Biogene Festbrennstoffe - Bestimmung des Wassergehaltes - Ofentrocknung - Teil 3: Wassergehalt in allgemeinen Analysenproben (ISO 18134-3:2015); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 18134-3:2015
Overview
This document has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 238 "Solid biofuels" in collaboration with Technical Committee CEN/TC 335 "Solid biofuels" the secretariat of which is held by SIS (Sweden). This document describes the method of determining the moisture in the analysis test sample by drying in an oven. It is intended to be used for general analysis samples in accordance with EN 14780 (currently still under preparation on the basis of DIN EN 14780). It is applicable to all solid biofuels. Since biofuels in small particle size are very hygroscopic, their moisture content will change with humidity in the atmosphere and therefore, the moisture of the test portion is determined simultaneously with determination of for example calorific value, carbon content, and nitrogen content. The responsible German body involved in its preparation is Working Committee NA 062-05-82 AA "Biogene Festbrennstoffe" ("Solid biofuels") at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP).
