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. www.iso.org/directives

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 1170:2013(E)
Coal and coke — Calculation of analyses to different bases
1 Scope
This International Standard gives equations that allow analytical data relating to coal and coke to be
expressed on the various different bases in common use. Consideration is given to corrections that can
be applied to certain determined values for coal prior to their calculation to other bases.
2 Normatives references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Principle
In order to convert an analytical result expressed on one basis to another basis, it is multiplied by a factor
calculated from the appropriate formulae (see Table 1) after insertion of the requisite numerical values.

The symbols employed in the subsequent clauses are as follows, with suffixes (separated by a dot)

5 Calculations for coal analyses
5.1 Introduction
In International Standards covering the analysis of coal, it is generally specified that the determination
shall be carried out on an air-dried test sample. However, in making use of these analyses, it is sometimes
necessary to express or report the results on some other basis. The bases in common use are “air-dried”,
“as-received”, “dry”, “dry, ash-free”, and “dry, mineral-matter-free”.
5.2 Procedure
Any analytical value (except net calorific value) on a particular basis may be converted to any other
basis by multiplying it by the appropriate factor calculated from the formulae given in Table 1, after
insertion of the requisite numerical values for the symbols (for determination of moisture, see ISO 589
and ISO 11722; for ash, see ISO 1171). However, in some determinations, there is a direct involvement of
the mineral matter and, in these cases, it is essential to apply a correction to the air-dried result prior to
its calculation to the dry, mineral-matter-free basis. This correction is dependent on the nature, as well
as the quantity, of the mineral matter present and, for any given sample, the formula recommended by
the national standards organization of the country of origin of the sample should be use
