Sludge, treated biowaste and soil - Determination of total nitrogen using dry combustion method

This European Standard specifies the determination of total nitrogen (organic and inorganic) according to the procedure of Dumas in sludge, treated biowaste and soil. A typical limit of detection is 0,02 % nitrogen, and a typical limit of quantification is 0,08 % nitrogen.

Schlamm, behandelter Bioabfall und Boden - Bestimmung des Gesamt-Stickstoffgehalts mittels trockener Verbrennung

Diese Europäische Norm legt das von Dumas entwickelte Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Gesamt-Stickstoffs (organisch und anorganisch) in Schlamm, behandeltem Bioabfall und Boden fest. Eine typische Nachweisgrenze liegt bei 0,02 % Stickstoff und eine typische Bestimmungsgrenze liegt bei 0,08 % Stickstoff.

Boue, biodéchet traité et sol - Détermination de la teneur totale en azote par combustion sèche

La présente Norme européenne spécifie la détermination de la teneur totale en azote (organique et inorganique) selon le mode opératoire de Dumas dans les boues, les biodéchets traités et les sols. La limite de détection type est 0,02 % d'azote, et La limite de quantification type est 0,08 % d'azote.

Blato, obdelani biološki odpadki in tla - Določevanje celotnega dušika z metodo suhega sežiga

Ta evropski standard opredeljuje določevanje celotnega (organskega in anorganskega) dušika v skladu z Dumasovo metodo v blatu, obdelanih bioloških odpadkih in tleh. Običajna meja detekcije je 0,02 % dušika, meja kvantifikacije pa 0,08 % dušika.

EN 16168:2012 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 16168:2012) 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. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by February 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2013. 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. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. 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 implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, 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.
