Depending on its composition, waste from mirror entries has to be categorized as hazardous or non-hazardous. The hazard property ‘ecotoxic’ (HP 14) can be evaluated based on the content of hazardous substances in the respective waste or using ecotoxicity tests with samples and eluates of this waste. At the EU level, specific requirements for the […]
The European List of Wastes (Decision 2000/532/EC, amended by Decision 2014/955/EC) contains a list of waste types: absolute hazardous entries (wastes that are hazardous without further assessment), absolute non-hazardous entries (wastes that are non-hazardous without further assessment) and mirror entries (wastes that can be classified as either hazardous or non-hazardous, depending on their properties). A waste is defined as hazardous, if it displays at least one of 15 hazard properties or contains certain persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in concentrations above the specified limit values. The hazard property ‘ecotoxic’ (HP 14) can be evaluated using a calculation approach based on the content of hazardous substances in a waste sample or using ecotoxicity tests with the respective waste sample or waste sample eluate…
The ecotoxicological characterization of waste is part of its assessment as hazardous or non-hazardous according to the European List of Wastes (LoW, 2000/532/EC) amended by Directive 2008/98/EG and Regulation 2017/997. For this assessment, 15 hazard properties are evaluated. So far, there is no harmonised guidance for evaluation of the hazard property ‘ecotoxic’ (HP 14) using […]
The ecotoxicological characterisation of waste according to the European List of Wastes (Decision 2000/532/EC) is part of the assessment as hazardous or non-hazardous. So far, guidance is lacking regarding the evaluation of the hazard property ‘ecotoxic’ (HP 14; formerly H 14) using biotests. Based on the recommendations of EN 14735 and experiences made in an […]
