Introduction
The objective of the ISO 17225 series is to provide unambiguous and clear classification principles
for solid biofuels and to serve as a tool to enable efficient trading of biofuels and to enable good
understanding between seller and buyer as well as a tool for communication with equipment
manufacturers. It will also facilitate authority permission procedures and reporting.
The ISO 17225 series is made for all stakeholders.
Solid biomass covers organic, non-fossil material of biological origin which may be used as fuel for heat
and electrical generation.
Figure 1 describes the bioenergy utilization chain from sources of biomass, to biofuel production to
final use of bioenergy. Although biomass can be used for energy generation it has many other primary
uses (non-fuels) as a raw material for construction, furniture, packaging, paper products, etc.
Figure 1 — ISO TC 238 within the biomass — Biofuel — Bioenergy field
The classifications given in this document are provided with the objective of using biomass as a solid
biofuel and therefore do not deal with all other uses.
Although the product standards starting from Part 2 of the ISO 17225 series may be obtained separately,
they require 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 these standards.
In the product standards, graded means that solid biofuel is used either in commercial applications,
such as in households and small commercial and public sector buildings or industrial applications,
which demand the use of fuels with specified quality (properties) expressed by quality classes like A1,
A2 or B.

NOTE 3 Designation symbols are used in combination with a number to specify property levels in Tables 3 to
15. For designation of chemical properties, chemical symbols such as S (sulfur), Cl (chlorine), and N (nitrogen) are
used and the property class is added at the end of the symbol.
5 Principle
Solid biofuels are specified by:
a) origin and source, Clause 6;
b) major traded forms and properties, Clause 7.
For specification of origin and source, see Table 1. For major traded forms, see Table 2.
For specification of properties see Tables 3 to 15. The major traded forms of solid biofuels are covered
by Tables 3 to 14. Table 15 is a general master table to be used for a specification of solid biofuels not
covered by Tables 3 to 14.
Tables 3 to 15 list the normative properties, which shall be specified and informative properties, which
are voluntary. Normative properties vary depending on both origin and traded form.
EXAMPLE OF SPECIFICATION
Origin: Logging residues (1.1.4)
Traded form: Wood chips
Properties: Dimensions P45, Fines F05, Moisture M40, Ash A1.5
In the case of wood chips and hog fuel (Table 5) the properties of dimensions, fines, moisture and ash
are normative in the specification. Other properties are informative.
Product standards for graded solid biofuels are given in other parts of this ISO series.
6 Classification of origin and sources of solid biofuels
6.1 General
The classification is based on the biofuel origin and source. In the hierarchical classification system
(Table 1) the main origin-based solid biofuel groups are:
a) woody biomass;
b) herbaceous biomass;
c) fruit biomass;
d) aquatic biomass;
e) blends and mixtures.
Woody biomass is biomass from trees, bushes and shrubs.
Herbaceous biomass is from plants that have a non-woody stem and which die back at the end of the
growing season. It includes grains and their by-products.
Fruit biomass is biomass from those parts of a plant which are from or hold seeds.
Aquatic biomass is from so called hydrophytic plants or hydrophytes, which are plants that have
adapted to living in or on aquatic environments.
If appropriate, also the actual species (e.g. spruce, wheat) of biomass should be stated.

The term “Blends and mixtures” in Table 1 refers to material of various origin within the given box
in the classification table and appears on all four classification levels. Blends are intentionally mixed
biofuels, whereas mixtures are unintentionally mixed biofuels. The origin of the blend and mixture
shall be described using Table 1.
If a solid biofuel blend or mixture contains chemically treated material it shall be stated.
The second level of classification in Table 1 describes fuels from different sources within the main
groups, primarily stating whether the biomass is a virgin material, a by-product or a residue from the
industry.
Groups in Table 1 are further divided into third and fourth level sub-groups. The purpose of Table 1
is to allow the possibility to differentiate and specify biofuel material based on origin with as much
detail as needed. With the help of typical values from informative Annex B information on physical and
chemical properties can be deduced.
Examples for classification according to Table 1:
a) Whole trees without roots from birch (1.1.1.1);
b) Blend (1.1.1.5) of broad-leaf and coniferous whole trees without roots (1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2);
c) Oil palm stem (1.1.3.3);
d) Logging residues (1.1.4);
e) Oil palm branches (1.1.4.1);
f) Logging residues from spruce stands (1.1.4.2);
g) Sawdust from broad-leaf (1.2.1.1);
h) Plywood from coniferous (1.2.2.1);
i) Plywood residues (1.2.2.1);
j) Grinding dust from furniture industry (1.2.2.1);
k) Lignin (1.2.2.4);
l) Unpainted and untreated construction wood (1.3.1.1);
m) Pallets (1.3.1.1 or 1.3.2.1);
n) Demolition wood (1.3.2.1)
o) Straw from wheat, barley, oat, rye (2.1.1.2);
p) Rice husk (2.1.1.4);
q) Reed canary grass (2.1.2.1);
r) Bamboo (2.1.2.5);

