Overview
EN 902:2016 - published by CEN and approved May 2016 - is the European standard that defines the characteristics, quality requirements and test methods for hydrogen peroxide when used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. The standard applies specifically to hydrogen peroxide as a single chemical (not to mixtures) and includes guidance on use in water treatment as well as rules for safe handling and storage (see Annex B). EN 902:2016 supersedes EN 902:2009 and is produced by CEN/TC 164 “Water supply”.
Key Topics and Requirements
The standard covers the full technical lifecycle for hydrogen peroxide used in drinking-water applications, including:
- Scope and identification: chemical name, formulas, CAS and EINECS references.
- Physical and chemical properties: appearance, density, solubility, boiling/crystallization points and related parameters.
- Purity criteria: composition of commercial products, impurities and main by‑products, and required chemical parameters.
- Test methods and sampling: sampling rules and analytical methods for determination of hydrogen peroxide content and associated chemical parameters (including methods for trace elements - Annex C covers arsenic, antimony and selenium by hydride AAS).
- Labelling, transportation and storage: delivery forms, EU labelling requirements, transport regulations, container marking and long‑term stability considerations.
- Safety and emergency procedures: normative Annex B provides rules for safe handling, first aid, spillage response and fire procedures.
- Informative guidance: Annex A supplies background on origin, manufacturing, practical use in water treatment (function, dosing, application methods, secondary effects and removal of excess product).
Practical Applications and Users
EN 902:2016 is intended for stakeholders involved in the production, supply, testing and regulatory oversight of chemicals for drinking-water treatment:
- Water utilities and treatment plant operators specifying and using hydrogen peroxide in potable water systems.
- Chemical manufacturers and suppliers ensuring product compliance with European purity, labelling and transport rules.
- Analytical laboratories performing required sampling and test methods to verify product composition and impurities.
- Health, safety and environmental officers managing storage, handling and emergency response for hydrogen peroxide.
- Regulators and standards bodies assessing conformity and alignment with EU biocide legislation (e.g., REGULATION (EU) No 528/2012).
Related Standards
EN 902:2016 references and aligns with other normative documents used in testing and sampling, for example:
- EN ISO 3696 - Water for analytical laboratory use
- EN ISO 12846 - Determination of mercury by AAS
- ISO 3165 / ISO 6206 - Sampling of chemical products for industrial use

By outlining the essential requirements and corresponding test methods, this standard facilitates a clear understanding of the substance's qualities, effectiveness, and safety in water treatment applications. The thoroughness of the specifications supports regulators, manufacturers, and water treatment facilities in maintaining high standards of water quality and safety. Furthermore, the standard incorporates vital information on the safe handling and use of hydrogen peroxide, underscored in Annex B. This inclusion is relevant not only for compliance purposes but also for ensuring the safety of personnel involved in water treatment processes. The emphasis on safety procedures is a critical aspect of the standard, highlighting its commitment to public health and environmental considerations. Overall, EN 902:2016 serves as an essential guideline for the water treatment industry, addressing the specific characteristics and requirements of hydrogen peroxide, while reinforcing the importance of safety in its application. Its relevance continues to grow as the demand for safe drinking water remains a priority globally, making this standard vital for practitioners in the field.
EN 902:2016は、人間の消費のために水を処理する際に使用される過酸化水素に関する欧州規格であり、その範囲は非常に明確に定義されています。この標準は、過酸化水素そのものに言及しており、他の化学物質との混合物には適用されません。この点において、EN 902:2016は特定の化学物質に焦点を当てているため、専門的な理解が進み、より効率的な水処理の実現に寄与しています。 この標準の強みは、過酸化水素の特性と安全な取り扱いに関する詳細な情報を提供していることです。具体的には、過酸化水素の要件や試験方法が明確に記載されており、使用に際しての基準が一貫して定義されています。これにより、業界における信頼性や安全性が高まり、規制に準拠した運用が可能となるのです。また、付録Bでは安全な取り扱いと使用に関するルールが確立されており、教育や実務において極めて重要です。 さらに、EN 902:2016は水処理における過酸化水素の使用に関する包括的なガイドラインを提示しており、技術者や業界関係者にとって実用的かつ必要不可欠なリソースと言えます。その結果、消費者に対する安全な水供給を保証するための基盤が形成されており、環境保護にも貢献する重要な標準となっています。このように、EN 902:2016は過酸化水素に特化した規格として由緒ある価値を持ち、人間の健康を守るための重要な役割を果たしています。
