Waste - Characterization of granular solids with potential for use as construction material - Compliance leaching test - Up-flow percolation test

This document specifies an up-flow percolation procedure applicable to determine the release of hazardous inorganic and non-volatile organic substances from granular solids derived from waste with potential for beneficial use as construction product. The principle is identical with CEN TS 16637-3 “Construction products — Assessment of release of dangerous substances — Part 3: Horizontal up-flow percolation test”. Waste materials without potential for beneficial use are excluded from the scope. The test is applicable to waste material of which the general long-term leaching behavior is known based on previous investigations.

Abfall - Charakterisierung von granularen Feststoffen mit Verwertungspotential als Ersatzbaustoff - Übereinstimmungsuntersuchung des Elutionsverhaltens - Perkolationsprüfung im Aufwärtsstrom

(1) Dieses Dokument legt eine Perkolationsprüfung (PP) im Aufwärtsstrom fest, die geeignet ist, das Auslaugverhalten von anorganischen und nichtflüchtigen organischen Stoffen aus körnigen Feststoffen mit Verwertungspotential als Ersatzbaustoff zu bestimmen. Die Prüfung eignet sich nicht für Stoffe, die unter Umgebungsbedingungen flüchtig sind. Die körnigen Feststoffe werden unter festgelegten Bedingungen und in Abhängigkeit vom Flüssigkeits-/Feststoffverhältnis einer Perkolation mit Wasser ausgesetzt. Bei dem Verfahren handelt es sich um einen Auslaugungstest bei einmaligem Durchfluss einer Säule.
ANMERKUNG 1   Flüchtige organische Stoffe umfassen auch niedermolekulare Stoffe in Mischungen wie z. B. Mineralöl.
(2) Diese Perkolationsprüfung im Aufwärtsstrom wird unter festgelegten Prüfbedingungen für körnige Feststoffe mit Verwertungspotential als Ersatzbaustoff durchgeführt und liefert nicht zwingend Ergebnisse, die die spezifischen Bedingungen der bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung nachbilden. Bei diesem Prüf-verfahren werden Eluate erzeugt, die anschließend durch physikalische, chemische und ökotoxikologische Verfahren in Übereinstimmung mit gängigen Standardverfahren charakterisiert werden können. Die Ergebnisse der Eluatanalyse werden in Abhängigkeit vom Flüssigkeits-/Feststoffverhältnis dargestellt. Die Prüfergebnisse ermöglichen es, verschiedene Auslaugverhalten zu unterscheiden.
ANMERKUNG 2   Es ist nicht immer möglich, die Prüfbedingungen gleichzeitig für anorganische und organische Stoffe anzupassen. Außerdem können sich die Prüfbedingungen für unterschiedliche Gruppen von organischen Stoffen unterscheiden. Die Prüfbedingungen für organische Stoffe sind im Allgemeinen strenger als die für anorganische Stoffe. Die Prüfbedingungen sind im Allgemeinen so beschrieben, dass sie für die Prüfung organischer Stoffe gelten und in Abhängigkeit davon, wie die Prüfungen angelegt sind, auch auf anorganische Stoffe anwendbar sind.
ANMERKUNG 3   Für Ökotoxizitätsprüfungen werden Eluate benötigt, die die Freisetzung sowohl von anorganischen als auch von organischen Stoffen abbilden. In diesem Dokument sind ökotoxikologische Prüfungen so zu verstehen, dass sie genotoxikologische Prüfungen mit einschließen.
ANMERKUNG 4   Körnige Abfallmaterialien mit einem niedrigen Durchlässigkeitsbeiwert für Grundwasser, die einen nachteiligen Druckaufbau verursachen können, sollen dieser Prüfung nicht unterzogen werden.
ANMERKUNG 5   Dieses Verfahren ist im Allgemeinen nicht geeignet für Feststoffe, die leicht biologisch abbaubar sind, für Feststoffe, die mit dem Elutionsmittel so reagieren, dass beispielsweise eine übermäßige Gasemission oder Wärmeabgabe erfolgt, für undurchlässige, hydraulisch gebundene Feststoffe oder für Feststoffe, die in Kontakt mit Wasser quellen.
Der Anwendungsbereich erstreckt sich nicht auf körnige Abfallmaterialien ohne Verwertungspotential.
ANMERKUNG 6   Körnige Abfallmaterialien ohne Verwertungspotential können Materialien sein, bei denen während eines potentiellen Wiederverwendungsszenarios eine Gaserzeugung oder ein biologischer Abbau auftritt.
Diese Prüfung ist auf jene Arten von körnigem Abfallmaterial anwendbar, deren grundsätzliches langfristiges Auslaugverhalten aus früheren Untersuchungen bekannt ist.
(3) In diesem Dokument werden die gleichen Prüfbedingungen wie für FprEN 16637-3 (CEN/TC 351/WG 1) angewandt, um eine vollständige Vergleichbarkeit der Prüfung von Bauprodukten und aus Abfällen gewonnenen Bauprodukten zu ermöglichen und Doppelprüfungen zu vermeiden. Die Prüfergebnisse nach FprEN 16637-3 sind im Zusammenhang mit der Prüfung körniger Feststoffe mit Verwertungspotential als Ersatzbaustoff ebenfalls zulässig.
ANMERKUNG 7   Wenn eine Auslaugprüfung nach FprEN 16637-3 durchgeführt wurde, braucht eine zusätzliche Prüfung nach prEN 17516 nicht durchgeführt zu werden.

