DS DSEN 14345 2005-APR-28 Characterzaton of waste - Determnaton of hydrocarbon content by gravmetry
This standard specifies a gravimetric method for the determination of the hydrocarbon content in solid and aqueous liquid waste. It is applicable to hydrocarbon content greater than 0,1 % (m/m) on dry matter basis and not applicable for waste with a high content of volatile hydrocarbons due to losses of these volatile compounds during the drying process. This method does not permit to provide qualitative information on the nature and the source of the hydrocarbons.
