DIN EN 15440:2011-05 EN 15440:2011 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard specifies the methods for the determination of biomass content in solid recovered fuels.
25、 This European Standard specifies three normative methods that are: the method of selective dissolution, the manual sorting method and the method based on the 14C content. The method of selective dissolution is based on the reaction of biomass material with a mixture of sulphuric acid and hydrogen p
26、eroxide. The manual sorting method is based on the separation of different fractions by visual inspection. The determination of the biomass content using the 14C method is based on the well established analytical procedures that are used for the determination of the age of carbon containing objects.
27、 With this European Standard the fraction of biomass is expressed: by weight; by energy content (gross or net calorific value); by carbon content. This European Standard is primarily geared toward laboratories, producers, suppliers and purchasers of solid recovered fuels, but is also useful for the
28、authorities and inspection organizations. DIN EN 15440:2011-05 EN 15440:2011 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies three normative methods for the determination of the biomass fraction in solid recovered fuel, and when to use each method. The methods are the selective dissolution in a hydro
29、gen peroxide/sulphuric acid mixture, the manual sorting method and the method based on the 14C content. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
