Solid recovered fuels - Specifications and classes (ISO 21640:2021)

This document specifies a classification system for solid recovered fuels (SRF), and a template containing a list of characteristics for the specification of their properties, enabling trade and use of SRF supporting the protection of the environment.
SRF are produced from non-hazardous waste.
NOTE 1    Untreated municipal solid waste as such cannot be considered SRF. Untreated municipal solid waste can however be feedstock to plants producing SRF.
NOTE 2    Chemically treated solid biofuels that do not contain halogenated organic compounds or heavy metals at levels higher than those in typical virgin material, can be defined as solid biofuels and thus be part of the standard series ISO 17225[1].

Feste Sekundärbrennstoffe - Spezifikationen und Klassen (ISO 21640:2021)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Klassifizierungssystem für feste Sekundärbrennstoffe (SRF) und ein Formular fest, das eine Liste mit Kenngrößen für die Spezifikation ihrer Eigenschaften enthält, die den Handel und die Verwendung von SRF zum Schutz der Umwelt ermöglichen.
SRF werden aus nicht gefährlichen Abfällen hergestellt.
ANMERKUNG 1   Unbehandelter fester Siedlungsabfall als solcher kann nicht als SRF betrachtet werden. Unbehandelter fester Siedlungsabfall kann jedoch als Ausgangsmaterial für Anlagen dienen, die SRF herstellen.
ANMERKUNG 2   Chemisch behandelte biogene Festbrennstoffe, die keine halogenorganischen Verbindungen oder Schwermetalle enthalten, deren Konzentrationen höher sind als die in typischen naturbelassenen Rohstoffen, können als biogene Festbrennstoffe definiert werden und sind somit Teil der Normenreihe ISO 17225 [1].

Combustibles solides de récupération - Spécifications et classes (ISO 21640:2021)

Le présent document définit un système de classification pour les combustibles solides de récupération (CSR) ainsi qu'un modèle proposant une liste de caractéristiques pour la spécification de leurs propriétés, afin de les vendre et de les utiliser en soutien à la protection de l'environnement.
Les CSR sont produits à partir de déchets non dangereux.
NOTE 1        Les déchets solides municipaux non traités ne peuvent pas, en tant que tels, être considérés comme des CSR. Les déchets solides municipaux peuvent cependant servir de charge d'alimentation des usines produisant les CSR.
NOTE 2        Les biocombustibles solides traités chimiquement qui ne contiennent pas de composés organiques halogénés ni de métaux lourds dans des proportions plus élevées que d'ordinaire dans les matériaux vierges classiques, peuvent être définis comme des biocombustibles solides et donc faire partie de la série de normes ISO 17225[1].

ISO 21640:2021(E)
Introduction
The objective of this document is to provide a common classification and specification system for solid
recovered fuels (SRF) to enable efficient trading of SRF, to promote their safe use in energy conversion
activities and to increase the public trust. The document facilitates a good understanding between
seller and buyer, supports purchase, trans border movements, use and supervision as well as an
effective communication with equipment manufacturers. The classification and specification system
support authority permission procedures and ease the reporting on environmental issues.
SRF are produced from non-hazardous waste. The input waste can be production specific waste,
municipal solid waste, industrial waste, commercial waste, construction and demolition waste, sewage
sludge etc. It is thus obvious that SRF are a heterogeneous group of fuels. A well-defined system for
classification and specification is therefore of significant importance to reach the above-mentioned
objectives and intentions.
This document covers all types of SRF and will thus have a wide field of application. The aim of producing
a solid recovered fuel is to use it for energy purposes at th
