Scope1.1 This terminology contains standard definitions of termsused in the general area of waste and waste management. It isintended to promote understanding by provi
3、ding precise tech-nical definitions of terms used in the standards developed byCommittee D34 and its subcommittees.1.2 Terms used only within an individual standard, andhaving a meaning unique to that standard, may be defined orexplained in the terminology section of that individual stan-dard.1.3 Th
4、is standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

The AP iscommonly converted to the amount of calcium carbonaterequired to neutralize the resulting amount of acidic effluentproduced by the oxidation of contained iron sulfide minerals;it is expressed as the equivalent tons of calcium carbonateper
