Characterisation of sludges - Hygienic aspects - Treatments; German version CEN/TR 15809:2008

Abstract

This CEN Technical Report gives guidance on good practice for the hygienic aspects of the use of sludges on land. It concerns microbiological aspect as an important consideration in the management of sludge in accordance with environmental requirements (e.g. human-, animal- and plant health, etc.). It applies to all utilisations of sludge in the environment (e.g. agriculture, land reclamation, cover for landfills, manufacturing of soil). It also gives information about existing treatment processes to reach hygienic requirements. This CEN Technical report is applicable to sludge produced by urban wastewater treatment plants and systems . Sludges of other origin are not in the exact scope of the document, however the handling of most of these sludges will comply to a large extent with the leads given in this document.
