Samenvatting:
For quality control purposes in waste stabilization plants, tests with ashort turn around time are needed to allow timely changes in plant operation.
The characterization leaching tests, currently specified in the Building
Materials Decree, likely to be implemented in the Disposal Decree, take
several weeks to perform and are therefore not suited for this purpose. In
the current study, a scheme of testing has been developed, in which
characterization leaching tests form the basis for the ultimate decision
making, but where short tests are used in connection with these more
elaborate testing methods to allow timely changes in the plant operation. An
additional aspect of this approach is the option to carry out the testing
relatively shortly after setting, as a 28-day delay before carrying out a 1-2
day test is not an improvement in test turn-around time. A further benefit of
the characterization (extended with pH dependence) is the reduction in
parameters that need to be tested on a routine basis as the risk of exceeding
the critical regulatory levels for several constituents can be shown to be
marginal within the limited number of recipes in operation. The rationale of
the testing scheme and results of the quality control under normal operating
conditions are presented. 8 refs.
