25、 5 Summary At the initiative of CEN/TC 51 (Cement and building limes) and CEN/TC 104 (Concrete and related products), a task group (TG 6) of TC 51/WG 12 was convened in order to accompany or follow research work being carried out within the EC research programme which has the objective of establishi

26、ng the effects, if any, of concrete on the natural environment and the potential effects of cementitious materials on the quality of drinking water. This Technical Report deals only with developments, as officially reported, by a consortium of Dutch/German Institutes, to the European Commission in E

27、UR 17869 EN 1, leading to a performance test method for characterising the leaching behaviour of hardened concrete for use in contact with the natural environment. NOTE The standardisation of test methods for the use of cementitious materials (possibly including concrete) in contact with drinking wa

28、ter, although not fundamentally different in principle, is being developed within an adhoc group of CEN/TC 164/WG 3 and will be reported elsewhere. The protection of the natural environment and the publics health and safety are matters of major importance. Also of significant importance, however, is

29、 the efficient and sustainable use of natural and secondary materials/resources. Many of these may be used as constituents of concrete. The need to appropriately balance these two issues within the concept of sustainable construction, provided the motivation for the investigations considered in this

30、 Technical Report. The prenormative research, underpinning this Technical Report, included a literature survey and three progressively staged interlaboratory studies (ILS). These led to the refinement of a characterisation (sequential leaching) test, comprising a tank (diffusion) test and a separate

31、 availability (maximum leaching) test. A single-extraction compliance test was not developed. A range of inorganic components/species (anionic and cationic) was targeted; some with a potential environmental significance, others of a more mechanistic relevance. Overall, a statistical and mechanistic

32、evaluation of the results within EUR 17869 EN 1 and an environmental analysis undertaken in this Technical Report, has lead to the following conclusions. The leaching of major components/species, which have no environmental significance (e.g. Ca, Na, K and SO 4 ) from monolithic hardened concrete is

33、 diffusion controlled. Diffusion control could not be demonstrated, even after 14 days of leaching, for most environmentally relevant elements (e.g. As, Cd, Co and Cu) even from a relatively weak and porous concrete, since concentrations were at or below the limits of detections (DTL) of the sensiti

34、ve instrumental techniques employed. Leached levels of components from monoliths are not related, in any simple or consistent manner, to the total concentrations of components present in concrete, and are, typically, orders of magnitude smaller. Leached levels of components from monolithic specimens

35、 are not related, in any simple or consistent manner, to amounts apparently available for leaching as indicated from a leaching test on finely ground concrete and the appropriateness of using such a test in attempting to characterise the leaching behaviour of hardened concrete is subject to continui

36、ng discussion. The concentration levels found in almost all leachates from the different tests were very low and often near the limit of the chemical analysis, indicating the good environmental quality of the concrete mixes tested. PD CEN/TR 16142:2011 CEN/TR 16142:2011 (E) 6 Concrete, containing a

37、bituminous coal fly ash constituent specifically selected for its relatively high content of trace/heavy metals, and designed to represent a worst case within EN 206-1 2 in terms of permeability, did not show significant leaching of trace/heavy metals. Most components were at concentrations below th

38、e analytical limits of detection. The anomalous leaching behaviour shown by specimens where the mixing water was spiked with aqueous solutions of the very mobile oxyanions of As, Cr, Cd and V, indicates that they were not representative of real concretes, as acknowledged by the research investigator

39、s. The disproportionate effect observed in the investigations, between the relatively large amounts of trace/heavy metals added as spikes to fresh concrete and apparently available for leaching, versus the minimal amounts actually leached, suggests that substituting standardized recycled or more mar

40、ginal, but standardized, novel materials for the traditional constituents of concrete, would not significantly affect concretes environmental compatibility. Subjecting the solid constituents of concrete to test, in isolation, either on the basis of their total elemental composition, or their respons

41、e to an availability test, or their individual performance in a compliance test, will give no indication of their potential performance (either relative or absolute) when chemically and physically bound in hardened concrete. The characterisation leaching method, reproduced in Part II of this Technic

42、al Report, demonstrates such poor reproducibility (R approximately 76 % at 14d for trace metals As/Cd/Cr/V) that without much further investigation and development, it should not proceed to CEN/TS status or become the precursor to a draft compliance test or be used for any regulatory purpose. Concre

43、tes within the envelope of compositions permitted in the EN 206-1 2 will have an insignificant impact upon the natural environment under conditions of natural exposure. 1 Introduction Traditionally, hardened concrete has not been perceived to be a material which has contributed emissions adversely a

44、ffecting the quality of the natural environment. Indeed, concrete construction in contact with the natural environment constitutes the bedrock of infrastructure and the built environment. Additionally, hardened concrete has never been shown to be responsible for any incidence of environmental pollut

45、ion. Accordingly, within the range of traditional compositions used in the EU Member States, concretes environmental service record can be taken to be unblemished. Concrete, unlike most other construction materials, is an active material; its chemical and physical microstructure develops in a contin

46、uous process as it ages. These changes give rise to a densification of the matrix, with attendant reductions in porosity/permeability and a more efficient/effective binding of chemical species within the hydrate structures. It would be expected that concretes leaching behaviour would also be subject

47、 to age-related changes and that this would be dissimilar to many other materials. Much research indicates that this is the case and so calls into question whether protocols, derived as in this study, from those developed for testing inert materials, are at all appropriate for concrete. Concrete is,

48、 however, in common with other construction materials, subject to continual product development. Its compositional complexity is increasing, as constituent materials, formerly considered to be marginal, are either now in use or being considered for use. In the absence of quantitative information, some of the more marginal materials (e.g. where a total analysis reveals an apparently high heavy metal content) can give rise to concerns about their potential emission levels. In addition, envi
