Characterization of waste - Determination of loss on ignition in waste, sludge and sediments

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the loss on ignition.
This procedure is applicable to all kinds of waste, sludge and sediments.
The loss on ignition is often used as an estimate for the content of non-volatile organic matter in waste, sludge and sediments. It should be noted that any content of elementary carbon and volatilisation of organic materials or chemical reactions by inorganic compounds, is included in the loss on ignition.

Caractérisation des déchets - Détermination de la perte au feu des déchets, des boues et des sédiments

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de détermination de la perte au feu.
Ce mode opératoire est applicable à tous les types de déchets, boues et sédiments.
La perte au feu est souvent utilisée afin d’évaluer la teneur des déchets, des boues et des sédiments en matière organique non volatile. Il convient de noter que la teneur en carbone élémentaire et la volatilisation de matériaux organiques ou des réactions chimiques au sein de composés inorganiques sont comprises, le cas échéant, dans la perte au feu.
