 This International Standard describes methods for the determination of sulfur and chlorine content in solid biofuels and pyrogenic biocarbon and specifies two methods for decomposition of the fuel and different analytical techniques for the quantification of the elements in the decomposition solutions. The determination of other elements such as fluorine and bromine is also possible with the methods in this document, however performance data for these elements are not provided. The use of automatic equipment is also included in this International Standard, provided that a validation is carried out as specified and that the performance characteristics are similar to those of the method described in this International Standard.

This document specifies the requirements for the safety of persons and property, provides guidance for the protection of the environment and establishes procedures for the operation, maintenance and repair of refrigerating systems and the recovery of refrigerants. The term “refrigerating system” used in this document includes heat pumps. This part of EN 378 specifies the classification and selection criteria applicable to refrigerating systems. These classification and selection criteria are used in Parts 2, 3 and 5. This document applies to: a) refrigerating systems, stationary or mobile, of all sizes except to vehicle air conditioning systems covered by a specific product standard e.g. [7] b) secondary cooling or heating systems; c) the location of the refrigerating systems; d) replaced parts and added components after adoption of this document if they are not identical in function and in the capacity. Systems using refrigerants other than those listed in Part 5 of this standard are not covered by this document. Clause 7 specifies how to determine the refrigerant quantity safety limit in a given space, which, when exceeded, requires additional protective measures to reduce the risk. This document is not applicable to refrigerating systems which were manufactured before the date of its publication as a European Standard except for extensions and modifications to the system which were implemented after publication. This document is applicable to new refrigerating systems, extensions or modifications of already existing systems, and for existing stationary systems, being transferred to and operated on another site. This document also applies in the case of the conversion of a system to another refrigerant type, in which case conformity to the relevant clauses of Parts 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the standard is expected to be assessed. Product family standards dealing with the safety of refrigerating systems take precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.

The present test method uses radioactive methyl iodide (CH3131I) as a tracer to determine the in-situ decontamination factor of an iodine trap. An in-situ test allows to reach the global efficiency of the trap characterized by the sorbent efficiency but also by the implementation of the trap within the ventilation duct) while the intrinsic efficiency of a charcoal is characterized in a laboratory by ISO 18417[4] (or other national standards as ASTM D3803[6]). This document provides general and common requirements for this method to assess the efficiency of an iodine trap, but also, the tools requirements, accuracy and the provisions needed to ensure safety of the workers, public and the environment during the test. This reproductible method can support nuclear facility operators as a reference method to compare the decontamination factor evaluated by this method to reference values (e.g. safety criteria, national legislation, etc.). Because of the use of a radioactive tracer, some cautions apply. First, this method is usually used for ventilation systems with monitoring of gaseous iodine releases in environment in accordance with the national regulations. Second, this method is not used to determine the decontamination factor of iodine traps used in ventilation systems with air release in rooms with potential presence of workers (e.g. control room). A non-radioactive method is preferred. This document can apply to installations with low inventory of radioiodine equipped with iodine traps (e.g. small laboratories). In this case, some provisions can be adapted but always in accordance with the national regulations. Finally, this document mainly deals with iodine traps using impregnated activated carbon. However, this method can be used with some adaptations to other solid sorbent as inorganic sorbent (e.g. zeolite  – aluminum and silica base usually doped with silver nitrate - or impregnated catalytic supports.

ISO 16659 series provide different test methods aiming at assessing the performances of radioactive iodine traps in ventilation systems of nuclear facilities. This series deals with iodine traps with solid sorbent, mainly activated and impregnated charcoal, the most common solid sorbents used in ventilation systems of nuclear facilities, as well as other sorbents for special conditions (e.g. high temperature zeolites). ISO 16659-1 provides the general requirements to be applied for all methods of the series. The scope of this document is to provide general and generic requirements for the test method using cyclohexane (C6H12) as a tracer to determine the mechanical leakage rate of iodine trap. This reproducible method can support nuclear operators to compare the result with reference values given in safety reports. Unlike the method of radioactive methyl iodide described in ISO/DIS 16659-2, the cyclohexane field test method covered in this document does not directly give a decontamination factor for the iodine trap, but only the iodine trap performance information of an integrity test, and the interpretation of whether the performance of the iodine trap meets the requirements needs to be combined with the results of the radioiodine efficiency test of the adsorbent in the iodine trap. Due to the use of the environmentally friendly test reagent of low-toxicity in the field tests, the method is mainly suitable for ventilation systems of those habitable spaces (e.g. main control rooms of nuclear power plants), and performance test of a single iodine adsorber before its delivery and acceptance. In addition, the method can also be used for iodine traps with activated carbon sampling canister (e.g. Deep Bed Iodine Adsorber Type III and Drawer Iodine Adsorber Type II).
