CEN/TS 15405:2010

Solid recovered fuels - Determination of density of pellets and briquettes

This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of particle density of irregularly shaped pieces of compressed fuels such as pellets or briquettes. It is not applicable to soft or semi-soft pellets.
NOTE 1   The term soft pellet is defined in CEN/TS 15639.
NOTE 2   Particle density is subject to variation due to the susceptibility of organic material to environmental or technical impacts such as air humidity, vibration, abrasion or biodegradation. Therefore, particle density can vary during time thus the measured values should be regarded as a momentary fuel property.
NOTE 3   At the time of preparing this document, the production of briquettes of solid recovered fuels could not be identified in the European market.

Feste Sekundärbrennstoffe - Bestimmung der Dichte von Pellets und Briketts

Diese Technische Spezifikation legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Partikeldichte von unregelmäßig
geformten Stücken gepresster Brennstoffe, wie z. B. Pellets oder Briketts, fest. Sie gilt nicht für Weichpellets
bzw. halbweiche Pellets.
ANMERKUNG 1 Der Begriff Weichpellet ist in CEN/TS 15639 definiert.
ANMERKUNG 2 Die Partikeldichte unterliegt infolge der Empfindlichkeit des organischen Materials gegenüber Umweltbeanspruchungen
und technisch bedingten Einflüssen, wie z. B. Luftfeuchte, Erschütterungen, Abrieb oder biologischem
Abbau, Veränderungen. Die Partikeldichte kann sich deshalb im Verlauf der Zeit ändern; demzufolge sollten die
Messwerte als eine momentane Brennstoffeigenschaft betrachtet werden.
ANMERKUNG 3 Zur Zeit der Erarbeitung dieses Dokuments spiegelte sich die Herstellung von Briketts aus festen
Sekundärbrennstoffen auf dem europäischen Markt nicht wider.

English Version
Solid recovered fuels - Determination of density of pellets and

Combustibles solides de récupération - Méthode de Feste Sekundärbrennstoffe - Bestimmung der Dichte von
détermination de la densité des granulés et des briquettes Pellets und Briketts
This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 12 June 2010 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)
until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
