Attention is drawn t

16、o the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This CEN-Report “Physical Consistency” derives from the Desk Studies “Physical Properties Flowability” (HO

17、RIZONTAL Report No. 21 60) and “Physical Properties Solidity, Thixotropic Behaviour and Piling Behaviour” (HORIZONTAL Report No. 22 61) of the Horizontal Project. The “Horizontal” project has the objective to develop horizontal and harmonised European Standards in the fields of sludge, bio-waste and

18、 soil to facilitate regulation of these major streams in the multiple decisions related to different uses and disposal governed by EU Directives. The Horizontal Project includes the Work Package 7 “Mechanical properties” consisting in the development of Desk Studies on physical consistency, because

19、it is recognized that this property is very important for the characterization of sludge, since it affects almost all treatment, utilization and disposal operations, such as storage, pumping, transportation, handling, land-spreading, dewatering, drying, landfilling. The importance of the physical co

20、nsistency is also true for the characterization of bio-waste and soil. Also handling and utilization of many other materials, such as cement and asphalt are strictly depending on their physical consistency. The needs for control of operations and also material characteristics are described. The firs

21、t action carried out is consisted in searching for existing standards to be possibly used or adapted for utilisation in the specific field of consistency evaluation. The complete list of standards is reported in Annex 1 of the HORIZONTAL Reports No. 21 60 and No. 22 61, from which it can be seen tha

22、t more than 250 standards and non-standardised methods are potentially applicable to consistency evaluation. On the basis of the selected list of standards and non-standardised methods for further consideration the methods for the determination of flowability, solidity, thixotropic behaviour and pil

23、ing behaviour of sludge, bio-waste and soil have been divided into several groups, according to the instruments used for measuring: Flowability: Capillary viscometers, Penetrometers, Rotational viscometers and Flow apparatus. Solidity: Shearing apparatus, Vane testing apparatus and Penetrometers. Th

24、ixotropic behaviour: It should be investigated a combination of methods for determination of the solidity like penetration, etc. and an energy-input in terms of “flow“ apparatus to simulate the shear stress. Piling behaviour: Slump test apparatus, Compacting apparatus, Cubic Piling Box (CPB) and “Tu

25、rned Box“. For each group was evaluated the laboratory or field test feasibility. Apparatuses of the measuring procedures and existing applications to different materials were described. On this basis the applicability of the described methods to the materials of investigation was evaluated and docu

26、mented in the lists of analysed standards. The recommended methods are for flowability the coaxial cylinder viscometer as laboratory apparatus, while field apparatus are flow cone, magnesium penetration cone and extrusion tube viscometer. The recommended methods are for solidity the “Laboratory vane

27、 shear apparatus” and “Vicat needle” as laboratory reference and the pocket penetrometers for field test. The penetrometers in general could be used for both laboratory reference method and field test. Also for determination of the thixotropic behaviour the penetrometer is together with an energy-in

28、put in terms of a vibrating table or a hammer a suitable instrument. For measuring the piling behaviour the Cubic Piling Box (CPB) and the Oedometer are the recommended methods, whereby the CPB could be used in both laboratory and field while the Oedometer could be used only in the laboratory. All m

29、ethods should be tested and optimized to adapt design and part dimensions to the materials in a future experimental activity. CEN/TR 15463:20075 For the research needs first the basics of methods are explicated and the applicability of methods to the materials is clarified. The questions to be answe

30、red (precision, repeatability, reliability, etc.), the route, how to answer them and finally the steps to be taken are important for following procedures. In the Horizontal Report No. 21 a total of 6 proposals for draft standards are given, whereby one laboratory method and five field tests exist. I

31、n the Horizontal-Report No. 22 a total of 11 proposals for draft standards are given, consisting of six laboratory methods and five field tests. CEN/TR 15463:20076 1 Introduction 1.1 The Horizontal project and the Work Package 7 The revision of the Sewage Sludge Directive 86/278/EEC, the upcoming Co

32、mposting Directive on the biological treatment of biodegradable waste and the Soil Monitoring Directive call for standards on sampling, hygienic and biological parameters, methods for inorganic and organic contaminants, and for mechanical properties of these materials. In addition, when materials ca

33、nnot be utilized, landfilling becomes important, in which case leaching becomes an issue as stipulated by the Council Directive 1999/31/EC on the landfill of waste. More recently, a Council Decision establishing criteria and procedures for the acceptance of waste at landfills, pursuant to Article 16

