If the waste does not meet these thresholds, the sulphates considers appropriate acceptance criteria if leaching test does not exceed one of the following limits: 1500 mg/l as C0 if L/S = 0.1 l/kg and 6000 mg/kg if the L/S = 10 l/kg. Use the percolation test to determine the threshold, if L/S = 0.1 l/kg, in accordance with the original terms of the equilibrium, because the threshold is determined either by a set of sample leaching test, or with the percolation test under conditions close to the local balance.
** If waste pH value does not correspond to the concentration of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), you can also check if the L/S = 10 l/kg and up to 8.0 7.5 pH from. Waste can be considered as appropriate the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) acceptance criteria, if not exceed 500 mg/kg.
