Standard EN SampleCharacterization of Sludges: Sludge Management in Relation to Use or Disposal
Also Known As:
The PD CEN/TS 13714:2013 standard provides guidance on the production, control, and management of sludge. It focuses on evaluating recovery, recycling, and disposal options for sludge based on its properties and the availability of outlets.
This technical specification is applicable to various types of sludges, including those from storm water handling, night soil, urban wastewater collecting systems, urban wastewater treatment plants, treating industrial wastewater similar to urban wastewater as defined in Directive 91/271/EC, and water supply treatment plants. However, it excludes hazardous sludges from industry.
The purpose of this standard is to provide a comprehensive framework for managing sludge, from understanding its characteristics to making informed decisions on how to handle, utilize, or dispose of it. It aims to promote sustainable sludge management practices that minimize environmental impact and maximize resource recovery.
