Characterization of waste - Analysis of eluates; German version EN 16192:2011

Title (German)

Charakterisierung von Abfällen - Analyse von Eluaten; Deutsche Fassung EN 16192:2011

Overview

This European Standard deals with the determination of chemical constituents, electrical conductivity, pH and total dissolved solids (TDS) in eluates which have been obtained by leaching of waste. In principle, it may be used for the analysis of every kind of eluate as long as the performance characteristics of the applied analytical method fulfil the specific requirements. The standard is intended to be used for the characterization of waste as defined in the Council Directive 75/442/EEC on waste, as amended by Council Directive 91/156/EEC of 18th March 1991, and national regulations, whose final destination for disposal is landfill. In the Council Decision of 19 December 2002 establishing criteria and procedures for the acceptance of waste at landfills pursuant to Article 16 of and Annex II to Directive 1999/31/EC, the test methods are described for determining the acceptability of waste at landfills.