Introduction
The objective of the ISO 17225 series is to provide unambiguous and clear classification principles
for solid biofuels and to serve as a tool to enable efficient trading of biofuels and to enable good
understanding between seller and buyer as well as a tool for communication with equipment
manufacturers. It will also facilitate authority permission procedures and reporting.
The ISO 17225 series is made for all stakeholders.
Solid biomass covers organic, non-fossil material of biological origin which may be used as fuel for heat
and electrical generation.
Figure 1 describes the bioenergy utilization chain from sources of biomass, to biofuel production to
final use of bioenergy. Although biomass can be used for energy generation it has many other primary
uses (non-fuels) as a raw material for construction, furniture, packaging, paper products, etc.
Figure 1 — ISO TC 238 within the biomass — Biofuel — Bioenergy field
The classifications given in this International Standard are provided with the objective of using biomass
as a solid biofuel and therefore do not deal with all other uses.
Although the product standards from Part 2 of the ISO 17225 series may be obtained separately,
they require 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 these standards.
In the product standards, graded means that solid biofuel is used either in commercial applications,
such as in households and small commercial and public sector buildings or industrial applications,
which demand the use of fuels with specified quality (properties) expressed by quality classes like A1,
A2 or B.

5 Principle
Solid biofuels are specified by:
a) origin and source, Clause 6;
b) major traded forms and properties, Clause 7.
For specification of origin and source, see Table 1. For major traded forms, see Table 2.
For specification of properties see Tables 3 to 15. The major traded forms of solid biofuels are covered
by Tables 3 to 14. Table 15 is a general master table to be used for a specification of solid biofuels not
covered by Tables 3 to 14.
Tables 3 to 15 list the normative properties, which shall be specified and informative properties, which
are voluntary. Normative properties vary depending on both origin and traded form.
EXAMPLE OF SPECIFICATION
Origin: Logging residues (1.1.4)
Traded form: Wood chips
Properties: Dimensions P45, Fines F05, Moisture M40, Ash A1.5
In the case of wood chips (Table 5) the properties of dimensions, fines, moisture and ash are normative
in the specification. Other properties are informative.
Product standards for graded solid biofuels are given in other parts of this ISO series.
6 Classification of origin and sources of solid biofuels
6.1 General
The classification is based on the biofuel origin and source. In the hierarchical classification system
(Table 1) the main origin-based solid biofuel groups are:
a) woody biomass;
b) herbaceous biomass;
c) fruit biomass;
d) aquatic biomass;
e) blends and mixtures.
Woody biomass is biomass from trees, bushes and shrubs.
Herbaceous biomass is from plants that have a non-woody stem and which die back at the end of the
growing season. It includes grains and their by-products such as cereals.
Fruit biomass is biomass from those parts of a plant which are from or hold seeds.
Aquatic biomass is from so called hydrophytic plants or hydrophytes, which are plants that have
adapted to living in or on aquatic environments.
If appropriate, also the actual species (e.g. spruce, wheat) of biomass should be stated.
The term “Blends and mixtures” in Table 1 refers to material of various origin within the given box
in the classification table and appears on four levels. Blends are intentionally mixed biofuels, whereas

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
oSIST prEN ISO 17225-1:2020
ISO/DIS 17225-1:2020(E)

mixtures are unintentionally mixed biofuels. The origin of the blend and mixture shall be described
using Table 1.
If a solid biofuel blend or mixture contains chemically treated material it shall be stated.
The second level of classification in Table 1 describes fuels from different sources within the main
groups, primarily stating whether the biomass is a virgin material, a by-product or a residue from the
industry.
Groups in Table 1 are further divided into third and fourth level sub-groups. The purpose of Table 1
is to allow the possibility to differentiate and specify biofuel material based on origin with as much
detail as needed. With the help of typical values from informative Annex B information on physical and
chemical properties can be deduced.
Examples for classification according to Table 1:
a) Whole trees without roots from birch (1.1.1.1);
b) Blend (1.1.1.5) of broad-leaf and coniferous whole trees without roots (1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2 );
c) Oil palm stem (1.1.3.3);
d) Logging residues (1.1.4);
e) Oil palm branches (1.1.4.1);
f) Logging residues from spruce stands (1.1.4.2);
g) Sawdust from broad-leaf (1.2.1.1);
h) Plywood from coniferous (1.2.2.1);
i) Plywood residues (1.2.2.1);
j) Grinding dust from furniture industry (1.2.2.1);
k) Lignin (1.2.2.4);
l) Unpainted and untreated construction wood (1.3.1.1);
m) Pallets (1.3.2.1);
n) Demolition wood (1.3.2.1)
o) Straw from wheat, barley, oat, rye (2.1.1.2);
p) Rice husk (2.1.1.4);
q) Reed canary grass (2.1.2.1);
r) Bamboo (2.1.2.5);
s) Grains or seeds crops from food processing industry (2.2.1.1);
t) Palm kernel or palm shell (3.1.2.3);
u) Oil palm fruit bunch (3.2.1.2);
v) Olive residues from olive pressing (3.2.2.4);
w) Kelp (4.3.2.4, Latin name to be stated);
x) Blend (5.1); 80w-% sawdust from coniferous (1.2.1.2) and 20 w-% reed canary grass (2.1.2.1);
