Overview
SIST EN 15926:2011 is a European Standard developed by CEN that specifies a reliable and standardized method for the extraction of water-soluble sulfur from fertilizers where sulfur exists in multiple forms. This standard ensures consistency and accuracy in measuring the water-soluble sulfur trioxide content in EC-fertilizers, which is essential for quality control, regulatory compliance, and accurate fertilizer labeling. The method outlined is particularly relevant for manufacturers, laboratories, and regulatory bodies involved in fertilizer analysis.
Key Topics
Scope and Applicability
SIST EN 15926:2011 applies to EC-fertilizers with declared water-soluble sulfur trioxide content. It focuses on extracting sulfur that is present in various chemical forms, ensuring comprehensive analysis.Extraction Principle
The method involves dissolving sulfur from a fertilizer sample in cold water, followed by oxidation to sulfate using hydrogen peroxide in an alkaline medium. This process enables accurate quantification of water-soluble sulfur content.Sampling and Sample Preparation
Although sampling is not detailed in this standard, EN 1482-1 and EN 1482-2 are referenced for proper sampling and sample preparation to achieve representative and homogeneous laboratory samples.Reagents and Apparatus
The method requires analytical-grade reagents such as diluted hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and hydrogen peroxide solutions. Essential apparatus includes a graduated flask, rotary shaker, and an electric hot plate with temperature control.Step-by-Step Procedure
A precise weighing of the fertilizer sample is followed by water extraction with shaking, resting, and filtering. The extract undergoes oxidation with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hydroxide, then acidification before sulfate content determination following EN 15749.Test Reporting Requirements
The test report must document the method reference, sample identification, sampling data, extraction completion date, and details of any procedural deviations or incidents influencing the results.
Applications
Quality Control in Fertilizer Production
Manufacturers use SIST EN 15926:2011 to verify the water-soluble sulfur content, ensuring products meet declared specifications and regulatory standards.Regulatory Compliance
Compliance with EU fertilizer regulations requires accurate measurement of sulfur compounds. This method provides standardized testing aligned with EC requirements.Agricultural Soil Fertility Management
Accurate sulfur content analysis helps agronomists and farmers optimize fertilizer application for improved crop yield and soil health.Laboratory Analysis and Certification
Testing laboratories rely on this standard to offer validated and reproducible results for fertilizer certification and quality assurance.
