21、eed information on the particle size distribution in the fuel for optimising of e.g. efficiency and emission levels. The grinders used for producing fuel powder within these plants grinds the biomass pellets into the individual internal particles in the pellets. The method described in this document

22、 aims to estimate the internal particle size distribution of the material comprised in fuel pellets. For the time being, this method is based on experience of pellets made from sawdust, wood shavings and milled wood or straw as raw material. The method may also be applicable for pellets produced fro

23、m other biofuel materials.

It is intended for persons and organisations that manufacture, plan, sell, erect or use machinery, equipment, tools and enti

25、re plants related to fuel pellets, and to all persons and organisations involved in producing, purchasing, selling and utilising fuel pellets. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

29、grated in hot deionised water and dried in a drying cabinet. The determination is performed by sieving according to EN 15149-2. 5 Reagents Deionised water shall be used. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Disintegration container Water-proof container made of a material capable of withstanding a temperature of 100 C,

30、e.g. stainless steel, with a capacity of at least 3 000 ml.

31、 test portion, sufficient space for thorough stirring without loosing any sample material shall be available. A lid or a cover, e.g. aluminium folia shall be provided for the container. 6.2 Electric kettle or other suitable equipment for water heating The electric kettle shall have a capacity of hea

32、ting at least 2 000 ml of water. 6.3 Water measuring glass/glasses The measuring capacity shall be at least 2 000 ml altogether (for example, 1 000 ml + 1 000 ml). 6.4 Drying cabinet/cabinets The drying cabinets shall be capable of being controlled at a temperature within the range of 35 C to 60 C (

33、 5 C) and at 105 C ( 2 C) for moisture determination purpose. Alternatively, two cabinets, one for each temperature, can be used. The air atmosphere change shall be between 3 times and 5 times per hour. The air velocity shall be such that the sample particles are not dislodged from the drying contai

34、ner. 6.5 Drying containers The drying containers shall consist of non-corrodible and heat-resistant material e.g. metal trays or glass- or porcelain dishes. 6.6 Sample reduction equipment The sample reduction equipment as specified in EN 14780, e.g. a riffle divider shall be used. 6.7 Balance The ba

35、lance shall be capable of reading to the nearest 0,01 g. 6.8 Sieves The set of sieves described in EN 15149-2 shall be used. 6.9 Weighing containers The weighing of the sieved particle fractions can be performed either by weighing the remaining material directly on the tared weighed sieves or by col

36、lecting and weighing the material in weighing containers. For this purpose an adequate number of weighing containers are required. 6.10 Spoon The spoon shall be made of non-corrodible material, for stirring the disintegration slurry. 6.11 Mechanical sieving equipment The mechanical sieving equipment

37、 shall be made as defined by EN 15149-2. 6.12 Flat brush The flat brush is used for separating agglomerated particles after sieving.

From this sample, extract a test portion of (300 25) g by division according to EN 14780. 8 Procedure 8.1 Disintegration T

39、he (300 25) g test portion of pellets is transferred into the disintegration container. Approximately 2 000 ml of deionised water is heated to boiling point and poured over the pellets. For highly swelling pellets (e.g. straw pellets) the sample weight can be reduced and/or the water volume can be i

40、ncreased. Using a spoon, the slurry is carefully stirred from the bottom to the top until a smooth mush is obtained. The spoon is rinsed with deionised water in the container ensuring that all particles remain in the slurry. The lid is placed on the container and it is left for 24 hours. 8.2 Drying

41、The disintegrated slurry is mixed well and transferred to an adequate number of drying containers. The disintegration container shall be rinsed carefully with deionised water into the last drying container. As an alternative, the disintegration container can be dried at 35 C to 60 C, where the remai

42、ning material is then transferred to the drying container with the help of a flat brush. Dry at 35 C to 60 C depending on the raw material and the laboratory conditions in a drying cabinet until a moisture content between 5 % to 15 % is reached. Woody material shall preferably be dried at the lower

43、temperature. For material with high absorption of water e.g. straw pellets, it is recommended to dry at the higher temperature. NOTE 1 The moisture content can be checked by periodic weighing. After drying, the drying container is placed in room atmosphere in order to get equilibrium with the room a

44、tmosphere for at least 24 hours. NOTE 2 If the pellets agglutinates during drying, then gently disintegrate the crust before division. The equilibrated test portion is divided into two sub portions according to EN 14780 of approximately 150 g each and marked with sub portion “A” and “B”. 8.3 Control

45、 of the moisture content Ensure that the moisture content of the equilibrated test portion prepared for determination of the particle size distribution is within the interval of 5 % to 15 %. Determine the moisture content in sub portion “A” at 105 C ( 2 C) according to EN 14774-1 or EN 14774-2 with

46、an exception for the prescribed minimum sample size. NOTE If the moisture content is below 5 %, absorption of air moisture might occur and above 15 %, the risk of particle agglomeration increases which will influence the test result.

NOTE 1 To avoid overloading of the sieves further dividing of the test po

48、rtions may be necessary before sieving. Each portion or sub portion is sieved separately in accordance with EN 15149-2. NOTE 2 If agglomerated particles are observed on a sieve, separate these gently using e.g. a flat brush. Continue the sieving for 15 min for this sieve and the sieves below in the stack. If separation of all particles is not possible, a complete disintegration of the tested pellet sample has not been achieved and the internal particle size distribution cannot be determined according
