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 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Introduction
Sulfur and chlorine are present in solid biofuels in varying concentrations. During the combustion process,
they are usually converted to sulfur-oxides and chlorides. The presence of these elements and their
reaction products can contribute significantly to corrosion and to environmentally harmful emissions.
Chlorine can be present in different organic and inorganic compounds and is to exceed or equal the
water soluble amount that can be determined by ISO 16995.
Oxygen combustion in a closed oxygen bomb is the preferred method to digest biomass samples for
a determination of the total content of sulfur and chlorine. An advantage of the method is that the
digestion can be carried out in connection with the determination of the calorific value according to
1)
EN 14918 . Decomposition in closed vessels is an appropriate alternative method. Other analytical
techniques (e.g. high-temperature combustion in a tube furnace and Eschka method) may also be used.
The determination of the resultant chlorine and sulfur compounds can be done by different techniques,
e.g. ion chromatography, ICP, titrimetry.
Automatic equipment and alternative methods may be used when these methods are validated with
biomass reference samples of an adequate type and also meet the requirements of Clause 10.
A list with typical sulfur and chlorine contents of biofuels can be found in CEN/TS 14961:2005, Annex C.

1 Scope
This International Standard describes methods for the determination of the total sulfur and total
chlorine content in solid biofuels. This International Standard specifies two methods for decomposition
of the fuel and different analytical techniques for the quantification of the elements in the decomposition
solutions. The use of automatic equipment is also included in this International Standard, provided that
a validation is carried out as specified and that the performance characteristics are similar to those of
the method described in this International Standard.
