BS ISO 13605:2018 Solid mineral fuels. Major and minor elements in coal ash and coke ash. Wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescence spectrometric method
What is ISO 13605 about?
ISO 13605 is a safety standard on major and minor elements in coal ash and coke ash.
While coal ash contains contaminants that can potentially contaminate water and air, coke ash burns cleaner.
ISO 13605 sets out a wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (XRF) procedure for the determination of silicon, aluminium, iron, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, titanium, manganese, phosphorus, and sulphur in coal and coke ash.
The method is applicable to coal ashes, coke ashes, and boiler ashes having components within the concentration ranges.
Who is ISO 13605 for?
ISO 13605 on XRF for coal and coke ash is useful for sectors that use coal and coke for fuel. These include:
