1、Designation: E 1756 01Standard Test Method forDetermination of Total Solids in Biomass1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1756; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe total solids content is used to adjust the mass of the biomass so that all analytical results maybe reported on a moisture-free basis. To

3、tal solids content may be determined by overnight drying at105C in a convection oven or with a loss-on-drying moisture analyzer.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the amountof total solids remaining after drying a sample. Materialssuitable for this procedure include samples pre

4、pared in accor-dance with Practice E 1757 and extractive-free material pre-pared in accordance with Test Method E 1690. For particulatewood fuels, Test Method E 871 should be used.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of

5、 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.

7、he prepared biomass at 105C to constant mass. For thepurposes of this procedure, the moisture content of a biomasssample is considered to be the amount of mass lost during thedrying of the sample at 105C to constant mass. An inherenterror of this and any oven-drying procedure is that volatilesubstan

8、ces other than water are removed from the sampleduring drying.3.1.2 prepared biomassthe biomass that has been pro-cessed according to Practice E 1757.4. Significance and Use4.1 Moisture is a ubiquitous and variable component of anybiomass sample. Moisture is not considered a structural com-ponent of

9、 biomass and can change with storage and handling ofbiomass samples. The determination of the total solids contentallows for the correction of biomass samples to an oven-driedsolids mass that is constant for a particular sample.4.2 This procedure is not suitable for biomass samples thatvisibly chang

Record the mass of the biomassplus container as the initial mass, mi1.7.5 Place the sample in the drying oven at 105 6 3C for atleast 3 h but

18、not longer than 72 h. Allow the samples to cool toroom temperature in a desiccator. Weigh each sample to thenearest 0.1 mg and record this mass. After weighing, return thesamples to the drying oven at 105C for 1 h, cool again in thedesiccator, and weigh again. Repeat this step until the mass ofthe s
