Chapter Seven of the SW-846 Compendium: Introductory and Regulatory Definitions Pertaining to Hazardous Waste Characteristics
This chapter addresses procedures for required "method-defined parameters" (MDPs), where the analytical result is wholly dependent on the process used to make the measurement. Examples include the use of the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) to prepare a leachate, and the flash point, pH, paint filter liquids, and corrosivity tests.
