Water quality - Sampling - Part 15: Guidance on the preservation and handling of sludge and sediment samples (ISO 5667-15:2009)

ISO 5667-15:2009 provides guidance on procedures for the preservation, handling and storage of samples of sewage and waterworks sludge, suspended matter, saltwater sediments and freshwater sediments, until chemical, physical, radiochemical and/or biological examination can be undertaken in the laboratory.
The procedures in ISO 5667-15:2009 are only applicable to wet samples of sludge, sediment and suspended matter.

Wasserbeschaffenheit - Probenahme - Teil 15: Anleitung zur Konservierung und Handhabung von Schlamm- und Sedimentproben (ISO 5667-15:2009)

Dieser Teil von ISO 5667 gibt eine Anleitung zu Verfahren für die Konservierung, Handhabung und Lagerung von Proben von Klärschlämmen, Schlämmen aus Wasserwerken, Schwebstoffen, Salzwassersedimenten und Süßwassersedimenten bis zur chemischen, physikalischen, radiochemischen und/oder biologischen Untersuchung.
Die Verfahren in dieser Norm sind nur auf feuchte Proben von Schlamm, Sediment und Schwebstoffen geeignet.
Proben von Schlamm, Sediment und Schwebstoffen, die getrocknet oder gefriergetrocknet wurden, verhalten sich ähnlich wie getrocknete Böden. Für Hinweise zu einer lang- und kurzfristigen Lagerung von (gefrier )getrockneten Proben siehe ISO/DIS 18512. Für Hinweise zur Gefriertrocknung siehe ISO 16720.

Qualité de l'eau - Échantillonnage - Partie 15: Lignes directrices pour la conservation et le traitement des échantillons de boues et de sédiments (ISO 5667-15:2009)

L'ISO 5667-15:2009 fournit des lignes directrices relatives aux modes opératoires de conservation, de manipulation et de stockage des échantillons de boues provenant de stations d'épuration et de stations de traitement de l'eau potable, de matières en suspension, de sédiments en eau salée et en eau douce, jusqu'à ce que leur examen chimique, physique, radiochimique et/ou biologique puisse être entrepris en laboratoire.
Les modes opératoires fournis dans l'ISO 5667-15:2009 s'appliquent uniquement aux échantillons humides de boues, de sédiments et de matières en suspension.

Kakovost vode - Vzorčenje - 15. del: Navodilo za konzerviranje in ravnanje z blatom in vzorci sedimenta (ISO 5667-15:2009)

Ta del ISO 5667 zagotavlja vodilo za postopke za konzerviranje, ravnanje in shranjevanje vzorcev blata iz čistilnih naprav in naprav za prečiščevanje pitne vode, suspendiranih delcev, slanovodnih in sladkovodnih usedlin, dokler se v laboratoriju ne opravijo kemične, fizikalne, radiokemične in/ali biološke preiskave.

ISO 5667-15:2009(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 5667-15 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 6,
Sampling (general methods).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 5667-15:1999), which has been technically
revised.
