Abstract The principal objective of the research summarized in this report was to develop a leaching test which could be used widely to assess the leaching characteristics of industrial wastes. Detailed investigations were made regarding the best general type of test, and the test variables and operating conditions which must be standardized if the test is to be used by many laboratories and on different wastes. The recommended procedure is a batch or flask test, using distilled water plus other leaching media according to the characteristics of the landfill(s) of concern. One leaching medium simulates the leaching characteristics of leachate derived from actively decomposing municipal refuse landfills, for example. Test procedures were designed to provide information regarding the materials likely to be leached from a waste, an estimate of the maximum concentrations of these materials, an estimate of the amount of material likely to be released per unit weight of waste, and an indication of the effect of codisposal of the waste in question with mixed municipal refuse or other specific wastes.
