This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 27 March 2010 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, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

1 Scope
This Technical Specification specifies a method for the determination of total moisture content of solid
recovered fuels by drying a sample in an oven. This method is suitable for use if a high precision of the
determination of moisture content is required. It is applicable to all solid recovered fuels.
NOTE 1 The total moisture content of solid recovered fuels is not an absolute value and therefore standardised
conditions for its determination are indispensable to enable comparative determinations.
NOTE 2 The term moisture content when used with recovered materials can be misleading since solid recovered
materials, e.g. biomass, frequently contains varying amounts of volatile compounds (extractives) which can evaporate
when determining moisture content by oven drying.
NOTE 3 This Technical Specification is based on prEN 14774-1 [1].
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this Technical Specification. For
dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
prEN 15357, Solid recovered fuels — Terminology, definitions and descriptions
prEN 15442, Solid recovered fuels — Methods for sampling
prEN 15443, Solid recovered fuels — Methods for the preparation of the laboratory sample
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Technical Specification, the terms and definitions given in prEN 15357 apply.
4 Principle
The sample of recovered fuel is dried at a temperature of 105 °C in air atmosphere until constant mass is
reached. The percentage of moisture is calculated from the loss in mass of the sample. The method includes
a procedure for the correction of buoyancy effects.