Déchets - Caractérisation des soudes granulées avec un potential d’ utilisation comme matériau de construction - Essai de comportement à la lixiviation - Essai de percolation d’un flux ascendant

Le présent document spécifie un essai de percolation (EP) à écoulement ascendant qui est applicable pour déterminer le comportement à la lixiviation des substances organiques non volatiles et inorganiques issues de déchets solides granulaires présentant un intérêt potentiel en tant que produits de construction. L’essai n’est pas adapté aux substances qui sont volatiles dans des conditions ambiantes. Le déchet solide granulaire est soumis à une percolation à l’eau en fonction du rapport liquide/solide, dans des conditions de percolation spécifiées. La méthode consiste en un essai de lixiviation en colonne avec passage unique.
NOTE 1   Les substances organiques volatiles incluent les substances de faible masse moléculaire contenues dans des mélanges tels que les huiles minérales.
NOTE 2   Il n’est pas toujours possible d’ajuster les conditions d’essai à la fois pour les substances organiques et inorganiques, et les conditions d’essai peuvent également varier entre différents groupes de substances organiques. Les conditions d’essai pour les substances organiques sont généralement plus strictes que celles applicables aux substances inorganiques. Les conditions d’essai sont décrites de sorte à être adaptées à l’essai de substances organiques, ainsi qu’à celui de substances inorganiques en fonction de la configuration.
Les déchets solides granulaires ne présentant pas d’intérêt potentiel en tant que produits de construction sont exclus du domaine d’application.
NOTE 3   Les déchets solides granulaires ne présentant pas d’intérêt potentiel en tant que produits de construction peuvent être des matériaux générant une production de gaz ou une biodégradation au cours d’un scénario de réutilisation potentiel.
NOTE 4   Ce mode opératoire n’est généralement applicable ni aux solides qui sont facilement biodégradables, ni aux solides qui réagissent avec le lixiviant, ce qui entraîne, par exemple, une émission de gaz excessive ou un dégagement de chaleur excessif, ni aux liants hydrauliques non perméables, ni aux solides qui gonflent au contact de l’eau.
Cet essai est applicable aux types de déchets solides granulaires dont le comportement à la lixiviation à long terme est généralement connu grâce à de précédentes études.
Cet essai de percolation à écoulement ascendant est réalisé dans des conditions d’essai spécifiées, qui correspondent aux conditions d’essai indiquées dans la CEN/TS 16637 3 (pour les produits de construction granulaires). Cet essai ne donne pas nécessairement des résultats conformes aux conditions d’utilisation spécifiques prévues. Cette méthode d’essai produit des éluats qui peuvent ensuite être caractérisés par des méthodes physiques, chimiques et écotoxicologiques selon des méthodes normalisées existantes. Les résultats de l’analyse des éluats sont présentés en fonction du rapport liquide/solide.
NOTE 5   Pour la réalisation des essais d’écotoxicité, des éluats avec à la fois des substances inorganiques et organiques sont nécessaires. Dans le présent document, les essais écotoxicologiques englobent aussi les essais génotoxicologiques.

