OUR MISSION
Our mission is to offer innovative and exceptional services through
analytical processes and methodologies, that help organizations and
industries of all sizes to achieve predictably, improved, cost-effective
product quality levels, while maintaining integrity in testing procedures.
Summary of Capabilities
Manarah Shada Lab follows USEPA SW-846 methods which are specific for waste
characterization to classify which waste products are hazardous or nonhazardous to determine the appropriate disposal process. The Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) method commonly performed by
Manarah Shada Lab that identifies hazardous wastes they may leach into the
environment.

TCLP Test?
TCLP or Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure is a chemical analysis process used to
determine whether there are hazardous elements present in a waste. The test involves a
simulation of leaching through a landfill and can provide a rating that can prove if the waste is
dangerous to the environment or not. This rating can dictate the waste management
methodology that the company adopts to dispose of the waste afterwards.
About TCLP
The Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure test determines:
•
The mobility of organic and inorganic contaminants in waste materials
•
Hazardous and nonhazardous wastes for disposal in the appropriate landfill
•
How percolating liquids may react with solid waste in simulated landfill conditions
•
The number of EPA-listed contaminants are present and likely to be absorbed into
soil and groundwater
•
What possible public health or environmental health hazards exist in the sludge being
tested.
•
TCLP analysis is helpful in exploring all possible options for the safe disposal of
hazardous material. Disposing of contaminated waste can cost as little as $20/ton to
as much as $500/ton, so it’s good to know what you’re dealing with before you get to
the Environmental Compliance Supervisor at the municipal landfill.
The TCLP Test
Our TCLP method is identical to the procedure detailed by the Royal Commission
Environmental Department:
Separation of liquid wastes: Liquids (containing less than 0.5% dry solid material) are filtered
through glass fiber to create a TCLP extract. Wastes (containing 0.5% or greater dry matter)
are separated and stored for later analysis.
Particle size reduction: Using a standard 9.5 mm sieve, we filter solid material and prepare it
for extraction by cutting, crushing or grinding to a particle size of 1 cm or less.
Extraction of solid material: The solid material is then extracted for at least 18 hours with a
slightly acidic fluid equal to 20 times its weight. The materials are placed in a tumbler to
simulate the leaching action of water seeping through waste in the landfill.
Final separation: The liquid waste is then separated from the solid waste through a fiber glass
filter. The solid material is discarded and the liquid components are then assessed. The initial
liquid components may be added or may be analyzed separately, depending on compatibility.
TCLP testing analysis: Lastly, we identify and quantify all inorganic and organic materials
using EPA-approved methods.
