Comprehensive Guide to EN 12393 Monitoring Chemical Residues in Airborne Dust Laboratory Testing Service by Eurolab

Standard-Related Information

EN 12393 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for monitoring chemical residues in airborne dust. The standard is published by CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and is part of the EN series, which covers various aspects of air quality management.

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding EN 12393 testing is governed by national and international regulations. In the European Union, the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) requires industries to monitor airborne emissions, including dust. The standard is also relevant for industries operating in other regions, such as the United States, where the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates air quality.

International standards that apply to EN 12393 testing include:

  • ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management Systems)

  • ASTM E2607-08 (Standard Practice for Determining Airborne Particulate Concentrations)

    • National standards and regulations may also apply, depending on the specific industry or location. For example, in Germany, the Industrial Emissions Directive is implemented through the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG).

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in maintaining and updating EN 12393. CEN works with member states to develop and revise standards, ensuring they remain relevant and effective.

    Standard Requirements and Needs

    The need for EN 12393 testing arises from various business and technical reasons:

  • Regulatory compliance: Industries must monitor airborne emissions to meet regulatory requirements.

  • Product safety: Chemical residues in airborne dust can pose risks to human health and the environment.

  • Quality assurance: Regular testing ensures that industries maintain high-quality products and processes.

    • Consequences of not performing EN 12393 testing include:

  • Non-compliance with regulations

  • Risk to human health and the environment

  • Damage to reputation and brand image

    • Industries requiring EN 12393 testing include:

  • Mining

  • Construction

  • Manufacturing (e.g., cement, steel)

  • Power generation (e.g., coal-fired power plants)

    • Risk factors and safety implications of airborne chemical residues in dust include:

  • Health risks: respiratory problems, cancer

  • Environmental impacts: air pollution, soil contamination

    • Quality assurance and quality control aspects are essential for ensuring accurate test results. This includes:

  • Calibration and validation of testing equipment

    • The test contributes to product safety and reliability by identifying potential risks associated with airborne chemical residues in dust.

    Test Conditions and Methodology

    EN 12393 testing involves the following steps:

    1. Sampling: Airborne dust is collected using suitable sampling equipment (e.g., filters, impingers).

    2. Sample preparation: The collected dust is analyzed to determine chemical composition.

    3. Testing: The prepared samples are subjected to various analytical techniques (e.g., chromatography, spectroscopy) to quantify chemical residues.

    Testing parameters and conditions include:

  • Sampling rate

  • Filter type and size

  • Analytical technique(s)

  • Calibration and validation procedures

    • Measurement and analysis methods used in EN 12393 testing include:
