This Standard provides a method for the preparation of leachates from liquid and solid wastes, sediments, sludges and soils for assessing the potential of non-volatile inorganic and semi-volatile organic contamination of groundwater, in a variety of disposal-to-land scenarios.
This Standard deals only with the preparation of the leachate.
This Standard excludes procedures prior to submitting samples to the laboratory for analysis or sub-sampling.
The range of analyte compounds includes those compounds with a vapour pressure <10 Pa at 20 °C and with a boiling point greater than 150 °C at one standard atmosphere.
