Characterization of sludges - Determination of dry residue and water content

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of dry residue and water content of sludges and sludge products. This method is applicable to the determination of dry residue and water content of sludges which include liquid, paste-like or solid matter.

Charakterisierung von Schlämmen - Bestimmung des Trockenrückstandes und des Wassergehalts

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Trockenrückstandes und des Wassergehaltes von Schlamm und Schlammprodukten fest. Das Verfahren ist anwendbar zur Bestimmung des Trockenrückstandes und Wassergehalts von flüssigen,
pastösen oder festen Schlämmen.

Caractérisation des boues - Détermination de la teneur en matière sèche et de la teneur en eau

La présente norme européenne spécifie une méthode de détermination de la teneur en matière sèche et de la teneur en eau des boues et des produits dérivés. La méthode est applicable pour la détermination de la teneur en matière sèche et de la teneur en eau des boues
qui sont à l'état liquide, pâteux ou solide.
