Sludge, treated biowaste and soil - Determination of linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection (FLD) or mass selective detection (MS)
This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) in sludge, treated biowaste and soil using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorescence detector (FLD) or a mass selective detector (MS).
This Technical Specification specifies the determination of the sum of LAS. Under the conditions specified in this Technical Specification, typically a limit of detection of 20 mg/kg (expressed as dry matter) for sludge and of 0,2 mg/kg to 0,5 mg/kg for soil and treated biowaste may be achieved.
Lower limits of detection may be achieved by concentrating the extract by solvent evaporation.
NOTE The single LAS homologues C10 to C14 can be determined by this Technical Specification.

Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 16189:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 400 “Project
Committee - Horizontal standards in the fields of sludge, biowaste and soil”, the secretariat of which is held by
DIN.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
The preparation of this document by CEN is based on a mandate by the European Commission
(Mandate M/330), which assigned the development of standards on sampling and analytical methods for
hygienic and biological parameters as well as inorganic and organic determinants, aiming to make these
standards applicable to sludge, treated biowaste and soil as far as this is technically feasible.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: 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, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
The anionic surfactant LAS (Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate) is found in the environment due to the use of LAS
in detergents. For more than 30 years LAS has been the largest single surfactant used in detergents, and the
use continues on a high level.
Although LAS is readily biodegradable during wastewater treatment, considerable amounts may still be found
in sludge of municipal origin. By the use of sludge for soil improvement LAS may end up in the agricultural
soil, where a rapid biodegradation takes place.
The method describes the determination of LAS in sludge, soil, treated biowaste and neighbouring fields. LAS
is the sodium salt of alkylbenzene sulfonic acids, and it consists of a mixture of the homologues C -LAS,
C -LAS, C -LAS, C -LAS and C -LAS. LAS is determined as the sum of the homologues.

1 Scope
This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) in
sludge, treated biowaste and soil using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorescence
detector (FLD) or a mass selective detector (MS).
This Technical Specification specifies the determination of the sum of LAS. Under the conditions specified in
this Technical Specification, typically a limit of detection of 20 mg/kg (expressed as dry matter) for sludge and
of 0,2 mg/kg to 0,5 mg/kg for soil and treated biowaste may be achieved.
