Organic and organo-mineral fertilizers - Determination of specific parameters

This document specifies references to the methods for the determination of the following parameters in organic and organo-mineral fertilizers:
—   Determination of the total organic carbon content;
—   Determination of the dry matter content.
The method for the determination of the total organic carbon is not applicable to products containing urea-formaldehyde polymers or urea as long as there is no method available to assess carbon in urea-formaldehyde polymers or urea. The carbon contained in these compounds is not considered organic [1].
The scope of the standards referenced in this document specifies in which cases the method is also applicable to fertilizing product blends.

Organische und organisch-mineralische Düngemittel - Bestimmung spezifischer Parameter

Dieses Dokument legt Verweisungen auf Verfahren zur Bestimmung der folgenden Parameter in organischen und organisch-mineralischen Düngemitteln fest.
   Bestimmung des Gehalts an gesamtem organischem Kohlenstoff;
   Bestimmung des Trockenmassegehalts.
Das Verfahren für die Bestimmung des Gehalts an gesamtem organischem Kohlenstoff ist nicht anwendbar auf Produkte, die Harnstoff-Formaldehyd-Polymere oder Harnstoff enthalten, solange kein Verfahren zur Beurteilung von Kohlenstoff in Harnstoff-Formaldehyd-Polymeren oder Harnstoff zur Verfügung steht. Der in diesen Verbindungen enthaltene Kohlenstoff wird nicht als organisch betrachtet [1].
Im Abschnitt „Anwendungsbereich“ der jeweiligen Normen, auf die in diesem Dokument verwiesen wird, ist festgelegt, in welchen Fällen das Verfahren auch auf Düngeproduktmischungen anwendbar ist.

Engrais organiques et organo-minéraux - Détermination de paramètres spécifiques

Le présent document spécifie les références aux méthodes de détermination des paramètres suivants dans les engrais organiques et organo-minéraux :
—   détermination de la teneur en carbone organique total ;
—   détermination de la teneur en matière sèche.
La méthode de détermination du carbone organique total n’est pas applicable aux produits contenant des polymères urée-formaldéhyde ou de l’urée tant qu’il n’existe pas de méthode disponible pour évaluer la teneur en carbone dans les polymères urée-formaldéhyde ou l’urée. Le carbone contenu dans ces composés n’est pas considéré comme organique [1].
Le domaine d’application des normes référencées dans le présent document spécifie dans quels cas la méthode est également applicable aux mélanges de fertilisants.
