue delay.

3

The plant must be operated in such a way that —

  • (a) treated material is not contaminated by untreated or partially treated material or liquids arising from it; and
  • (b) partially treated material is not contaminted with material which has not been treated to the same extent or liquids arising from it.

4

The operator shall identify, control and monitor suitable critical points in the operation of the plant to demonstrate that —

  • (a) these Regulations and the Community Regulation are complied with;
  • (b) treated material is not contaminated by untreated or partially treated material or liquids arising from it; and
  • (c) partially treated material is not contaminated with material which has not been treated to the same extent or liquids arising from it.

SCHEDULE 2 — Testing Methods

PART I — METHOD FOR THE ISOLATION OF CLOSTRIDIUM PERFRINGENS

Time of testing

1

Tests must be begun on receipt of the sample or on the first working day which allows this method to be completed. If the test is not begun on the day of receipt the sample must be stored in a refrigerator at between 2°C and 8°C until required. If the sample has been refrigerated it must be removed from the refrigerator and stored at room temperature for at least one hour before the test is started.

Samples

2

Tests must be carried out using two 10 gram portions of each sample submitted for testing. Each 10 gram sample must be placed aseptically in a sterile container containing 90 ml Clostridium perfringens diluent consisting of 0.1% peptone and 0.8% sodium chloride at a pH of 7 and mixed thoroughly until the sample is evenly suspended.

Inoculations

3

For each portion of the sample 1 ml of solution must be transferred to a sterile 90 mm petri dish (in duplicate), to which 15 ml of Shahidi - Ferguson agar (SF agar)[^f00025] at a temperature of 47°C±1°C must be added and immediately gently mixed by swirling the dish with 5 clockwise and 5 anticlockwise circular movements.

4

Once the agar has set, each agar plate must be overlaid with a further 10 ml SF agar at a temperature of 47°C±1°C. Once the overlay has set and with the plate lids uppermost the plates must be incubated anaerobically at 37°C±1°C for 20 hours±2 hours.

Samples with colonies of Clostridium perfringens

5

After incubation each set of duplicate plates must be examined for colonies characteristic of Clostridium perfringens (black). The sample provisionally fails if any colonies characteristic of Clostridium perfringens are present, in which case the following procedure must be followed to establish whether or not the colonies are Clostridium perfringens.

6

In the case of each plate, 10 characteristic colonies of Clostridium perfringens must be subcultured on to a further SF agar plate. If there are less than 10 colonies on the plate, all characteristic colonies must be subcultured on to the further plate. The plates must be incubated anaerobically at 37°C±1°C for 20 hours±2 hours.

7

If the surface area of the plates is overgrown and it is not possible to select well isolated characteristic colonies, 10 suspect colonies must be subcultured on to duplicate SF agar plates and incubated anaerobically at 37°C±1°C for 20 hours±2 hours.

8

One characteristic colony from each plate must be subcultured on to SF agar and incubated anaerobically at 37°C±1°C for 20 hours±2 hours.

Subcultured colonies

9

After incubation each plate must be examined for colonies characteristic of Clostridium perfringens. All colonies characteristic of Clostridium perfringens must be —

  • (a) stab inoculated into motility nitrate medium[^f00026]; and
  • (b) inoculated into either lactose gelatin medium[^f00027] or charcoal gelatin discs[^f00028];

and incubated anaerobically at 37°C±1°C for 20 hours±2 hours.

Examination of subcultures

Motility

10

The motility nitrate medium must be examined for the type of growth along the stab line. If there is evidence of diffuse growth out into the medium away from the stab line, the bacteria must be considered to be motile.

Reduction of nitrate to nitrite

11

After examination of the motility nitrate medium, 0.2 ml to 0.5 ml of nitrite detection reagent must be added to it. The formation of a red colour confirms that the bacteria have reduced nitrate to nitrite. Cultures that show a faint reaction (i.e. a pink colour) must be discounted. If no red colour is formed within 15 minutes, a small amount of zinc dust must be added and the plate allowed to stand for 15 minutes. If a red colour is formed after the addition of zinc dust no reduction of nitrate to nitrite has taken place.

Production of gas and acid from lactose and liquefaction of gelatin

12

The lactose gelatin medium must be examined for the presence of small gas bubbles in the medium.

Day 5

B. ELECTRICAL CONDUCTANCE METHOD

1

Tests must be begun on receipt of the sample or on the first working day which allows the following method to be completed. If the test is not begun on the day of receipt the sample must be stored in a refrigerator until required. If the sample has been refrigerated it must be stored at room temperature for at least four hours before the test is started.

Day 1

2

Tests must be carried out in duplicate using two 25 gram portions of each sample submitted for testing. Each 25 gram sample must be placed aseptically in a sterile container containing 225 ml Buffered Peptone Water/Lysine/Glucose (BPW/L/G)[^f00035] and incubated at 37°C for 18 hours.

Day 2

3

The incubated BPW/L/G must be added to Selenite Cystine Trimethylamine-N-Oxide Dulcitol (SC/T/D)[^f00036] and Lysine Decarboxylase Glucose (LD/G)[^f00037] media in electrical conductance cells or wells. For cells or wells containing more than 5 ml medium 0.2 ml of the BPW/L/G must be added and for cells or wells containing 5 ml or less medium 0.1 ml of the BPW/L/G must be added. Cells or wells must be connected to appropriate electrical conductance measuring equipment set to monitor and record changes in electrical conductance at 6 minute intervals over a 24 hour period. The temperature of cells and wells must be kept at 37°C.

Day 3

Day 4

5

The plates must be examined and a minimum of 3 colonies from each plate showing suspicion of Salmonella growth must be subcultured —

  • (a) on to a blood agar plate;
  • (b) on to a MacConkey agar plate; and
  • (c) into biochemical media suitable for the identification of Salmonella.

3

Where former foodstuffs are mixed with Category 1 or Category 2 material any person in possession or control of the material must ensure that it is disposed of in accordance with Article 1(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 813/2003; and any person who fails to do so will be guilty of an offence.
