Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17225-4:2014), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— particle size distribution classification updated;
— moisture and ash content classes updated;
— Annex A updated.

Introduction
The objective of the ISO 17225 series is to provide unambiguous and clear classification principles for
solid biofuels; to serve as a tool to enable efficient trading of solid biofuels; to enable good understanding
between seller and buyer as well as a tool for communication with equipment manufacturers. It also
[2]
facilitates authority permission procedures and reporting .
This document supports the use of graded wood chips for small and medium residential, commercial
and public building applications.
Depending on the type of energy conversion technology used (boilers, heaters, gasifiers, etc., the
tolerances for a particular quality of wood chips will be different.
Scales of applications and their typical operation range:
- below 100 kW (Residential);
- from 75 to 500 kW (Small; e.g. residential, public and commercial buildings);
- from 500 kW to 1,5 MW (Medium; public and commercial buildings);
- 1,5 MW to 5 MW (Large; small industrial facilities and district heating);
1)
- over 5 MW (Industrial; recommended to use 'ISO 17225-1 or ISO/DIS 17225-9 )
The scale used for grouping the applications utilizing wood chips is for illustration only and in practice,
some overlaps between the applications and the scales are expected.
The residential, small and medium commercial and public building applications require high quality
fuel for the following reasons:
• Small-scale equipment usually does not have advanced controls and flue gas cleaning.
• Appliances are not generally managed by professional heating engineers.
• Appliances are often located in residential and populated districts.

NOTE 1 Wood chips produced according to this document can be used in boilers tested according to EN 303–5 .
NOTE 2 For individual contracts and industrial use, ISO 17225-1 or ISO/DIS 17225-9 can be used.
Although this document can be obtained separately, it requires a general understanding of the
standards based on and supporting ISO 17225-1. It is recommended to obtain and use ISO 17225-1 in
conjunction with this document.
