Solid biofuels - Sampling - Part 2: Methods for sampling particulate material transported in lorries
This Technical Specification describes methods for taking samples of solid biofuels that are transported in lorries, and is applicable to solid biofuels that are either:
- fine and regularly-shaped particulate materials, particle sizes up to about 10 mm that can be sampled using a scoop, for example: sawdust, olive stones and wood pellets;
- coarse or irregularly-shaped particulate materials, particle sizes up to about 200 mm that can be sampled using a fork or shovel, for example: wood chips and nut shells, forest residue chips, and loose straw.
It may be used, for example, when the samples are to be tested for bulk density, durability, particle size distribution, moisture content, ash content, ash melting behaviour, calorific value, chemical composition and impurities. It is not intended for obtaining the very large samples required for the testing of bridging properties. It does not provide any information on how often lorry-loads should be selected for sampling.
Feste Biobrennstoffe - Probenahme - Teil 2: Verfahren zur Probenahme von Schüttgut bei Anlieferung in Lastkraftwagen
Diese Technische Spezifikation legt Verfahren zur Probenahme von festen Biobrennstoffen, die in
Lastkraftwagen angeliefert werden und eines der folgenden Merkmale aufweisen, fest:
. feine und regelmäßig geformte aus Teilchen bestehende Stoffe mit einer Teilchengröße bis etwa 10 mm,
von denen mit einem Löffel Proben entnommen werden können, zum Beispiel: Sägespäne, Olivenkerne
und Holzpellets;
. grobe oder unregelmäßig geformte aus Teilchen bestehende Stoffe mit einer Teilchengröße bis etwa
200 mm, von denen mit einer Gabel oder einer Schaufel Proben entnommen werden können, zum
Beispiel: Holzhackschnitzel und Nussschalen, Waldholzhackschnitzel und loses Stroh.
Die Verfahren dürfen zum Beispiel angewendet werden, wenn die Proben im Hinblick auf Schüttdichte,
Dauerhaftigkeit, Teilchengrößenverteilung, Wasser- und Aschegehalt, Ascheschmelzverhalten, Energieinhalt,
chemische Zusammensetzung und Verunreinigungen zu prüfen sind. Die Verfahren sind nicht für das
Herstellen der für die Prüfung von Brückenbildungseigenschaften erforderlichen sehr großen Proben
vorgesehen. Es bietet keine Angaben zur Häufigkeit, mit der LKW-Ladungen für eine Probenahme
auszuwählen sind.

Introduction
Biofuels are a major source of renewable energy. Technical Specifications are needed for production, trade
and use of solid biofuels. For sampling and sample preparation of biofuels the following Technical
Specifications can be used:
CEN/TS 14778-1, Solid biofuels - Sampling – Part 1: Methods for sampling
CEN/TS 14778-2, Solid Biofuels - Sampling – Part 2: Methods for sampling particulate material transported in
lorries
CEN/TS 14779, Solid biofuels – Sampling – Methods for preparing sampling plans and sampling certificates
CEN/TS 14780, Solid biofuels - Methods for sample preparation
Current practice and the best available knowledge have been used to write these Technical Specifications.
The results of recent sampling experiments may be used to improve the sampling plans.
These Technical Specifications can be used by production and trading of solid biofuels. They are also useful
for buyers of solid biofuels, regulators, controllers and laboratories.

1 Scope
This Technical Specification describes methods for taking samples of solid biofuels that are transported in
lorries, and is applicable to solid biofuels that are either:
fine and regularly-shaped particulate materials, particle sizes up to about 10 mm that can be sampled
using a scoop, for example: sawdust, olive stones and wood pellets;
coarse or irregularly-shaped particulate materials, particle sizes up to about 200 mm that can be sampled
using a fork or shovel, for example: wood chips and nut shells, forest residue chips, and loose straw.
It may be used, for example, when the samples are to be tested for bulk density, durability, particle size
distribution, moisture content, ash content, ash melting behaviour, calorific value, chemical composition and
impurities. It is not intended for obtaining the very large samples required for the testing of bridging properties.
It does not provide any information on how often lorry-loads should be selected for sampling.

EXAMPLE Consider a power station that receives 20 lorry-loads of wood chips a day. Every single lorry-load is
tested for moisture content. One lorry-load is selected at random for other tests. In this example, the lot could be the
quantity of fuel delivered in a day (20 lorry-loads) and the sub-lot could be a single lorry-load.
3.14
sub-sample
portion of a sample
3.15
test portion
sub-sample of a laboratory sample consisting of the quantity of material required for a single execution of a
test method

5 Principle of correct sampling
The main principle of sampling is to get a representative sample (samples) from the whole lot concerned.
Every particle in the lot or sub-lot to be represented by the sample should have an equal probability of being
included in the sample. When this principle cannot be applied in practice, the sampler shall note the limitations
in the sampling plan.
6 Sampling plan
A written sampling plan shall be prepared, before samples are taken, according to CEN/TS 14779.
The plan takes into account single lorry loads and continuous delivery of one
