Bibliography

Defines three normative methods for the determination of the biomass fraction in solid recovered fuel, and when to use each method.

This European Standard specifies three normative methods for the determination of the biomass fraction in solid recovered fuel, and when to use each method. The methods are the selective dissolution in a hydrogen peroxide/sulphuric acid mixture, the manual sorting method and the method based on the 14C content.
