Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 12782-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 190, Soil quality, Subcommittee SC 7, Soil and
site assessment.
ISO 12782 consists of the following parts, under the general title Soil quality — Parameters for geochemical
modelling of leaching and speciation of constituents in soils and materials:
— Part 1: Extraction of amorphous iron oxides and hydroxides with ascorbic acid
— Part 2: Extraction of crystalline iron oxides and hydroxides with dithionite
— Part 3: Extraction of aluminium oxides and hydroxides with ammonium oxalate/oxalic acid
— Part 4: Extraction of humic substances from solid samples
— Part 5: Extraction of humic substances from aqueous samples

Introduction
In addition to leaching procedures for subsequent chemical and ecotoxicological testing of soil and other
materials including waste, predictive models are becoming indispensable tools in the environmental risk
assessment of these materials. Models are particularly required when the results of laboratory leaching tests
are to be translated to specific scenarios in the field, with regard to assessing the risks of both contaminant
migration and bioavailability.
In the past few years, geochemical models have been shown to be valuable tools to be combined with the
data obtained from characterization leaching standards. such as pH-dependence and percolation tests. These
models have the advantage of being based on fundamental thermodynamic parameters that have a general
validity. In order to enable extrapolation of laboratory leaching data to the mobility and/or bioavailability of
a constituent in a specific field scenario, these models require additional input parameters for specific soil
properties (see Figure 1).

Characterization leaching standards provide information on the concentrations of the contaminant of interest as
a function of, in particular, pH and liquid/solid (L/S) ratio. In addition, a more complete analysis of the leachates
also provides information on the major ion composition and dissolved organic carbon (DOC), parameters that
are particularly important for the chemical speciation of constituents through processes such as precipitation,
complexation and competition for adsorption on reactive mineral and organic surfaces in the soil. As illustrated