34、 and Annex II of mentioned Directive on the landfill of waste was issued (16/12/02) with physical consistency being one basic parameter of interest. The “Horizontal” project has the objective to develop horizontal and harmonised European Standards in the fields of sludge, bio-waste and soil to facil

35、itate regulation of these major streams in the multiple decisions related to different uses and disposal governed by EU Directives. Part of the work to be carried out will focus on co-normative work with an emphasis on horizontal standardization starting from existing standards developed for the sam

36、e parameter in the fields of sludge, bio-waste and soil. Another part of the work will focus on pre-normative research required to develop standards lacking at this point and needed in the next revision of the regulations in these fields. The work within the HORIZONTAL Project was coordinated in the

37、 Work Package 7 “Mechanical properties” and done in cooperation of the involved teams. It consists in the development of the Desk Studies on physical consistency mentioned above, because it is recognized that this property is very important for the characterization of sludge e.g., since it affects a

38、lmost all treatment, utilization and disposal operations, such as storage, pumping, transportation, handling, land-spreading, dewatering, drying, landfilling. In fact, the selection of the most suitable equipment and procedure for land application, storage and transportation of sludge e.g. is strong

39、ly connected to its consistency. Similarly, compacting sludge in a landfill or forming a pile in composting is depending on sludge shear strength rather than on its solids concentration. In particular, with reference to the regulations requirements, according to the Sludge Directive 278/86, agricult

40、ural reused sludge should have agronomic interest, be healthy and easily usable, i.e. easily stored, transported, handled, and spread. In Council Directive 1999/31/EC (Landfill Directive), Article 2 (q) gives a definition of “liquid waste”, and Article 5 (3.a) does not allow a liquid waste to be lan

41、dfilled, but a standardized method for this evaluation has to be developed yet. Further, Annex II (2. General principles) requires that “The composition, and general properties of a waste to be landfilled must be known as precisely as possible”, and Annex I (6. Stability) is referring to “. ensure s

42、tability of the mass of waste . particularly in respect of avoidance of slippage”, so the shear strength and piling behaviour should be known. Article 2 (h) says, that “treatment means . processes . in order to facilitate its handling”. Finally, Article 11 (1.b) asks for: “ visual inspection of the

43、waste at the entrance and at the point of deposit and, as appropriate, verification of conformity with the description provided in the document submitted by the holder”, so simple and easy tests to be carried out on the field and followed by the operators should be defined. Further, the Council Dire

44、ctive establishing criteria and procedures for the acceptance of waste at landfills, pursuant to Article 16 and Annex II of mentioned Directive on waste landfilling included “consistency” among the basic parameters to be evaluated for waste characterization before landfilling; for specific cases it

45、is also demanded, that EU Member States must set criteria to ensure a sufficient physical stability and bearing capacity of waste. It is also to be pointed out that in many analytical methods for sludge characterization (e.g. pH, dry matter, leachability, etc.) different procedures are indicated dep

46、ending on whether the sample to be examined is liquid or not, is solid or not, but no procedures are given for evaluating such properties. The importance of the physical consistency is also true for the characterization of bio-waste and soil. CEN/TR 15463:20077 1.2 Desk study subject The Task Group

47、3 (TG3) of CEN/TC308/WG1 defined 3 physical states for sludge (CEN/TC308/WG1/TG3, 2000): a) Liquid: sludge flowing under the effect of gravity or pressure below a certain threshold. b) Paste-like: sludge capable of continuous flow under the effect of pressure above a certain threshold and having a s

48、hear resistance below a certain threshold. c) Solid: sludge having a shear resistance above a certain threshold. This firstly involves the necessity to set up methods to measure values in the range of the boundary area between liquid and paste-like behaviours (limit of flowability) and that between

49、solid and paste-like (limit of solidity). Further, the thixotropic behaviour of solid materials (from “the solid to the liquid state and vice versa”) should be evaluated, together with the piling behaviour referred both to “compaction and physical stability”. Also the CEN/TC292/WG2, in the method EN 12457 for the characterisation of waste included in Annex B (Informative) the description of a test for determining whether waste is in the liquid state (CEN/TC292/WG2, 2002). Although the methods to be developed are partly known and used in other technolog
