Solid biofuels - Methods for determination of moisture content - Oven dry method - Part 1: Total moisture - Reference method

This document describes the method of determining the total moisture content of a sample of solid biofuels by drying in an oven and should be used when high precision of the determination of moisture content is necessary. The method described in this document is applicable to all solid biofuels.
The total moisture content of biofuels is not an absolute value and conditions for its determination have to be standardised to enable comparative determinations to be made.  
NOTE  The term moisture content when used with biomass materials can be misleading since untreated biomass frequently contains varying amounts of volatile compounds (extractives) which may evaporate when determining moisture content by oven drying.

Feste Biobrennstoffe - Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Wassergehaltes - Verfahren der Ofentrocknung - Teil 1: Gehalt an Gesamtwasser - Referenzverfahren

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Gehaltes an Gesamtwasser einer Probe von festen Biobrennstoffen durch Trocknen in einem Ofen fest und sollte angewendet werden, wenn eine hohe Präzision der Bestimmung des Wassergehaltes erforderlich ist. Das in diesem Dokument festgelegte Verfahren gilt für alle festen Biobrennstoffe.
Der Wassergehalt von Biobrennstoffen ist kein absoluter Wert und die Bedingungen für seine Bestimmung müssen genormt sein, um die Durchführung vergleichbarer Bestimmungen zu ermöglichen.
ANMERKUNG   Der Begriff Wassergehalt kann bei der Anwendung im Zusammenhang mit Biomasse irreführend sein, weil unbehandelte Biomasse oft unterschiedliche Mengen an flüchtigen Verbindungen (Extraktstoffen) enthält, die bei der Bestimmung des Wassergehaltes durch Ofentrocknung verdampfen können.

This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 19 January 2004 for provisional application.
The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.
CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)
until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 14774-1:2004) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 335 “Solid
Biofuels”, the secretariat of which is held by SIS.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this CEN Technical Specification : Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,

Introduction
CEN/TS 14774 consists of the following parts under the general title Solid Biofuels – Methods for the
determination of moisture content – Oven dry methods.
Part 1 Total moisture – Reference method
Part 2 Total moisture – Simplified method
Part 3 Moisture in general analysis sample
1 Scope
This document describes the method of determining the total moisture content of a sample of solid biofuels by
drying in an oven and should be used when high precision of the determination of moisture content is
necessary. The method described in this document is applicable to all solid biofuels.
The total moisture content of biofuels is not an absolute value and conditions for its determination have to be
standardised to enable comparative determinations to be made.
NOTE The term moisture content when used with biomass materials can be misleading since untreated biomass
frequently contains varying amounts of volatile compounds (extractives) which may evaporate when determining moisture
content by oven drying.
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.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the terms and definitions given in CEN/TS 14588:2003 shall apply.
NOTE In this method the moisture content should be reported on wet basis. The moisture content can also be
expressed on dry basis; ratio of the mass of water in the material to the mass of dry matter in the material. (see Clause
