BS EN ISO 17827-1:2024

This standard BS EN ISO 17827-1:2024 Solid biofuels. Determination of particle size distribution for uncompressed fuels is classified in these ICS categories:

• 75.160.40 Biofuels
• 27.190 Biological sources and alternative sources of energy

This document specifies a method for the determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the horizontally oscillating screen method. It applies to particulate uncompressed fuels with a nominal top size of 3,15 mm and above, e.g. wood chips, hog fuel, olive stones. The method is intended to characterize material up to a particle size class (P) of P63. For larger P-classes and PL-classes, the characterization is mainly done by hand sorting. NOTE            The definitions and specifications of P- and PL-classes are given in ISO 17225-1, ISO 17225-4 and ISO 17225-9.