European foreword

This document (prEN 17516:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 444

“Environmental characterization of solid matrices”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.

This document is currently submitted to the second CEN Enquiry.

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the

European Free Trade Association.

This document specifies an up-flow percolation test to determine the leaching behaviour of granular solid

waste with potential for beneficial use as construction product under standardized percolation

conditions. The test is equal to the Horizontal up-flow percolation test for construction products

(FprEN 16637-3), which in turn was elaborated based on the up-flow percolation test for

characterization of waste (CEN/TS 14405:2004). The reason for implementing this Technical

Specification is to provide a method which is in line with the investigation of the leaching behaviour of

granular waste as well as granular construction products, particularly to avoid double testing of waste-

derived aggregates that may have potential as construction products.

NOTE Granular solid waste materials are subjected to the Waste Frame Directive (2008/98/EC) where

the release of dangerous substances of granular waste is measured according to EN 14405, while

construction products derived from the same waste are subjected to the Construction Products

Regulation (305/2011) where the release of dangerous substances is measured according to

FprEN 16637-3.

Background information on characterization of leaching behaviour of construction products can be found

in Technical Reports provided by CEN/TC 351 (i.e. CEN/TR 16098).

Introduction

The implementation of a Circular Economy has a high priority on the agenda of the European

Commission. To fulfil the needs of a Circular Economy granular solid waste should be used as

construction product as much as possible, thus diminishing the amount of landfilling to a minimum and

save natural resources.

The release of dangerous substances upon contact with water results in a potential risk to the

environment during the intended utilization of waste materials as construction products. The intent of

this European Standard together with EN 14405 or EN 12457-series is to identify the leaching behaviour

of granular solid waste with potential for beneficial use as construction product and thereby allow

assessments of the release of regulated dangerous substances to soil, surface water and groundwater

under intended use conditions in relation to CE marking of construction products derived from waste.

This document describes an up-flow percolation test for granular solid waste with potential for beneficial

use as a construction product. It has been elaborated to avoid double testing, i.e. to assess the compliance

with both waste and construction products regulations in one run. This test addresses granular solid

waste with existing knowledge on long-term leaching behaviour in waste management scenarios

obtained i.e. using basic characterization test EN 14405. The specified methods under Clauses 5 to 12

(Principle, Reagents, Equipment, Sample preparation, Test procedure, Evaluation of measurement

results, Documentation and Test Report as well as Test Performance) are identical to the corresponding

clauses of FprEN 16637-3 (Horizontal up-flow percolation test) with the exception that the term

“construction product“ has been changed to terms relevant for this standard such as “granular solid waste

with potential to be reused as construction product” or similar.

In the different European countries, tests have been developed to characterize and assess dangerous

substances which can be leached from solid matrices (e.g. construction products, contaminated soils,

solid waste materials). The intent of these tests is to identify the leaching behaviour of these materials.

The complexity of the leaching process makes simplifications necessary. All relevant aspects of leaching

behaviour cannot be addressed in one single standard. The test hierarchy for waste is described in the

1 2

Landfill Directive and the Decision on Annex II of this Directive for disposal of waste, while guidance of

appropriate leaching test for determining leaching of dangerous substances from construction products

is specified in CEN/TS 16637-1.

The test procedure described in this European Standard should be regarded as a compliance test to be

used to verify compliance to regulatory limit values. Column percolation tests according to EN 14405

shall be applied for basic characterization of granular solid waste.

