UNE-EN ISO 18134-2:2017

This document describes the method of determining the total moisture content of a test sample of solidbiofuels by drying in an oven and is used when the highest precision is not needed, e.g. for routineproduction control on site. The method described in ISO 18134 (all parts) is applicable to all solidbiofuels. The moisture content of solid biofuels (as received) is always reported based on the total massof the test sample (wet basis).NOTE The term moisture content, when used with biomass materials, can be misleading since untreatedbiomass frequently contains varying amounts of volatile compounds (extractives) which might evaporate whendetermining moisture content by oven drying (see References [2] and [4]).
