Solid recovered fuels - Determination of particle size distribution - Part 3: Method by image analysis for large dimension particles

This European Standard specifies the determination of particle size distribution of solid recovered fuels using an image analysis method. It applies to both agglomerated and non-agglomerated solid, recovered, fuel pieces exhibiting an irregular shape, such as shredded end-of-life tyres and demolition woods. It provides the determination of the maximum projected length as well as parameters such as equivalent diameter. It also gives a characterisation of the filaments protruding from the SRF pieces.

Feste Sekundärbrennstoffe - Bestimmung der Partikelgrößenverteilung - Teil 3: Bildanalysenverfahren für große Partikel

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Bestimmung der Größenverteilung von festen Sekundärbrennstoffen mit einem Bildanalysenverfahren fest. Sie gilt sowohl für Stücke von agglomerierten als auch nicht agglomerierten festen Sekundärbrennstoffen, die eine unregelmäßige Form aufweisen, wie z. B. geschredderte Altreifen und Abbruchholz. Es ist anwendbar für die Bestimmung der größten projizierten Länge sowie von Parametern, wie z. B. des Äquivalentdurchmessers. Weiterhin ist es zur Charakterisierung der Drähte, die aus den SRF-Stücken herausstehen, anwendbar.

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. EN 15415, Solid recovered fuels — Determination of particle size distribution, consists of the following parts:  Part 1: Screen method for small dimension particles  Part 2: Maximum projected length method (manual) for large dimension particles  Part 3: Method by image analysis for large dimension particles According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: 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, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
When such products reach the end-of-life stage, they continue to exhibit the very strong mechanical properties for which they were designed and fabricated. For instance, tyres are designed and fabricated to withstand cutting. Therefore, it is wise to minimise shredding when producing SRF from these end-of-life products. This results in a general in production of SRF pieces exhibiting an irregular shape and large size.
These SRF cannot be characterised using the sieving method specified in EN 15415-1 which utilises well-known distribution curves and a series of test sieves. Consequently, the method specified in this document is an optical method based on the determination of the maximum projected length and accompanied by an appropriate statistical evaluation. This maximum projected length approach is needed for sake of testing; but it is mainly needed to facilitate the use of these solid recovered fuels. Safe transportation (e.g. with conveyer) and introduction into the combustion zone are dependent on the design and operations adapted to such maximum length. In this document, the maximum projected length determination is complemented with a characterisation of the filaments protruding from the SRF pieces (see 3.1). This document is based on CEN/TS 14243, AFNOR XP T47-753, AFNOR XP T47-756, AFNOR XP T47-757, AFNOR NF X11-696:1989 and ISO 13320.
1 Scope This European Standard specifies the determination of particle size distribution of solid recovered fuels using an image analysis method. It applies to both agglomerated and non-agglomerated solid, recovered, fuel pieces exhibiting an irregular shape, such as shredded end-of-life tyres and demolition woods. It provides the determination of the maximum projected length as well as parameters such as equivalent diameter. It also gives a characterisation of the filaments protruding from the SRF pieces. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

5.1 Principle of sampling The main principle of sampling is to obtain a representative sample or representative samples from a whole lot (of defined material) from which a characteristic is to be determined. If the lot is to be represented by a sample, then it is necessary that every particle in the lot have an equal probability of being included in the sample (i.e. probabilistic sampling). Whenever this principle cannot be applied in practice, the sampler shall define a procedure as close as possible to probabilistic sampling in their judgement (i.e. judgemental sampling) and note the limitations in the sampling plan and sampling report. In general, it is difficult to take samples in a way that satisfies the principle of correct sampling when a material is stationary (for example in a stockpile, big bag or silo). With regard to large pieces of irregular shape (e.g. pieces that include protruding filaments), it is necessary to take samples if the material is in movement. SIST EN 15415-3:2012

The measurements of the different maximum projected lengths, L, are used for drawing a histogram (see Figure 1) that is a characteristic of the distribution of the pieces of the test portion, i.e. the laboratory sample without the fine pieces and without the loose metal wires. This histogram consists of the large pieces (a class larger than the HDF threshold dimension of the large pieces) and NCR = 7 classes of the same width between the LDF and HDF dimensions.
Figure 1 — Example of a histogram The following three characteristics of the histogram are extracted from these measurements:
a) the number percentage of large pieces, NPL (and optionally, the mass percentage of large pieces, MPL, corresponding to the pieces larger than the higher dimension of the HDF format where HDF is one of the characteristics of the format of the product under consideration, e.g. 350 mm); b) the mass percentage of the fine pieces, MPF = 100 × MF/MS (mass percentage of the pieces passing through the sieve with a mesh of LDF wher
