17、ingdom. BS EN 15407:2011EN 15407:2011 (E) 4 Introduction The determination of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen is usually performed using instrumental methods. The latter can be divided in two groups depending on the amount of test portion used. Micro instrumental methods require few mg of sample; macr

18、o methods use grams of sample. If micro methods are used for SRF analysis, a very homogeneous test sample needs to be prepared in order to obtain the required precision. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of total carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen contents in solid r

19、ecovered fuels by instrumental techniques. This method is applicable for concentrations on dry matter basis of C over 0,1 %, N over 0,01 % and H over 0,1 %. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only th

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

22、n handling of potentially hazardous materials is dealt with relevant national and European regulations, which every laboratory should refer to. In addition the following information is given: only experienced personnel, following the safety instructions of the manufacturer, shall use instruments for

23、 carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen determination. 1)To be published. BS EN 15407:2011EN 15407:2011 (E) 5 5 Principle The method is based on the complete oxidation of the sample (“flash combustion“ instruments can also be used) which converts all organic substances into combustion products. The resulting

24、 combustion gases pass through a reduction furnace and are swept into the chromatographic column by the carrier gas (helium) where they are separated and detected quantitatively by appropriate instrumental gas analysis procedures (for example by a thermal conductivity detector (TCD). The samples are

25、 held in a suitable container (tin or other crucible) and then dropped inside the quartz tube furnace at about 1 000 C in an oxygen stream for complete oxidation in the presence of a catalyst layer. Excess oxygen is removed by contact with copper, while nitrogen oxides are reduced to elemental nitro

26、gen. 6 Reagents and calibration standards All reagents shall be at least of analytical grade and suitable for their specific purposes. 6.1 Carrier gas: Helium, 99,99 % or other gases as specified by the instrument manufacturer. 6.2 Oxygen, free of combustion material, purity 99,95 %, or as specified

27、 by the instrument manufacturer. 6.3 Additional reagents: as specified by the instrument manufacturer. 6.4 Calibration standards Examples are given in Table 1.

29、 available. The general requirements for a suitable apparatus are: a) the combustion conditions shall be such that all carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen are converted to carbon dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen oxide or elemental nitrogen; b) a separation step is included to reduce or eliminate any pos

30、sible interference during the subsequent determination; BS EN 15407:2011EN 15407:2011 (E) 6 c) nitrogen shall be reduced to the elemental form before the detection; d) analytical balance, resolution of at least 1 part per thousand of the weighted amount. 8 Procedure 8.1 Sample conservation and pre-t

31、reatment The laboratory samples shall be stored according to guidelines defined in Annex A. 8.2 Sample preparation The test portion shall be prepared from the laboratory sample according to EN 15413. The amount of test portion depends on the particular instrument used. The particle size of the test

32、sample should be related to the amount of sample to be used, according to EN 15413. For some types of instruments it is necessary to carry out the determination of hydrogen on dried analysis samples. For some other types of instruments it is necessary to carry out the determination of carbon on anal

33、ysis samples that are not completely dried. Working with samples that has been dried at 105 C and then equilibrated with the moisture in the air on the lab where the CHN analysis are handled, is a good compromise for the C and H moisture artefact, but then extra moisture determinations on the air-dr

34、y sample will have to be done. The nominal top size of the test sample shall be 1 mm or less. For some instruments it may be necessary to prepare a test sample with a lower nominal top size than 1 mm, e.g. 0,25 mm, in order to keep the desired precision. For “new products” an adequate particle size

35、shall be determined by validation experiments. Whereas the determination is carried out on dry basis, the moisture content shall be determined according to EN 15414-3. 8.3 Preparation of the test portion Weigh the appropriate amount of material as recommended by the instrument manufacturer as approp

36、riate for the type of instrument and the expected content of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen. The test portion shall be weighed directly into the sample capsule in the case of a micro- or semi-micro analyser. Otherwise it may be weighed directly or transferred from a suitable weighing container. 8.4 C

37、alibration Set up the instrument following the manufacturer instructions. Stabilize the furnace and analyzer. Select 3 to 5 reference materials with increasing concentration of nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon. Calibrate the instruments for nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon determination following the manu

38、facturer instructions. Use the same procedure as for sample analysis (see below). Alternatively different amounts of the same substance may be used to prepare the calibration. Verify the calibration by analysing as a test sample a portion of a suitable standard, preferably with a different material

39、than that used for the calibration. The calibration is acceptable if the measured value differs from the standard value by no more than the repeatability limit for the test method. Otherwise repeat the calibration procedure. BS EN 15407:2011EN 15407:2011 (E) 7 8.5 Analysis of samples Weight the test

40、 portion and transfer it into the instrumental apparatus. Start the cycle following then operating instruction for the specific instruments. At least 3 replicates are necessary. 9 Expression of results The total carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen contents of the solid recovered fuels shall be expressed a

41、s a percentage by mass on the dry basis. Most commercially available instruments give the results directly. The following equations shall be used: for the carbon content: adaddMCC=100100(1) for the nitrogen content: adaddMNN=100100(2) for the hydrogen content: adadaddMMHH=100100937,8(3) where dis dr

43、isation, Validation of standards, Developments and Inquiries for SRF) 9. 11 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: a) name, address and location of any laboratory involved in the analysis; b) description and identification of the laboratory sample; BS EN 15407:

45、etails not specified in this European Standard or which are optional, and any other factors which may have affected the results; h) unique identification of report (such as serial number) and of each page and total number of pages of the report. The laboratory should keep a trace of any analytical s

46、teps and intermediate results (chromatograms, raw data and calculation details) that should be kept available in case of specific requirements (e.g. accreditation).

47、SRF The following requirements apply when preparing the laboratory sample for the chemical characterisation of SRF samples according to this European Standard. NOTE Equivalent requirements apply in all chemical test method specifications for SRF, i.e. this European Standard, EN 15408, EN 15410, EN 1

48、5411, CEN/TS 15412 and EN 15413. A maximum amount of laboratory sample of 10 kg and maximum particle size of 1 cm is established on the basis of number and type of parameters to be determined, sample representativeness and practical reasons for handling samples. In the Table A.1 the requirements are
