Soil and waste - Guidance on the selection and application of screening methods (ISO 12404:2021)

This document provides guidance on the selection and application of screening methods for assessing soil quality and waste characterization, including distribution of target parameters in soil and soil‑like material. The aim of this document is to set up criteria as to when the different kind of screening methods can be applied for the analysis of a certain parameter in soil, including soil‑like material, and waste, and which steps are required to prove their suitability.
This document does not recommend any particular screening method but confirms the principles of their selection and application.

Boden und Abfall - Anleitung für die Auswahl und Anwendung von Screening-Verfahren (ISO 12404:2021)

Dieses Dokument gibt Anleitung zur Auswahl und Anwendung von Screening Verfahren für die Bewertung der Bodenbeschaffenheit und zur Charakterisierung von Abfällen, einschließlich der Verteilung von Zielparametern im Boden und bodenähnlichen Feststoffen. Ziel dieses Dokuments ist es, Kriterien dafür aufzustellen, wann die verschiedenen Arten von Screening Verfahren für die Analyse eines bestimmten Parameters im Boden, einschließlich bodenähnlichen Feststoffs, und Abfall angewendet werden können und welche Schritte zum Nachweis ihrer Eignung erforderlich sind.
Dieses Dokument empfiehlt kein bestimmtes Screening Verfahren, legt jedoch die Prinzipien dessen Auswahl und Anwendung fest.

Sol et déchets - Recommandations relatives à la sélection et à l'application des méthodes de diagnostic rapide (ISO 12404:2021)

Le présent document fournit des recommandations relatives à la sélection et à l’application de méthodes de diagnostic rapide pour l’évaluation de la qualité des sols et la caractérisation des déchets, y compris la répartition des paramètres cibles des sols et des solides assimilables aux sols. Le présent document a pour objet de fixer des critères permettant de décider dans quels cas les différents types de méthodes de diagnostic rapide peuvent être appliqués pour l’analyse d’un paramètre donné relatif à un sol, y compris un solide assimilable au sol, et à un déchet; il s’agit également de préciser quelles étapes sont nécessaires pour en démontrer l’adéquation.
Le présent document ne recommande aucune méthode de diagnostic rapide en particulier mais il confirme les principes de sélection et d’application de ces méthodes.
