The international standardization and future work of the up-flow percolation test

Abstract

In assessing the environmental risk of contaminated soil and waste, it is crucial to understand the contaminants’ leaching characteristics. There are various leaching test methods such as single batch leaching test, serial batch leaching test, column water flow test, and tank leaching test. This paper outlines the test method and the results of the accuracy evaluation test of the up-flow percolation test.
