18、on This document is dedicated to outlining a manual method for characterizing the size of pieces of solid recovered fuel (SRF) that exhibit an irregular shape and are generally large in size. Typical examples are shredded, end-of-life tyres and demolition woods. When such products reach the end-of-l

19、ife stage, they continue to exhibit the very strong mechanical properties for which they were designed and fabricated. For instance, tyres are designed and fabricated to withstand cutting. Therefore, it is wise to minimise shredding when producing SRF from these end-of-life productsThis results in a

20、 general production of SRF pieces exhibiting an irregular shape and large size. These SRF pieces cannot be characterised using the sieving method specified in EN 15415-1 which utilises well-known distribution curves and a series of test sieves. Consequently, the method specified in this document is

21、a manual method based on the determination of the maximum projected length and accompanied by an appropriate statistical evaluation. This maximum projected length approach is needed for the sake of testing; but it is mainly needed to facilitate the use of these solid recovered fuels. Safe transporta

22、tion (e.g. with a conveyer) and introduction into the combustion zone are dependent on the design and operations adapted to such maximum length. In this document, the maximum projected length is determined without considering the filaments protruding from the SRF pieces (see 3.1). In EN 15415-3, an

23、image analysis method is specified which allows the characterisation of these filaments protruding from shredded tyre pieces. This document is based on CEN/TS 14243, AFNOR XP T47-751 and AFNOR XP T47-756. BS EN 15415-2:2012EN 15415-2:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the determinat

24、ion of particle size distribution of solid recovered fuels. It establishes a manual method for the determination of the maximum projected length for large dimension particles. It applies to both agglomerated and non-agglomerated solid recovered fuel pieces exhibiting an irregular shape, such as shre

25、dded end-of-life tyres and demolition woods. This document does not apply to filaments protruding from the SRF pieces. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

32、le of sampling is to obtain a representative sample or representative samples from a whole lot (of defined material) from which a characteristic is to be determined. If the lot is to be represented by a sample, then it is necessary that every particle in the lot have an equal probability of being in

33、cluded in the sample (i.e. probabilistic sampling). Whenever this principle cannot be applied in practice, the sampler shall define a procedure as close as possible to probabilistic sampling in their judgement (i.e. judgemental sampling) and note the limitations in the sampling plan and sampling rep

34、ort. In general, it is difficult to take samples in a way that satisfies the principle of correct sampling if a material is stationary (for example in a stockpile, big bag or silo). With regard to large pieces of irregular shape (e.g. pieces that include protruding filaments), it is necessary to tak

35、e samples if the material is in movement. NOTE The determination of properties other than dimensions can result in different sampling requirements. This is the case when determining physical properties such as bulk density or chemical composition. BS EN 15415-2:2012EN 15415-2:2012 (E) 7 5.2 Principl

36、e of the determination of dimension A laboratory sample of at least TNP 100 separate elements not passing through the LDF sieve is taken for the test. The mass of the laboratory sample, MS, is weighed to within 0,01 kg. Any elements consisting solely of metal wires released from the pieces of solid

37、recovered fuel are not counted in the TNP pieces. They are collected and weighed together (MLM in kilograms). After passing through a LDF sieve, the mass of the fine pieces, MF, is weighed to within 0,01 kg. The pieces not passing through the sieve (without loose metal wires) are used to determine t

38、he maximum lengths and constitute the test portion for determination purposes. Each piece of this test portion is treated individually. As these pieces are not usually flat, the largest length is defined as the largest length projected onto a plane on which the piece in question lies. This length is

39、 measured to within 5 mm without deforming the piece and excluding protruding filaments. The measurements of the different maximum projected lengths, L, are used for drawing a histogram (see Figure 1) that is a characteristic of the distribution of the pieces of the test portion, i.e. the laboratory

40、 sample without the fine pieces and without the loose metal wires. This histogram consists of the large pieces (a class larger than the HDF threshold dimension of the large pieces) and NCR = 7 classes of the same width between the LDF and HDF dimensions. Figure 1 Example of a histogram The following

41、 three characteristics of the histogram are extracted from these measurements: a) the number percentage of large pieces, NPL (and optionally, the mass percentage of large pieces, MPL, corresponding to the pieces larger than the higher dimension of the HDF format where HDF is one of the characteristi

42、cs of the format of the product under consideration, e.g. 350 mm); b) the mass percentage of the fine pieces, MPF = 100 MF/MS (mass percentage of the pieces passing through the sieve with a mesh of LDF where LDF is one of the characteristics of the product format under consideration, e.g. 25 mm); c)

43、 the number percentage, NPC (and optionally the mass percentage, MPC) of the pieces in the number of central classes (NCC) (2-3-4-5-6) amongst the classes NCR = 7 between the lower and higher dimensions of the format (LDF and HDF).

45、7 Procedure 7.1 Preparation of the sampling plan First, the property required in the testing programme and the lot in relation to which it is defined, e.g. “maximum projected length on a SRF production of 300 Mg“, shall be identified. The lot size shall be based on management decisions about the pro

46、duction quality or specific customer requirements. It may be defined by the producer as a fixed quantity produced between machine settings, a fixed quantity of a production day/shift/week or simply a fixed quantity. With regard to certain pieces exhibiting large dimensions, the tools for taking an i

47、ncrement shall be sufficiently large so that the large pieces are equally sampled. Typically this results in a case of increments of more than 100 pieces (3 kg to 15 kg). NOTE 1 Larger increments would slightly improve the sampling quality while increasing the size of the field sample, therefore com

48、plicating the size reduction into laboratory sample(s). It is preferable to increase the number of increments and thus directly increase the reproducibility. For reference testing (contractual or pre-contractual) concerning SRF dimension(s), the field sample shall be a composite sample constituted o

49、f 3 increments taken on dates selected randomly along the period of time during which the lot is produced. If there is no SRF on a particular date at the sampling location, the increment shall be taken on another date preselected prior to sampling, unless this is caused by a major change in the production process (see below). For routine testing concerning the dimension(s) of SRF, the field sample shall consist of 1 increment taken on a date selected randomly along the period o
