  2. Toxicity characteristic leaching procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxicity_characteristic...

    Toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) is a soil sample extraction method for chemical analysis employed as an analytical method to simulate leaching through a landfill. The testing methodology is used to determine if a waste is characteristically hazardous, i.e., classified as one of the "D" listed wastes by the U.S. Environmental ...

  3. EPA Methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPA_Methods

    The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains and approves test methods, which are approved procedures for measuring the presence and concentration of physical, chemical and biological contaminants; evaluating properties, such as toxic properties, of chemical substances; or measuring the effects of substances under various conditions.

  4. Effluent guidelines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent_guidelines

    The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issues Effluent Guideline regulations for categories of industrial sources of water pollution under Title III of the Clean Water Act (CWA). [1] The standards are technology-based, i.e. they are based on the performance of treatment and control technologies (e.g., Best Available Technology ).

  5. Effluent limitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent_limitation

    An effluent limitation is a United States Clean Water Act standard of performance reflecting a specified level of discharge reduction achievable by the best available technology or related standards for various sources of water pollution.

  6. New Source Performance Standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Source_Performance...

    New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) are pollution control standards issued by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The term is used in the Clean Air Act Extension of 1970 (CAA) to refer to air pollution emission standards, and in the Clean Water Act (CWA) referring to standards for water pollution discharges of industrial wastewater to surface waters.

  7. National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Emissions...

    The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) are air pollution standards issued by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The standards, authorized by the Clean Air Act, are for pollutants not covered by the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) that may cause an increase in fatalities or in serious, irreversible, or incapacitating illness.

  8. Dicopper chloride trihydroxide - Wikipedia

    Insoluble in water (pH 6.9 measured by EPA method SW846-9045) [1] Solubility: Insoluble in organic solvents ... data are given for materials in their standard state ...

  9. Best available technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best_Available_Technology

    In the development of the effluent standards, the BAT concept is a "model" technology rather than a specific regulatory requirement. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies a particular model technology for an industry, and then writes a regulatory performance standard based on the model. The performance standard is typically ...
