EN 12457-4 Characterization of Waste, Suitability Test for Leaching, Leaching of Granular Waste Materials and Sludges

Applies to wastes with a particle size of less than 10 mm or with no or limited size reduction. In some cases it may be useful to test the material with coarser particles up to 40 mm in diameter: this requires a larger amount of material and liquid.
