Percolation test (column test) L/S 0.1 & 10

Percolation test (5 cm diameter column) according to SIS-CEN/TS 14405

Package info

Price: 10 640 SEK / sample
Std. response time: 8 weeks
Discount group: 1
Sample type: Waste/construction material
Analysis type: Leaching tests
Sample amount: approx. 5 kg
Express: No
Accreditation: Yes
Remarks: A sample is sieved (or crushed) at <4 mm or <10 mm depending on column diameter. The sample is packed and leached while continuously increasing the L/S ratio by slowly pumping in deionized water from the bottom of the column. Maximum 7 leachates are extracted from the column at the L/S ratios 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5 and 10. The leachates are analyzed separately. Leachate analyses not included in the price.
