EN 15104:2011 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 15104:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 335 “Solid biofuels”, the secretariat of which is held by SIS. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2011, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2011. This document supersedes CEN/TS 15104:2005. In the pre-normative project BIONORM I&II a robustness test has been performed to find out if all critical parameters in the standard were addressed. Based on the results of that test it has been concluded that all critical parameters were covered. Only minor technical changes were necessary which have been implemented in the revised text. The revision also includes a change of deliverable from Technical Specification to European Standard and updated normative references. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

EN 15104:2011 (E) 4 Introduction Instrumental methods for the analysis of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen are now in widespread and in regular use, often in preference to formerly developed chemical methods for which International Standards exist. The reliable determination of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen is important for quality control and the results can be used as input parameters for calculations applied to the combustion of solid biofuels. The environmental importance of the nitrogen content is linked to emissions of NOx (formation of fuel NOx). Hydrogen content is important for calculation of the net calorific value. Carbon content is required for the determination of CO2-emissions. It is recognized that the Kjeldahl method is most reliable for determining nitrogen contents with a concentration lower than 0,1 %. Possible suitable methods are summarised in the bibliography. SIST EN 15104:2011
EN 15104:2011 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of total carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen contents in solid biofuels. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

These consist mainly of carbon dioxide, water vapour, elemental nitrogen and/or oxides of nitrogen, oxides and oxyacids of sulfur and hydrogen halides. The products of combustion are treated to ensure that any hydrogen associated with sulfur or halides products of combustion are liberated as water vapour. Oxides of nitrogen are reduced to nitrogen, and those products of combustion which would interfere with the subsequent gas-analysis procedures are removed. The carbon SIST EN 15104:2011
EN 15104:2011 (E) 6 dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen mass fractions of the gas stream are then determined quantitatively by appropriate instrumental gas- analysis procedures. 5 Reagents and calibration substances 5.1 General Unless otherwise stated, use only reagents and calibration standards of recognised analytical grade for the analysis. WARNING — Care should be exercised when handling reagents, many of which are toxic and corrosive. 5.2 Carrier gas The carrier gas used is Helium or another suitable gas as specified by the instrument manufacturer. 5.3 Oxygen Oxygen is used as specified by the instrument manufacturer. 5.4 Additional reagents Additional reagents are of types and qualities as specified by the instrument manufacturer. 5.5 Calibration substances Examples of pure organic substances suitable for calibration are given in Table 1.
