BS EN 16575:2014EN 16575:2014 (E) 4 Introduction Bio-based products from forestry and agriculture have a long history of application, such as paper, board and variou

15、s chemicals and materials. The last decades have seen the emergence of new bio-based products in the market. Some of the reasons for the increased interest lie in the bio-based products benefits in relation to the depletion of fossil resources and climate change. Bio-based products may also provide

16、additional product functionalities. This has triggered a wave of innovation with the development of knowledge and technologies allowing new transformation processes and product development. Acknowledging the need for common standards for bio-based products, the European Commission issued mandate M/4

17、921), resulting in a series of standards developed by CEN/TC 411, with a focus on bio-based products other than food, feed and biomass for energy applications. The standards of CEN/TC 411 “Bio-based products“ provide a common basis on the following aspects: Common terminology; Bio-based content dete

18、rmination; Life Cycle Assessment (LCA); Sustainability aspects; Declaration tools. It is important to understand what the term bio-based product covers and how it is being used. The term “bio-based“ means “derived from biomass“. Bio-based products (bottles, insulation materials, wood and wood produc

19、ts, paper, solvents, chemical intermediates, composite materials, etc.) are products which are wholly or partly derived from biomass. It is essential to characterize the amount of biomass contained in the product by for instance its bio-based content or bio-based carbon content. The bio-based conten

20、t of a product does not provide information on its environmental impact or sustainability, which may be assessed through LCA and sustainability criteria. In addition, transparent and unambiguous communication within bio-based value chains is facilitated by a harmonized framework for certification an

21、d declaration. This European Standard has been developed with the aim to cover the horizontal definitions for bio-based products. Hence, other terms and definitions are given in the other standards developed by CEN/TC 411 “Bio-based products“. For food, feed and energy applications other definitions

22、 may exist in other product specific standards. 1)A Mandate is a standardization task embedded in European trade laws. M/492 Mandate is addressed to the European Standardization bodies, CEN, CENELEC and ETSI, for the development of horizontal European Standards for bio-based products. BS EN 16575:20

23、14EN 16575:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines general terms to be used in the field of bio-based products, including horizontal aspects relevant for bio-based product standards. NOTE Though the terms in this standard are horizontally applicable to bio-based products, this standard foc

24、uses on areas other than food, feed and energy applications, where terms may be defined in existing specific standards. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 bio-based derived from biomass Note 1 to entry: Biomass can have undergone

25、 physical, chemical or biological treatment(s). Note 2 to entry: The correct spelling of “bio-based“ is with a hyphen (-). It is however in common usage sometimes spelt without a hyphen. Note 3 to entry: The methods to determine and communicate “bio-based“ as a characteristic are detailed in specifi

26、c standards of CEN/TC 411. 2.2 bio-based carbon biogenic carbon carbon derived from biomass Note 1 to entry: Biogenic carbon is defined in ISO/TS 14067:2013 14, by the same definition. 2.3 bio-based carbon content fraction of carbon derived from biomass in a product Note 1 to entry: There are severa

27、l approaches to express the bio-based carbon content. These include as a percentage of: the mass; the total carbon content, or the total organic carbon content of the sample. These are detailed in the relevant standards of CEN/TC 411. 2.4 bio-based content fraction of a product that is derived from

28、biomass Note 1 to entry: Normally expressed as a percentage of the total mass of the product. Note 2 to entry: For the methodology to determine the bio-based content, see FprCEN/TR 16721. 2.5 bio-based product product wholly or partly derived from biomass Note 1 to entry: The bio-based product is no

29、rmally characterised by the bio-based carbon content or the bio-based content. For the determination and declaration of the bio-based content and the bio-based carbon content, see the relevant standards of CEN/TC 411. BS EN 16575:2014EN 16575:2014 (E) 6 Note 2 to entry: Product can be an intermediat

30、e, material, semifinished or final product. Note 3 to entry: “bio-based product“ is often used to refer to a product which is partly bio-based. In those cases the claim should be accompanied by a quantification of the bio-based content. 2.6 biodegradation degradation caused by biological activity, e

42、-based product” (2.5) establishes a direct link between the biomass (2.7) and the product (2.14). In reality, intermediate step(s) are necessary to obtain a “bio-based product” from the “biomass”. After harvesting or collecting, the biomass can be used as raw material in various processes and produc

43、ts. Biomass can be processed physically, mechanically, chemically or biologically, resulting in bio-based materials or substances, which may be processed with or without materials or substances of other origins (e.g. fossil, mineral) resulting in bio-based products (i.e. wholly or partly derived fro

44、m biomass). During the production of bio-based products, the biomass can undergo different degrees of transformation, resulting in more or less complex bio-based products, such as: - materials resulting from simple physical or mechanical processes, such as sawn timber, hemp fibres used as insulation

45、 product; - materials resulting from fractionation and/or extraction, such as cellulose pulp, starch, vegetable oils; - intermediates from chemical, physical, biological processes such as ethanol used for biofuels, chemical building blocks, monomers; - semi-finished products or finished products, su

46、ch as bio-lubricants, biosurfactants, biosolvents, biocomposites, biochemicals, biopolymers. More information is given in documents as listed in CEN/TR 15932:2010 12 and CEN/TR 16227:201113. A.2 “Bio“ and “bio-based“ The prefix “bio“ frequently appears in everyday language in terms such as “bioprodu

47、ct“ (where “product“ can be substituted by e.g. lubricant), mainly as marketing tools. Detergents and plastic products are other examples of the widespread use of the “bio” prefix. Without reference to clear and agreed definitions, there are many unsubstantiated claims, which can be deceptive. The t

48、erm “biomass-based” or “bio-based“ refers to the origin of the raw material. The prefix “bio“ can refer to different functionalities (biodegradable, biocompatible, etc.) or processing (biological or biotechnological processes). To ensure transparent and non-misleading information to consumers, the p

49、refix “bio“ should be substituted by more accurate and more informative equivalents and should refer to a European or International Standard.
