23、HS-,-,-BS EN 15149-2:2010EN 15149-2:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the vibrating screen method. The method described is meant for particulate biofuels only, namely materials that either have been

24、reduced in size, such as most wood fuels, or are physically in a particulate form. This document applies to particulate uncompressed fuels with a nominal top size of 3,5 mm and below (e.g. sawdust). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of th

28、ose of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 14588:2010 apply. 4 Principle A sample is subjected to sieving through vibrating sieves, sorting the particles in decreasing size classes by mechanical means. NOTE A manual sieving is excluded due to the fact that small sieve holes can easi

29、ly be clogged by particles. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Sieves. For the test an appropriate number of either circular or rectangular sieves with a minimum effective sieve area of 250 cm2is required. The geometry of the apertures, the thickness of the sieves, the hole distances and the diameter of the holes shal

30、l be in accordance with the requirements of ISO 3310-1 and -2. The frame of the sieves shall have a height that enables the sieves to contain the samples and allows a free movement of the sample during the sieving process. The number of sieves and the aperture sizes of the sieves shall be chosen acc

31、ording to the size specification of the actual sample material, see also EN 14961-1. For sawdust and similar fine grade materials it is recommended to use the following set of sieves: Copyright European Committee for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with CENNot for ResaleNo reproduction

For weighing of the

33、 size classes an adequate number of collecting pans is required. 5.3 Flat brush. For cleaning the sieves a flat brush is required. 5.4 Mechanical sieving equipment.

To prevent

36、overloading of the screens the layer height on the upper sieve shall never exceed 2 cm. In such a case the test portion is divided into two or more subsamples which are to be processed subsequently, the results of the separate determinations are combined according to Clause 8. NOTE The sample should

37、 include material for determination of size distribution and moisture content. 6.2 Moisture conditions The sample shall be sieved at a moisture content below 20 w-% wet basis, thus preventing the particles from sticking together or loosing moisture during the sieving process. If necessary the sample

38、 has to be pre-dried. Drying is done according to prEN 14780. NOTE By pre-drying, as described in prEN 14780, the sample is brought into equilibrium with the humidity of the surrounding atmosphere. Determine the moisture content of the material to be sieved on a separate sub-sample following the pro

39、cedure given in EN 14774-1:2009, Clause 7 or EN 14774-2:2009, Clause 7. The moisture content shall be determined and reported concurrently with the particle size distribution determination. 7 Procedure Assemble and operate the mechanical shaking device with the appropriate sieve sizes with decreasin

40、g aperture size ending with the collecting pan. Weigh the sample to the nearest 0,01 g. If the size of the test sample is significantly larger than the minimum 50 g stated in 6.1, the test portion shall be divided into two or more sub-portions which are to be processed subsequently. Spread the sampl

41、e in an even layer on the top sieve and start the sieving operation. The sieving operation shall be continued until the mass changes between two sequential sieves do not exceed a maximum of 0,3 % of the total sample mass per 1 min time of sieving operation. This pre-testing requirement can be avoide

42、d by applying the sieving operation for the fixed duration of 30 min. NOTE 1 The required minimum sieving time should be determined for each equipment and type of fuel in separate pre tests. Avoid losing any particles when determining individual weight differences during such pre tests. NOTE 2 Be aw

43、are that an excessive sieving time, which is significantly longer than the minimum sieving time, can cause abrasion and a higher portion of the fine fraction. NOTE 3 After approximately half of the sieving operation, check if the sample is even distributed on the sieves. If not, turn each of the sie

44、ves approximately 180 and complete the sieving operation. Weigh the retained net material on each sieve and in the collecting pan to an accuracy of 0,01 g and record each net mass in a scheme equal to Table 1. In case that a particle sticks in a sieving hole, it shall be removed with the brush and a

45、dded to the fraction, which remained on the sieve (as if it did not pass the hole). NOTE 4 During the sieving operation particles can stick on the edge of the sieves due to static electricity. Since this problem mostly is connected to the intensity of the mechanical shaking operation it should be ta

46、ken into consideration in separate pre test for each equipment and biofuel sample materials. Grounding the sieves using a copper wire can reduce the problem with static electricity. NOTE 5 In size classification by sieving, some of the thin particles, which are longer than the hole diameter, will pa

47、ss the sieve and mix with the particles in the smaller size fractions.

48、esult is expressed as a percentage of the total mass of all fractions. If the test sample has been divided into two or more sub-samples the mass of the respective fractions shall be added up before calculating the overall percentage of each class.
