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

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.

Charakterisierung von Abfällen - Statische Prüfung zur Bestimmung des Säurebildungspotenzials und des Neutralisationspotenzials von sulfidhaltigen Abfällen

Diese Europäische Norm legt Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Potenzials von sulfidhaltigen Materialien zur
Säurebildung fest. Festgelegt werden Verfahren zur Bestimmung sowohl des Säurebildungspotenzials
(en: acid potential, AP) als auch des Neutralisationspotenzials (en: neutralisation potential, NP) des Materials.
Aus diesen Ergebnissen werden das Nettoneutralisationspotenzial (en: net neutralisation potential, NNP) und
der Pufferungsquotient (en: neutralisation potential ratio, NPR) berechnet.
Diese Europäische Norm ist auf sämtliche sulfidhaltigen Abfälle aus der mineralgewinnenden Industrie
anwendbar, mit Ausnahme von Abfällen, deren pH-Wert beim ersten Schritt des in 8.2.3 beschriebenen
Verfahrens kleiner als 2 ist.

Caractérisation des déchets - Essai statique pour la détermination du potentiel de génération d'acide et du potentiel de neutralisation des déchets sulfurés

La présente Norme européenne spécifie des méthodes permettant de déterminer le potentiel des matériaux sulfurés à former des eaux de drainage acides. Les méthodes spécifiées permettent de déterminer à la fois le potentiel de génération d’acide (AP) et le potentiel de neutralisation (NP) du matériau. A partir de ces résultats, le potentiel de neutralisation net (NNP) et le rapport de potentiel de neutralisation (NPR) sont calculés.
La présente Norme européenne est applicable à tous les déchets sulfurés de l’industrie extractive, à l’exclusion des déchets qui auront un pH inférieur à 2 lors de l’étape initiale du mode opératoire décrit en 8.2.3.

Karakterizacija odpadkov - Statični preskus za določevanje kislinske in nevtralizacijske kapacitete odpadkov, ki vsebujejo sulfid

Ta evropski standard določa metode za določevanje kapacitete materialov, ki vsebujejo sulfid, za tvorbo kisle drenaže. Opredeljene so metode za določevanje kislinske (AP) in nevtralizacijske kapacitete (NP) materiala. Iz teh rezultatov se računa neto nevtralizacijska kapaciteta (NNP) in razmerje nevtralizacijske kapacitete (NPR). Ta evropski standard se uporablja za vse odpadke ekstraktivne industrije, ki vsebujejo sulfid, razen odpadkov, katerih pH v prvi fazi postopka, opisanega v 8.2.3, znaša < 2.

Charakterisierung von Abfällen - Statische Prüfung zur Bestimmung des Säurebildungspotenzials und des Neutralisationspotenzials von sulfidhaltigen Abfällen This European Standard was approved by CEN on 17 September 2011.
CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

To carry out a more precise assessment of the acid generation potential and buffering capacity mineralogical information is required. A number of special cases can be identified: e.g. presence of sulfate (e.g. gypsum), non-acid producing sulfides or carbonates with no buffering capacity. Acid neutralisation behaviour as obtained by other methods can provide additional information in circumstances of uncertainty.
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. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
