Solid biofuels - Determination of particle size distribution - Part 3: Rotary screen method

This Technical Report specifies a method for the determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method. The method described is meant for particulate biofuels only, namely materials that either have been reduced in size, such as most wood fuels, or are physically in a particulate form e.g. olive stones, nutshells, grain, etc. This document applies to particulate uncompressed fuels with a nominal top size of 3,15 mm and over, e.g. wood chips, hog fuel, olive stones, etc.

Biocombustibles solides - Détermination de la distribution granulométrique - Partie 3 : Méthode au tamis rotatif

Le présent Rapport technique spécifie une méthode de détermination de la distribution granulométrique de biocombustibles particulaires par la méthode au tamis rotatif. La méthode décrite est conçue uniquement pour les biocombustibles particulaires, à savoir des matériaux qui, soit ont été réduits, comme la plupart des combustibles ligneux, soit se présentent physiquement sous forme de particules comme par exemple les noyaux d’olives, les coquilles de noix, les grains, etc. Le présent document s’applique aux combustibles non comprimés particulaires ayant une dimension supérieure nominale supérieure ou égale à 3,15 mm, comme par exemple les plaquettes de bois, le combustible bois broyé, les noyaux d’olives, etc.

Trdna biogoriva - Določevanje porazdelitve velikosti delcev - 3. del: Metoda z vrtečim sitom

Ta standard določa metodo za določevanje porazdelitve velikosti delcev biogoriv z metodo z vrtečim sitom. Opisana metoda je namenjena le za biogoriva iz delcev, tj. materiale, katerih velikost je bila zmanjšana (npr. večina lesnih goriv) ali so fizično v obliki delcev (npr. olivne koščice, lupine oreščkov, zrnje itd.). Ta standard se uporablja za nestisnjena goriva iz delcev z nominalno zgornjo velikostjo 3,15 mm in več, npr. lesne sekance, drobljence, olivne koščice itd.

Foreword
This document (CEN/TR 15149-3:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 335 “Solid
biofuels”, the secretariat of which is held by SIS.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes CEN/TS 15149-3:2006.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association.
EN 15149, Solid biofuels — Determination of particle size distribution, consists of the following parts:
— Part 1: Oscillating screen method using sieve apertures of 1 mm and above;
— Part 2: Vibrating screen method using sieve apertures of 3,15 mm and below;
— Part 3: Rotary screen method [Technical Report; the present document].
The most significant changes since the latest edition of this text are the following ones:
— The former edition was a Technical Specification; it was turned into the present Technical Report.
— References have been consistently updated.
Introduction
Part 1 describes the reference method for size classification of samples with a nominal top size of 3,15 mm
and over.
Part 2 describes the reference methods for all samples with a nominal top size below 3,15 mm.
Part 3 describes an innovative method, by which the degree of overestimating the fine particle fractions is
reduced. As it is currently not generally available, it is here proposed for research and development purposes
or for individual quality management processes, in which the quality requirements are bilaterally defined
between the suppliers and consumers based on this method.
NOTE The nominal top size is defined as the aperture size of the sieve where at least 95 % by mass of the material
passes (see Bibliography).
1 Scope
This Technical Report specifies a method for the determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels
by the rotary screen method. The method described is meant for particulate biofuels only, namely materials
that either have been reduced in size, such as most wood fuels, or are physically in a particulate form e.g.
olive stones, nutshells, grain, etc. This document applies to particulate uncompressed fuels with a nominal top
size of 3,15 mm and over, e.g. wood chips, hog fuel, olive stones, etc.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 16559 apply.
3.1
nominal top size
aperture size of the sieve where at least 95 % by mass of the material passes
4 Principle
A sample is subjected to sieving through sieves in a rotary sieving machine sorting the particles by increasing
size.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Rotary screen.
For the test a rotary sieving device is required for which the operating principle is shown in Figure 1. The
rotary sieving device consists of five joined cylindrical sieve rings each with an inner diameter of 500 mm
