16、10 (E) 3 Foreword This document (CEN/TS 15405:2010) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 343 “Solid recovered fuels”, the secretariat of which is held by SFS. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or C

17、ENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes CEN/TS 15405:2006. CEN/TS 15405:2006 is not be converted into a European Standard as the test method specified in this document was not validated (see 1, 2). This document differs from CEN/TS

18、 15405:2006 mainly as follows: a) number of replicate tests changed to two replications; b) whole document editorially revised. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austr

20、D CEN/TS 15405:2010CEN/TS 15405:2010 (E) 4 Introduction This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of particle density where the required volume is measured by the buoyancy in a liquid. The parameter particle density is not an absolute value, therefore conditions for its d

21、etermination should be standardised in order to gain comparative measuring results. Practical experience shows that for briquettes, the method specified is also replaceable by a similar measurement applying a gravimetrical determination of the volume via the displaced liquid. In this case, the conta

22、iner with the liquid is not positioned underneath the balance as specified in this Technical Specification but is placed onto the balance which would then have to carry a higher total mass (at the same accuracy requirements). For all other requirements (e.g. for the wetting agent), the procedure as

23、outlined in this Technical Specification should be followed, except, that the Equation for density calculation shall be modified accordingly. This Technical Specification is based on CEN/TS 15150. DD CEN/TS 15405:2010CEN/TS 15405:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies a method for

24、 the determination of particle density of irregularly shaped pieces of compressed fuels such as pellets or briquettes. It is not applicable to soft or semi-soft pellets. NOTE 1 The term soft pellet is defined in CEN/TS 15639. NOTE 2 Particle density is subject to variation due to the susceptibility

25、of organic material to environmental or technical impacts such as air humidity, vibration, abrasion or biodegradation. Therefore, particle density can vary during time thus the measured values should be regarded as a momentary fuel property. NOTE 3 At the time of preparing this document, the product

26、ion of briquettes of solid recovered fuels could not be identified in the European market. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this Technical Specification.

30、ined. The volume is measured by determining the buoyancy in a liquid. This procedure follows the physical principle that the buoyancy of a body is equal to the mass of the displaced volume of a liquid. The apparent loss in mass between a measurement in air and a subsequent measurement in liquid mark

31、s its buoyancy. The volume of the sample body is calculated via the density of the applied liquid.

32、tent in accordance with CEN/TS 15414-2. 5.2 Apparatus for pellet testing 5.2.1 Balance, readable to 0,001 g. Due to the high sensitivity of the balance, the test rig shall be placed into a wind protection cabinet to allow undisturbed and immediate reading of the displayed values. 5.2.2 Beaker glass,

33、 transparent, with a filling volume of about 200 ml. 5.2.3 Thermometer for liquids, with an accuracy of 1 C. 5.2.4 Rig for the determination of density, capable of being placed on the balance. The rig shall be consisted of a bridge which overstretches the weighing plate of the balance in order to pr

34、event the balance from being loaded. The bridge shall be capable of carrying the beaker glass (5.2.2). Through a supporting frame with suspension rods, a weighing dish (submergence dish“) shall be hung into the beaker glass (see Figure 1) which is filled with liquid. The dish shall be able to accomm

35、odate four pellets at once. Both the supporting frame and the submergence dish shall be directly loaded on the balance plate. The submergence apparatus (the dish and the suspension) shall be able to be removed for being loaded with pellets. The submergence depth shall always be kept constant through

36、 the dish suspension. The bottom of the submergence dish shall be perforated by openings which are smaller in diameter than the diameter of the pellets. This perforation allows the liquid to fill the dish from underneath if it is submerged. If sample material of low density shall be applied ( 1,0 g/

37、cm3), a modified suspension with an inverted submergence dish is required; this is to prevent pellets from floating atop of the liquid. For the determination of the mass in air, it is advantageous to use a combined test rig where an additional upper weighing dish is fixed (see Figure 1). Key 1 weigh

The balance shall have a connecting point for hanging a weight to its load cell. 5.3.2 Container, transparent, for liquids, with a su

40、fficient filling volume to accommodate the liquid and the submerged briquette. NOTE A sufficient filling volume is usually achieved when the cross section of the container is about eight times larger than the cross section of the briquette. In this case, any effects by level changes of the liquid ca

41、used by submersion of the briquette are negligible. Such deviation would arise due to a larger part of the holding steel string being submerged. 5.3.3 Thin steel string, non absorbent, able to be hung to the connecting point of the balance; the end of the string is equipped with a hook or a ring all

42、owing an easy appending of the sample. 5.3.4 Tripod, for placing the balance on, having a plate with an opening allowing the string to pass through unhindered while hanging to the balance (see Figure 2).

45、 15443, CEN/TS 15414-1 and CEN/TS 15414-2. The sample size shall be at least 500 g for pellets and 15 pieces for briquettes, respectively. A sub-sample of minimum 40 pellets or 10 briquettes shall be selected from the fuel and stored at room temperature before measuring. 7 Procedure 7.1 Procedure fo

46、r pellets This procedure shall be used up to a pellet diameter of 25 mm in accordance with CEN/TS 15359. The following steps shall be carried out: a) fill the beaker glass (5.2.2) with water to a filling level which ensures that full submersion of all pellets on the submergence dish is achievable; b

47、) add a volume fraction of 2 % of liquid soap to the water in the beaker glass (5.2.2) and stir until full homogeneity of the liquid is achieved. Position the beaker glass with the liquid onto the bridge of the rig (5.2.4); c) determine the temperature of the liquid using the thermometer (5.1.1). Wa

48、it until the liquid reaches constant room temperature and record the measurement to the nearest 1 C; d) determine the total mass of a group of four pellets in air and record the measurement to the nearest 0,001 g; e) position the empty submergence apparatus onto the designated bracket of the support

49、ing frame. The submergence apparatus shall not touch the bottom of the beaker glass (5.2.2); f) tare the balance to zero while the empty submergence dish is below liquid surface at maximum depth; g) remove the submergence apparatus and place the same four pellets as measured as specified in d) onto the submergence dish and carefully place it back onto the designated bracket of the supporting frame; h) while the group of pellets is submerged in the liquid, read the total mass from the balance and re
