scope:
This document specifies a method for the differentiated determination of the organic carbon content (TOC400) which is released at temperatures up to 400 °C, the residual oxidizable carbon (ROC) (including e.g. lignite (brown coal), hard coal, charcoal, black carbon, soot) and the inorganic carbon (TIC900) which is released at temperatures up to 900 °C.
The basis is the dry combustion or decomposition of carbon to CO2 in the presence of oxygen or non-oxygen conditions using temperatures ranging from 150 °C to 900 °C in dry solid samples of sediment, soil, soil with anthropogenic admixtures and solid waste (see Table 1) with carbon contents of more than 1 g per kg (0,1 % C) (per carbon type in the test portion).
NOTE TIC' includes the TIC measured after acid addition e.g. by ISO 10694 or EN 15936. TOC400 is the carbon black free portion of TOC measurement e.g. by ISO 10694 or EN 15936.
