Characterizataion of sludges - Good practice for sludge utilisation in land reclamation

This Technical Report gives indication on sludge utilisation within reclamation programmes of disturbed land.
This Technical Report is applicable to sludges described in the scope of CEN/TC 308; for example:
¾ storm water handling;
¾ urban wastewater collecting systems;
¾ urban wastewater treatment plants;
¾ treating industrial wastewater similar to urban wastewater (as defined in Directive 91/271/EEC [18]);
¾ water supply treatment plants;
¾ water distribution systems;
¾ sludge derived materials;
¾ but excluding hazardous sludges from industry.
NOTE   Because of the wide range of reclamation sites where sludge use as a soil ameliorate or source of plant nutrients is beneficial, and the different potential final uses of these sites, recommendations for application should be considered on a site-by-site basis. It is far beyond the scope of these guidelines to describe all the possible situations and the individual ways in which sludge could be used. The aim is to address, in a general qualitative way, the key issues which will determine in each particular case whether, how much and which type of sludge can be used.
Planning considerations (clause 5) are emphasised due to the fact that a general scheme can be adopted as a

Caractérisation des boues - Bonnes pratiques pour la valorisation des boues pour reconstitution de sol

Le présent Rapport Technique fournit des indications relatives à la valorisation des boues dans le cadre de programmes de reconstitution de sols perturbés.
Il est applicable aux boues décrites dans le domaine d'application du CEN/TC 308, par exemple :
¾ la collecte des eaux pluviales ;
¾ les systèmes de collecte des eaux usées urbaines ;
¾ les stations d'épuration des eaux usées urbaines ;
¾ les stations d'épuration des eaux industrielles assimilées aux eaux usées urbaines (telles que définies par la Directive 91/271/CEE) [18] ;
¾ les usines de production d'eau potable ;
¾ les systèmes de distribution d'eau potable ;
¾ les produits dérivés des boues ;
¾ à l'exception des boues industrielles dangereuses.
NOTE   Etant donné le large éventail des sites à remettre en valeur sur lesquels l'utilisation de la boue en tant que substance d'amélioration du sol ou source nutritive pour les végétaux est bénéfique, et les différentes utilisations finales possibles de ces sites, il convient de considérer au cas par cas les recommandations d'application. Les présentes recommandations n'ont pas pour objet de décrire toutes les situations possibles et les différentes manières d'utiliser les boues. Elles ont pour but d'aborder, dans les grandes lignes et d'un point de vue qualitatif, les problèmes clés qui détermineront dans chaque cas particulier quelle quantité et quel type de boue peut être utilisé.
L'accent a été mis sur les dispositions relatives à la planification (article 5) car un schéma général peut être adopté en tant que procédure commune dans presque toutes les situations.

Foreword
This document CEN/TR 13983:2003 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 308 “Characterisation of
sludges”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
The status of this document as Technical Report has been chosen because the most of its content is not
completely in line with the practice and regulation in each member state. This document gives recommendations
for a good practice concerning sludges for utilisation in land reclamation.
