16、A requirement was modified to ensure that a waste gas burner has a pilot fuel (Natural Gas or Propane only, and not Biogas) that is reliable and is not just sparking the raw main gas. A requirement was added indicating that Manometers must always reliably indicate the system pressures, especially du

17、ring power outages, for plant personnel accessing gas rooms and for trouble shooting purposes etc.A requirement was expanded to ensure that a liquid filled manometer, which does not require external power, is only used. Incinerator Controls have been removed from the body of the code and put into An

18、nexes, which can be adopted by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), if they so wish. Controls for Ventilation and Combustion Air have been removed from the body of the code and put into Annexes, which can be adopted by the AHJ, if they so wish. Requirements for compliance with piping design code

19、s have been updated to include Canadian and American standards.Requirements for compliance underground piping have been updated to include Canadian and American standards.The previous edition required instruments to measure the composition of the landfill gas for an explosive mixture but did not spe

20、cify what to do when it occurred. The system is now required to shutdown when the methane in the landfill gas is between 2.5% and 25% by volume. Hazardous areas requirements have been updated to include Canadian and American standards. This Code was prepared by the Technical Committee on Biogas Gene

21、ration and Utilization (B149.6), under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Fuel-Burning Equipment, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee. This Code has also been formally approved by the Interprovincial Gas Advisory Council and the American National Standards

22、Institute.The CSA B149.6 Code Committee, which is responsible for preparing this Code, consists of members of the provincial gas inspection authorities, biogas and waste management entities, certification organizations, and representatives from the Canadian and US federal government . This Code has

23、been formally approved by the Technical Committee on Biogas Generation and Utilization Code, by the Interprovincial Gas Advisory Council, and American National Standards Institute.Notes: (1) Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) when the sense allows.(2) Although the inten

24、ded primary application of this Code is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the Code to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.(3) This Code was developed by consensus, which is defined by CSA Policy governing standardization Co

25、de of good practice for standardization as “substantial agreement. Consensus implies much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity”. It is consistent with this definition that a member may be included in the Technical Committee list and yet not be in full agreement with all clauses
