17、ent is determined as the loss in mass, less that due to moisture, when solid biofuel is heated out of contact with air under standardised conditions. The test is empirical and, in order to ensure reproducible results, it is essential that the rate of heating, the final temperature and the overall du

18、ration of the test are carefully controlled. It is also essential to exclude air from the solid biofuel during heating to prevent oxidation. The fit of the crucible lid is therefore critical. The moisture content of the general analysis sample is determined at the same time as the volatile matter so

19、 that the appropriate correction can be made. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 10/06/2010 01:58, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIBS EN 15148:2009EN 15148:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard aims to define the requirements and method used to determine the volatile matter content

20、 of solid biofuels. It is intended for persons and organisations that manufacture, plan, sell, erect or use machinery, equipment, tools and entire plants related to solid biofuels, and to all persons and organisations involved in producing, purchasing, selling and utilising solid biofuels. The volat

21、ile matter content is determined as the loss in mass, less that due to moisture, when solid biofuel is heated out of contact with air under standardized conditions. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references,

22、 only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

23、s Determination of moisture content Oven dry method Part 3: Moisture in general analysis sample 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in CEN/TS 14588:2003 shall apply. 4 Principle A test portion of the general analysis sample is heated out of cont

24、act with ambient air at (900 10) C for 7 min. The percentage of volatile matter is calculated from the loss in mass of the test portion after deducting the loss in mass due to moisture. Automatic equipment may be used when the method is validated with biomass reference samples of an adequate biomass

25、 type. This equipment shall fulfil all the requirements given in Clauses 5 to 8 regarding sample size, atmosphere, temperatures and weighing accuracy. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Furnace The furnace shall be heated by electricity, in which a zone of uniform temperature of (900 10) C can be maintained. It may be

26、 of the stop-ended type or fitted at the back with a flue (see Figure 1, as example). NOTE It is important for furnaces with flues that the furnace door seals well. The flue should not reach far out of the oven and should be fitted with a butterfly valve to restrict airflow through the furnace. Its

27、heat capacity shall be such that, with an initial temperature of (900 10) C, the temperature is regained within 4 min after insertion of a cold stand and its crucibles. The temperature is measured with a thermocouple, as described in 5.2. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 10/06/

28、2010 01:58, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIBS EN 15148:2009EN 15148:2009 (E) 6 Normally the furnace will be designed specifically either for multiple determinations using a number of crucibles in one stand or for receiving one crucible and its stand. The crucible stand shall be placed in the middle of th

29、e furnace. The temperature of 900 C shall be attained as closely as possible with a specified tolerance of 10 C in order to compensate for inherent errors in the temperature measurement and lack of uniformity in the temperature distribution. 5.2 Thermocouples A sheathed thermocouple shall be permane

30、ntly installed in the furnace (see Figure 1) with its thermojunction as close as possible to the centre of the heating chamber. An unsheathed thermocouple long enough to reach the centre of the heating chamber. This thermocouple is used for calibration. 5.3 Crucible The crucible shall be cylindrical

31、, with a well-fitting lid, both of fused silica. The crucible with lid shall have a mass between 10 g and 14 g and dimensions approximating to those shown in Figure 2. The fit of the lid on the crucible is critical to the determination and a lid shall be selected to match the crucible so that the ho

32、rizontal clearance between them is no greater than 0,5 mm. After selection, the crucible and the lid shall be ground together to give smooth surfaces and then be given a common distinguishing mark. 5.4 Crucible stand The crucible stand on which the crucible is placed in the furnace, shall be such th

33、at the appropriate rate of heating can be achieved. For example, it may consist of the following: a) for single determinations, a ring of heat-resistant steel wire as shown in Figure 3 a) with ceramic discs, 25 mm diameter and 2 mm thick, resting on the inner projection of its legs; or b) for multip

34、le determinations, a tray of heat-resistant steel wire as shown in Figure 3 b), of appropriate size, with ceramic plates 2 mm thick supporting the crucibles. 5.5 Balance The balance shall be capable of reading to the nearest 0,1 mg.

38、ls with an unsheathed calibrated thermocouple. The unsheathed thermocouple (see Clause 5) shall be positioned as close as possible to the area of the permanently installed thermocouple. NOTE The temperature/electromotive force relationship of a thermojunction maintained at elevated temperatures grad

39、ually changes with time. 7 Preparation of the test sample The test sample is the general analysis sample with a nominal top size of 1 mm or less, prepared in accordance with CEN/TS 14780. The general analysis sample shall be well mixed and in moisture equilibrium with the laboratory atmosphere, or o

40、ven-dry (dried by the same procedure as described in EN 14774-3). A test portion of the general analysis sample shall be separated for the determination of moisture content at the same time to the determination of volatile matter. The moisture content shall be determined according to EN 14774-3. 8 P

41、rocedure Fill either a stand with one empty crucible and lid (Figure 3a) or a stand with the requisite number of empty crucibles and lids (Figure 3b) and insert in the oven. Maintain at (900 10) C for 7 min. Remove the crucible(s) from the furnace and allow to cool to room temperature on a plate of

42、thermo-resistant material and store in desiccator. Weigh cool empty crucible(s) and lid(s) and weigh (1 0,1) g test portion of the general analysis sample into the crucible(s) to the nearest 0,1 mg. Replace the lid(s) and tap the crucible(s) on a clean hard surface until the test portion forms a lay

43、er of even thickness on the bottom of the crucible Place the charged crucible(s) in a cold stand, transfer to the furnace, close the door and leave for 7 min 5 s. Place the crucible(s) on a thermo-resistant plate and allow to cool to 30 C to 50 C above room temperature and finally to room temperatur

44、e in a dessicator. When cool, weigh the crucible(s) to the nearest 0,1 mg. NOTE 1 The same treatment of the crucible before and after the determination minimizes the effect of any film of water adsorbed on its surface, while the rapid cooling reduces absorption of moisture by the solid biofuel resid

45、ue. NOTE 2 If multiple determinations are being made, any vacant places in the stand should be filled with empty crucibles. NOTE 3 For some types of solid biofuels it may be necessary to carry out the determination on dry sample in order to avoid loss of material due to violent reactions during the

46、heating process. In this case, the charged crucibles are dried at 105 C and cooled, according to EN 14774-3, before the transfer in the furnace. 9 Calculation The volatile matter Vdin the sample, expressed as a percentage by mass on the dry basis, is given by the equation:Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, IS
