This document applies to the testing of surfaces that may become contaminated by radioactive materials. The ease of decontamination is a property of a surface and an important criterion for selecting surface materials used in the nuclear industry, interim storage or disposal facilities from which contamination can be removed easily and rapidly without damaging the surface. The test described in this document is a rapid laboratory-based method to compare the ease of decontamination of different surface materials. The results from the test can be one parameter to take into account when selecting surface coatings such as varnish or impervious layers such as ceramics and other surfaces. The radionuclides used in this test are those commonly found in the nuclear industry (137Cs, 134Cs and 60Co) in aqueous form. The test can also be adopted for use with other radionuclides and other chemical forms, depending on the customer requirements, if the solutions are chemically stable and do not corrode the test specimen. The test does not measure the ease of decontamination of the surface materials in practical use, as this depends on the radionuclide(s) present, their chemical form, the duration of exposure to the contaminant and the environmental conditions amongst other factors. The test method is not intended to describe general decontamination procedures or to assess the efficiency of decontamination procedures (see ISO 7503-1 to ISO 7503-3). The test method is not suitable for use of radiochemicals if the radionuclide emits low energy gamma rays or beta particles that are readily attenuated in the surface.

This document specifies requirements and recommendations for measuring the composition of CO2 streams during post capture pipeline transportation. The primary objective of this document is to establish standardized technical requirements and recommendations necessary for implementing regulations, commercial contracts, inventory ownership and fiscal transactions within the framework of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). This document includes measurements up to the storage injection points but does not cover Measurement, Monitoring, and Verification (MMV) once the CO2 has entered the geological storage complex. The differentiation between biogenic and non-biogenic CO2 in a CO2 stream is recognized as highly relevant for accounting purposes. However, the measurement methodologies for the biogenic CO2 fraction fall outside the scope of this document, which covers post-capture pipeline transportation. This document is not intended to differentiate between biogenic CO2 and CO2 produced from non-biogenic sources.

NOTE Throughout the breathing apparatus market exists a variety of cylinder valves that can have different ways of connecting to an EFD. The interchangeability of the EFD is only possible in the case of verified combinations of cylinder valve and EFD. The use of unverified combinations is not considered safe.

This part of ISO 11268 specifies one of the methods for evaluating the habitat function of soils and determining the acute toxicity of soil contaminants, waste materials and chemicals to Eisenia fetida/Eisenia andrei by dermal and alimentary uptake. It is applicable to soils and soil materials of unknown quality, e.g. from contaminated sites, amended soils, soils after remediation, agricultural or other sites concerned, and waste materials.

Effects of substances are assessed using a standard soil , preferably a defined artificial soil substrate. For contaminated soils, the effects on survival are determined in the test soil and in a control soil . According to the objective of the study, the control and dilution substrate (dilution series of contaminated soil) can be either an uncontaminated soil comparable to the soil sample to be tested ( reference soil ) or a standard soil (e.g. artificial soil).

Information is provided on how to use this method for testing chemicals under temperate as well as under tropical conditions.

The method is not applicable to substances for which the air/soil partition coefficient is greater than one, or to substances with vapour pressure exceeding 300 Pa at 25 °C.This method does not take into account the possible degradation of the substances or contaminants during the test.

This method also includes technical information on how to use it with other environmentally relevant earthworm species, i.e. Dendrodrilus rubidus and Aporrectodea caligin

This document specifies a method primarily developed for the determination of inorganic As(III) and As(V) species in soil.

This document specifies the long-term sampling of PCDDs/PCDFs/PCBs. There are three different sampling methods, which are based on the three different principles described in EN 1948-1, but partially modified for long-term sampling requirements:

— filter/condenser method;

— dilution method;

— cooled probe method.

Each sampling method is illustrated in detail in Annex D. The sampling methods described in this document are designed for a sampling duration of typically up to four weeks.

Additionally, this document specifies a framework of quality control requirements for any long-term sampling method.

With the methods described, experiences were gained for a concentration range up to 4,0 ng TEQ/m3 at various stationary sources (e.g. waste incinerators, sinter plants, cement kilns).

For complete implementation of the measurement method, the use of EN 1948-2 and EN 1948-3 describing extraction, clean-up, identification, and quantification, respectively, is necessary in order to determine PCDDs/PCDFs. Additionally, EN 1948-4 is necessary for PCBs.

This document is intended for the validation of codes used for the calculation of doses received by individuals on board aircraft. It gives guidance to radiation protection authorities and code developers on the basic functional requirements which the code fulfils.
