Pre-normative research on solid biofuels for improved European standards

To develop the market for solid biofuels within the EU, standards are urgently needed. Based on a mandate given by the EC, CEN TC 335 "Solid Biofuels" currently develops such standards based on the available knowledge. In the meantime, several Technical Specifications (TS) (or pre-standards) are available. They have to be upgraded to European Stand

Results
The project has developed equipment and a method for determination of impurities in biomass, equivalent to the determination of biomass tend to bridging. Procedures for quality tools (quality assurance, quality control, quality improvement and quality planning) have been establisehd. Finally, combustion tests on a variety of fuels have been performed according to the European standard EN303-5. The project results will now be used for standardization in CEN. The project website is www.bionorm2.eu. (Energy 11)
