2、forewordThis British Standard is the UK implementation of EN 16087-2:2011.BSI, as a member of CEN, is obliged to publish EN 16087-2 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the development of this European Standard, the UK committee voted against its approval as a E

3、uropean Standard.The UK committee voted against the publication of this standard because there is no control to measure the differential compared with the ambient temperature. The committee also considered that both of the samples of composted material used in the inter-laboratory evaluation were so

4、 stable that neither generated enough heat to raise the temperature sufficiently above the ambient temperature under which the test was conducted. The measurements were conducted at 22 2 C and the mean max-imum temperatures of the two samples were 22.26 C and 25.30 C respectively. The purpose of the

5、 self-heating test is to assess the degree of stability of the composted material but because stable material was used for the validation there is no information about the precision of this method. Stability is a very important parameter when selecting composted material to use as a growing medium c

6、onstituent. Until the method has been validated with immature composts, the precision of the method is undefined. The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee AW/20, Top soil and other growing media.A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained

BS EN 16087-2:2011EN 16087-2:2011 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard describes a method to determine the aerobic biological activity

21、using a self-heating test. This method is only applicable to composted material. 2 Principle Measurement of self-heating in a Dewar vessel and measurement of the maximum temperature, where the temperature is an indicator of the state of aerobic biological activity. 3 Apparatus 3.1 Dewar vessel Volum

22、e 1,5 l, internal diameter (100 3) mm. 3.2 Temperature measurement device Capable of recording a maximum temperature. 3.3 Sieve 10 mm mesh size. 3.4 Temperature controlled room or climate cabinet 4 Procedure 4.1 General The self-heating test shall be carried out as soon as possible after sampling. I

23、f a delay to the start of testing cannot be avoided, cool storage (5 3) C for up to three days) of the samples is then necessary. Ensure that the temperature of the sample material corresponds to a temperature of (22 2) C at the beginning of the test. Record the ambient temperature during the trial

24、to ensure that the required temperature is maintained. 4.2 Sample preparation 4.2.1 General The fresh test sample is sieved 10 mm (see 3.3). If more than 30 % of the material is retained on the sieve, the method is not appropriate. The moisture content is adjusted according to the results of a fist

25、test (see 4.2.2). 4.2.2 Fist test The fist test shall be carried out wearing protective gloves. BS EN 16087-2:2011EN 16087-2:2011 (E) 5 The material to be tested shall be adjusted to a moisture content that is optimal for microbial processes prior to testing. The compost sample is pressed in the fis

26、t. If water beads escape between the fingers, the sample is too wet. If the sample crumbles in the hand when the fist is opened, without further action, the sample is too dry. Suitable moisture content is present if the pressed sample forms an aggregate which crumbles under mild pressure, after the

27、fist has been opened; if, on the contrary, it only deforms, it is too wet. The optimal moisture content is that which may be described as “moist as a well-squeezed sponge“. When moistening excessively dry sample material the water shall be mixed into the sample material in such a manner that it is e

28、venly absorbed. In the case of very dry samples, this process requires thorough mixing at intervals. This procedure shall last no more than 8 h. Excessively moist samples shall be carefully air-dried ( 30 C) and thoroughly mixed thereafter. The maximum time from sampling to the start of the test sha

29、ll not exceed five days. 4.3 Determination of self-heating After optimisation of the moisture content, the Dewar vessels (see 3.1) are filled up to the rim with loosely poured compost, tapping the test containers on a base, and the sensor of the temperature measurement device (see 3.2) is placed app

30、roximately 3 cm above the inside bottom of the vessel. The vessels shall be set up without covering (see Figure 1). The room temperature shall be maintained at (22 2) C for the entire duration. As a rule the temperature maximum (Tmax) in the sample is reached after two to five days. NOTE If a high p

31、recision for the monitoring of the temperature rise is required (for example for materials low in biological activity like “mature“ composts), the test should be carried out under temperature controlled conditions.

The measurement shall be performed in duplicate. 5 Expression of results The result Tmaxis expressed as the mean from

33、 both measurements in C with an accuracy of one decimal place. 6 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following: a) a reference to this standard; b) all data required for a complete identification of the sample; c) the maximum temperature in C, rounded to one decimal place; d) if r

34、equired, the temperature profile of the sample during analysis; e) details of all work cycles not contained in this standard or that were considered optional, as well as all factors that may have influenced the results.
