1、Designation: E871 82 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forMoisture Analysis of Particulate Wood Fuels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E871; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last re

2、vision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of totalweight basis moisture in the analysis sample of particulatewood fuel. The p

3、articulate wood fuel may be sanderdust,sawdust, pellets, green tree chips, hogged fuel, or other typeparticulate wood fuel having a maximum particle volume of16.39 cm3(1 in.3). It is used for calculating other analyticalresults to a dry basis. Moisture, when determined as hereindescribed, may be use

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.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.

Summary of Test Method3.1 Moisture is determined by establishing the loss inweight of the sample when heated under rigidly controlledconditions of temperature, time and atmosphere, samp

7、leweight, and equipment specifications.4. Significance and Use4.1 The test procedures described in this test method can beused to determine the total weight basis moisture of anyparticulate wood fuel meeting the requirements specified in thistest method.5. Apparatus5.1 Drying OvenFor determining the

8、 moisture of wood,an ordinary drying oven with openings for natural air circula-tion and capable of temperature regulation of 103 6 1C shallbe used.5.2 Open Containers, nonporous glass, metal, or ceramicand of a configuration so as to accommodate the test sample.The minimum volume shall be 32.18 cm3

9、(2 in.3).5.3 Desiccator, of sufficient size to contain the open con-tainer.6. Procedure6.1 Sampling:6.1.1 Place of SamplingTake the sample where the woodis being loaded into or unloaded from means of transportationor when discharged from storage bins or conveyors.NOTE 1Samples collected from the sur

10、face of piles are, in general,unreliable because of the exposure to the environment. If necessary,collect nine increments from a foot or more below the surface at ninepoints covering the pile.6.1.2 Collection of Gross Sample:6.1.2.1 Collect increments regularly, systematically, andwith such frequenc

11、y that the entire quantity of wood sampledwill be represented proportionally in the gross sample.6.1.2.2 The quantity of the sample shall be large enough tobe representative but not less than 10 kg (22 lb).6.1.2.3 Place the samples in an airtight container immedi-ately after collection. Maintain the

12、 samples in the airtightcontainer whenever possible to prevent gains or losses inmoisture from the atmosphere.6.1.3 Sample reduction may be done by two methods, aconing and dividing process, or by using a riffle. The opera-tions of mixing, coning, and quartering are described inPractice D346.6.1.3.1

13、 Accomplish coning and dividing reduction by plac-ing the gross sample on a sheet of rubber or oil cloth.Thoroughly mix it by raising first one corner of the cloth and1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E48 onBioenergy and Industrial Chemicals from Biomass and is the direct

This shall constitute alaboratory sample.6.1.3.2 Accomplish riffle reduction using a standard coalriffle. Riffle the gross sample repeatedly until

17、 one half of theriffle sample equals about 50 g (0.11 lb), which will constitutea laboratory sample. Riffles and procedures are described inPractice D2013.6.2 Dry sample container for 30 min at 103 6 1C in theoven, then cool in desiccator to room temperature. Weigh to thenearest 0.02 g and record as

18、 container weight, Wc. Place aminimum of 50 g of sample in the container, weigh the sampleand container to the nearest 0.01 g, and record as initial weight,Wi.6.3 Place the sample and container in the oven for 16 h at103 6 1C.6.4 Remove the sample and the container from the oven andcool in the desic

19、cator to room temperature. Remove the sampleand container from the desiccator, weigh immediately to thenearest 0.01 g, and record the weight.6.5 Return the sample and container to the oven at 103 61C for 2 h. Repeat 6.4.6.6 Continue 6.4 until the total weight change betweenweighings varies less than

20、 0.2 % and record as the final weight,Wf.7. Calculation7.1 Calculate the percent moisture in the analysis sample asfollows:Moisture in analysis sample, %5Wi2 Wf!/Wi2 Wc!# 3100 (1)where:Wc= container weight, g,Wi= initial weight, g, andWf= final weight, g.8. Precision and Bias8.1 The following criter

21、ia should be used for judging theacceptability of results:8.1.1 RepeatabilityDuplicate results by the same labora-tory should not be considered suspect unless they differ bymore than 0.5 %.8.1.2 ReproducibilityThe results submitted by two ormore laboratories should not be considered suspect unless t

22、heydiffer by more than 1 %.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item mentionedin this standard.
