What is PD CEN/TR 15149-3 - Determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method about?
PD CEN/TR 15149-3 specifies a method for the determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method.
The method described is meant for particulate biofuels only, namely materials that either have been reduced in size, such as most wood fuels, or are physically in a particulate form e.g. olive stones, nutshells, grain, etc.
PD CEN/TR 15149-3 applies to particulate uncompressed fuels with a nominal top size of 3,15 mm and over, e.g. wood chips, hog fuel, olive stones, etc.
Who is PD CEN/TR 15149-3 - Determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method for?
PD CEN/TR 15149-3 on determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method is useful for:
- Suppliers and consumers of particulate biofuels
- Research institutes/ academia
- Biofuels industry
- Testing laboratories
- Manufacturers of rotary sieving machine
Why should you use PD CEN/TR 15149-3 - Determination of the size distribution of particulate biofuels by the rotary screen method?
PD CEN/TR 15149-3 describes an innovative method, by which the degree of overestimating the fine particle fractions is reduced. As it is currently not generally available, it is here proposed for research and development purposes or for individual quality management processes, in which the quality requirements are bilaterally defined between the suppliers and consumers based on this method.
PD CEN/TR 15149-3 provides you with guidance on operating principle of the rotary sieving machine, results of the size distribution analysis, schematic representation of an example of a rotary sieving machine.
