DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing
NA 062-03-103 AA
Solid biofuels
The committee NA 062-03-103 “Solid biofuels” develops standards for the technical quality requirements for fuels and for the definition of fuel classes, for the specification of test and measurement methods, for technical terminology, as well as for quality assurance measures and safety aspects in the field of raw materials and processed materials from agriculture, aquaculture, and forestry and the wood industry, which serve as sources for thermally and non-thermally treated biogenic solid fuels. The working committee, together with NA 062-03-102 AA “Pyrogenic Carbons – Characterization and analytical methods,” mirrors the European standardization work of CEN/TC 335 “Solid Biofuels and Pyrogenic Biocarbon” and the international standardization work of ISO/TC 238 “Solid Biofuels and Pyrogenic Biocarbon” in the field of biogenic solid fuels and pyrogenic carbons. Standards for solid recovered fuels are dealt with in NA 062-03-104 AA “Solid recovered materials including solid recovered fuels”.
