Do you have a specific analysis request? Do you need advice? Write to us or call us. We will send you a custom offer, including the price, by return.

Suitable for

• Construction and water management companies
• Waste management companies

Analysis options

• Leachate pursuant to Table 10.1 of Decree 273/2021

Determines (pursuant to Decree 273/2021)

• General leachate parameters
  • Physical-chemical parameters – pH, solutes
  • Inorganic parameters – chlorides, fluorides, sulphates, metals (As, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn, Mo, Sb, Se)
  • Organic parameters – BTEX, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls, hydrocarbons C₁₀-C₄₀, EOX, DOC, TOC, monohydric phenols
• Parameters (and consequently their limits) depend on the type of landfill to be used for the disposal of the waste (inert, other or hazardous waste landfill)

Analysis duration: usually seven to ten business days

Additional information

• Waste is split into inert, other and hazardous. The landfill must be selected depending on the type of waste it is authorised to accept
• The decree requires sampling by a qualified person (however some landfills and depots do not require this)
• The leachate determines the waste leachability class (I, IIa, IIb (for landfill closure) and III) – basic analysis for landfilling
• For waste intended for an inert waste landfill
  • Table 10.1 – leachate class I (Decree 273/2021)
  • Further, the parameters pursuant to Table 10.2 (Decree 273/2021) – BTEX, C₁₀-C₄₀, PAU, PCB
• For other waste landfills (S-OO1, S-OO3)
  • Table 10.1 – leachate class IIa (Decree 273/2021)
  • S-OO3 where DOC is exceeded can be landfilled where Table 10.3 is complied with (C₁₀-C₄₀, PAU, benzo(a)pyrene, EOX
• For a hazardous waste landfill
  • Table 10.1 – leachate class III
• Waste containing a biodegradable component and treatment products also requires a respiratory activity test for stabilised biowaste (AT4)
• Where asbestos is suspected, fibre content is determined
• In specific cases, the limit value set by the decree can be exceeded by a factor of three
