Description / Abstract:
Procedures for preparation of linear fluorescent lamps for Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching
Procedure (TCLP) are presented below. These procedures are intended to
supplement the TCLP by
supplying specific instructions for size reduction and for other
critical procedures specific to
the testing of linear fluorescent lamps.
This standard specifically covers common linear fluorescent lamp
types. Additional standards are in
preparation for high intensity discharge lamps, compact fluorescent
lamps, and other types that
require specific sample preparation instructions because of their
design or construction.
The protocol that follows is grouped to include general requirements,
lamp preparation, leaching,
filtration, storage, and leaching vessel reuse.
