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 aims to define the requirements and method used for testing the mechanical durability of pellets. It is intended for persons and organisations that manufacture, plan, sell, erect or use machinery, equipment, tools and entire plants related to such pellets, and to all persons and organisations involved in producing, purchasing, selling and utilising pellets. The durability is the measure of the resistance of compressed fuels towards shocks and/or abrasion as a consequence of handling and transportation processes. The responsible German body is Working Committee NA 062-05-82 AA "Biogenic Festbrennstoffe" ("Solid biofuels") at Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP) at DIN.
