3 European foreword This document (EN 16720-1:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 308 “Characterization and management of sludge”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2016 and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2016. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. EN 16720, Characterization of sludges - Physical consistency consists of the following two parts: — Part 1: Determination of flowability - Method by extrusion tube apparatus
— Part 2: Determination of solidity (in preparation) According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. SIST EN 16720-1:2017

5 1 Scope This part of the European Standard specifies a method for determining the flowability, as defined in CEN/TR 15463, of sludge by means of the extrusion tube apparatus. This part of this European Standard is applicable to sludge and sludge suspensions from: — storm water handling; — urban wastewater collecting systems; — urban wastewater treatment plants; — plants treating industrial wastewater similar to urban wastewater (as defined in Directive 91/271/EEC); — water supply treatment plants. This method is also applicable to sludge and sludge suspensions of other origins. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 16323:2014, Glossary of wastewater engineering terms CEN/TR 15463:2007, Characterization of sludges - Physical consistency - Thixotropic behaviour and piling behaviour 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 16323:2014 and the following apply. 3.1 dynamic viscosity ratio of the applied shear stress to the shear rate (velocity gradient) in a rotating viscometer Note 1 to entry: Dynamic viscosity is the measure of the resistance to flow of a liquid. 3.2 flowability index Fi parameter indicating whether a sludge is in the “liquid” physical state or not, i.e. is able to flow under the effect of gravity or pressure below a certain threshold 3.3 non-Newtonian fluid fluid having a non-constant shear stress to shear rate ratio SIST EN 16720-1:2017

7 6 Test sample Sufficient volume of the test sample to fill up the apparatus (about 3 l) is required. The presence of coarse particles or lumps of aggregate in the suspension can cause clogging phenomena. If necessary, the sample shall be sieved to exclude particles larger than 2,5 mm (see 5.4). Furthermore, test could be negatively affected by fast-settling particles, clogging phenomena and presence of air bubbles, especially in the discharge pipes. Pour carefully the sludge in the cylinder along the wall to minimize bubbles. If necessary, homogenization at adequate stirring speed in the cylinder should be guaranteed to limit settling. Pre-sieving could limit clogging, but if it appears during test appropriate de-clogging actions could be adopted. 7 Procedure 7.1 Level the apparatus to assure verticality. 7.2 Fill up the cylinder with the sample by keeping closed the end side of the pipe(s) fitted at the bottom and while avoiding the presence of air bubbles. Make the transfer in such a manner th
