Abstract:
A framework for the evaluation of inorganic constitutent leaching fromwastes and secondary materials is presented. The framework is based
on the measurement of intrinsic leaching properties of the material
in conjunction with mathematical modeling to estimate release under
field management scenarios. Site-specific and default scenarios are
considered, which may be selected based on the evaluation context. A
tiered approach is provided to allow the end user to balance between
the specificity of the release estimate, the amount of testing knowledge
required, a priori knowledge, and resources required to complete
an evaluation. Detailed test methodologies are provided for a suite
of laboratory leaching tests.
