Characterization of waste - Static test for determination of acid potential and neutralisation potential of sulfidic waste

active, Most Current
Organization: CEN
Publication Date: 1 October 2011
Status: active
Page Count: 30
ICS Code (Solid wastes): 13.030.10
scope:

This European standard specifies methods to determine the potential of sulfide bearing materials for the formation of acidic drainage. Specified are methods for determining both the acid potential (AP) and the neutralisation potential (NP) of the material. From these results the net neutralisation potential (NNP) and the neutralisation potential ratio (NPR) are calculated.

This European standard is applicable to all sulfide bearing wastes from the extractive industries excluding wastes which will have pH < 2 in the initial step of the procedure described in 8.2.3.