NOTE 1 Basic characterization constitutes a full characterization of the waste by gathering all the necessary

information for a safe management of the waste in the short and long term. Basic characterization may provide

general information on the waste (i.e. type and origin, composition, consistency, leachability, etc.), information for

understanding the behaviour of waste in the considered management scenario, comparison of waste properties

against limit values, and detection of key variables (critical parameters as liquid/solid (L/S) ratios, leachant

composition, factors controlling leachability such as pH, redox potential, complexing capacity and physical

parameters) for compliance testing and options for simplification of compliance testing.

1 Scope

(1) This document specifies an up-flow percolation test (PT) which is applicable to determine the

leaching behaviour of inorganic and non-volatile organic substances from granular solids with potential

for use as construction material. The test is not suitable for substances that are volatile under ambient

conditions. The granular solids are subjected to percolation with water as a function of liquid to solid

ratio under specified percolation conditions. The method is a once-through column leaching test.

NOTE 1 Volatile organic substances include the low molecular weight substances in mixtures such as mineral oil.

(2) This up-flow percolation test is performed under specified test conditions for granular solids with

potential for use as construction material and does not necessarily produce results that mimic specific

intended use conditions. This test method produces eluates, which can subsequently be characterized by

physical, chemical and ecotoxicological methods according to existing standard methods. The results of

eluate analysis are presented as a function of the liquid/solid ratio. The test results enable the distinction

between different leaching behaviour.

NOTE 2 It is not always possible to adjust test conditions simultaneously for inorganic and organic substances.

Test conditions can also vary between different groups of organic substances. Test conditions for organic

substances are generally more stringent than those for inorganic substances. The test conditions are generally

described in a way that they fit testing organic substances and are also applicable to inorganic substances depending

on the set-up.

NOTE 3 For ecotoxicity testing, eluates representing the release of both inorganic and organic substances are

needed. In this document, ecotoxicological testing is meant to include also genotoxicological testing.

NOTE 4 Granular solid waste materials with a low hydraulic conductivity that can cause detrimental pressure

build-up are not supposed to be subjected to this test.

NOTE 5 This procedure is generally not applicable to solids that are easily biologically degradable and solids

reacting with the leachant, leading to, for example, excessive gas emission or excessive heat release, impermeable

hydraulically bound solids or solids that swell in contact with water.

Granular solid waste materials without potential for beneficial use are excluded from the scope.

NOTE 6 Granular solid waste materials without potential for beneficial use can be materials with gas generation

or biodegradation during a potential reuse scenario.

This test is applicable to types of granular solid waste of which the general long-term leaching behaviour

is known based on previous investigations.

(3) In this document the same test conditions as for FprEN 16637-3 (CEN/TC 351/WG 1) are applied in

order to allow full comparability of testing construction products and waste derived construction

products to avoid double testing. The FprEN 16637-3 test results are eligible in the context of testing

granular solids with potential for use as construction material as well.

NOTE 7 If a leaching test according to FprEN 16637-3 has been performed, additional prEN 17516 testing does

not need to be carried out.

local equilibrium

situation where chemical equilibrium exists between a substance in solution and the same substance in

the solid phase at any point in the column

Note 1 to entry: Even when local equilibrium exists at all points along the column the equilibrium concentrations

may be different at different points.

percolation test
column test

release test method to determine the release of substances from a granular solid waste packed in a

column with a leachant percolating through it
[SOURCE: EN 16687:2015 [7], 4.2.4(edited to refer to granular waste)]
3.9
release
emission

liberation of chemical substances (e.g. non-volatile organic compounds, heavy metals, salts) from a

granular solid waste into soil, surface water or groundwater into the leachant of a test facility

Note 1 to entry: Release to soil, surface and groundwater is expressed in terms of mass related release (e.g. mg/kg).

Note 2 to entry: The terms “emission” and “release” have fundamentally the same meaning. However, it is often a

tradition to use the term “emission” when describing liberation of chemical substances or radiation into air and to

use the term “release” when describing the liberation of chemical substances into soil or water.

release mechanism

physical-chemical processes that control the release of substances from a granular solid waste into a

leachant

Note 1 to entry: In case of granular solid waste the main release mechanisms are washout a
