The Rotoshake RS12 from Gerhardt extracts various constituents from waste samples before disposal at landfill sites.
The shaking of the aqueous sample solutions simulates the leaching caused by rain.
The results determine the classification of the waste as inert, non-hazardous or hazardous.
Each of these categories has a leaching limit criteria for acceptance of a waste material at the relevant landfill site (WAC).
The price charged is dependent upon the category of landfill required.
Analyses include various metals, chloride, fluoride and sulphate, phenol index and total dissolved solids.
