3、atory weatheringprocedure that(1)enhances reaction-product transport in theaqueous leach of a solid material sample of specified mass,and(2)measures rates of weathering-product mass release.Solubleweathering products are mobilized by a fixed-volume aqueousleach that is performed and collected weekly
4、.Leachate samplesare analyzed for pH,alkalinity/acidity,specific conductance,sulfate,and other selected analytes.1.1.1 This test method is intended for use to meet kinetictesting regulatory requirements for mining waste rock and oressized to pass a 6.3-mm(0.25-in.)Tyler screen.1.1.2 Interlaboratory
5、testing of this method has been con-fined to mine waste rock.Application of this test method tometallurgical-processing waste(for example,mill tailings)isoutside the scope of the test method.1.2 This test method is a modification of a laboratoryweathering procedure developed originally for miningwas
6、tes(1-3).2However,it may have useful application wher-ever gaseous oxidation coupled with aqueous leaching areimportant mechanisms for contaminant mobility.1.3 This test method calls for the weekly leaching of awell-characterized solid material sample(weighing at least1000-g),with water of specified
7、 purity,and the collection andchemical characterization of the resulting leachate.Test dura-tion is determined by the users objectives of the test.1.4 As described,this test method may not be suitable forsome materials containing plastics,polymers,or refined met-als.These materials may be resistant
8、to traditional particle sizereduction methods.1.5 Additionally,this test method has not been tested forapplicability to organic substances and volatile matter.1.6 This test method is not intended to provide leachatesthat are identical to the actual leachate produced from a solidmaterial in the field
9、 or to produce leachates to be used as thesole basis of engineering design.1.7 This test method is not intended to simulate site-specificleaching conditions.It has not been demonstrated to simulateactual disposal site leaching conditions.Furthermore,the test isnot designed to produce effluents that
10、are in chemical equilib-rium with the solid phase sample.1.8 This test method is intended to describe the procedurefor performing the laboratory weathering of solid materials.Itdoes not describe all types of sampling and analytical require-ments that may be associated with its application.1.9 The va
