ISO 14044 requires the goal and scope of an LCA to be clearly defined and be consistent with the intended application. Due to the iterative nature of LCA, it is possible that the LCA scope needs to be refined during the study. This document specifies methodologies that can be applied to determine the carbon footprint of a product (CFP) or partial CFP of a hydrogen product in line with ISO 14067. The goals and scopes of the methodologies correspond to either approach a) or b), given below, that ISO 14040:2006, A.2 gives as two possible approaches to LCA. a)   An approach that assigns elementary flows and potential environmental impacts to a specific product system, typically as an account of the history of the product. b)   An approach that studies the environmental consequences of possible (future) changes between alternative product systems. Approaches a) and b) have become known as attributional and consequential, respectively, with complementary information accessible in the ILCD handbook.[1] There are numerous pathways to produce hydrogen from various primary energy sources. This document describes the requirements and evaluation methods applied to several hydrogen production pathways of interest: electrolysis, steam methane reforming (with carbon capture and storage), co-production and coal gasification (with carbon capture and storage), auto-thermal reforming (with carbon capture and storage), hydrogen as a co-product in industrial applications and hydrogen from biomass waste as feedstock. This document also considers the GHG emissions due to the conditioning or conversion of hydrogen into different physical forms and chemical carriers: —   hydrogen liquefaction; —   production, transport and cracking of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier; —   hydrogenation, transport and dehydrogenation of liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs). This document considers the GHG emissions due to hydrogen and/or hydrogen carriers’ transport up to the consumption gate. It is possible that future revisions of this document will consider additional hydrogen production, conditioning, conversion and transport methods. This document applies to and includes every delivery along the supply chain up to the final delivery to the consumption gate (see Figure 2 in the Introduction). This document also provides additional information related to evaluation principles, system boundaries and expected reported metrics in the form of Annexes A to K, that are accessible via the online ISO portal (https://standards.iso.org/iso/ts/19870/ed-1/en).

This document specifies two procedures to check the performance of solar thermal collector fields. This document is applicable to glazed flat plate collectors, evacuated tube collectors and/or tracking, concentrating collectors used as collectors in fields. The check can be done on the thermal power output of the collector field and also be on the daily yield of the collector field. The document specifies for the two procedures how to compare a measured output with a calculated one. The document applies for all sizes of collector fields.

This document applies to industrial metallic valves for hydrogen use. It contains recommendations and additional requirements applicable to material selection, design, manufacture, and final assessment. This document addresses the following four services/damage mechanisms, which might exist in combinations: - low temperature applications; - hydrogen environmental embrittlement (HEE) or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC); - high temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA); - hydrogen service with cyclic loads (fatigue). The document considers the difference between gaseous hydrogen (GH2) and liquid hydrogen (LH2), where necessary. The additional provisions set out in this document do not cover corrosion such as electro-chemical corrosion of metals under participation of hydrogen (e.g. sour gas). This document is based on the requirements contained in the standards specified below: - applications with a maximum allowable pressure PS greater than 0,5 bar in accordance with the European legislation for pressure equipment, the applicable provisions of EN 16668 apply; - additional requirements for valves in chemical and petrochemical applications are specified in EN 12569; - additional requirements for valves in gas distribution systems are specified in EN 13774; - additional requirements for valves in gas transportation systems are specified in EN 14141.

This International standard describes requirements, design and installation of flexible pipe elements (e.g., metallic flexible pipe, metallic flexible tube, vibration isolator, expansion joint) and non-metallic tube used in the refrigerant circuits of refrigerating systems and heat pumps. It also describes the requirements to qualify the tightness and permeability of non-metallic tubes (e.g., plastic) used in evaporating and/or condensing sides of refrigerating systems and heat pumps. This International standard does not apply to flexible pipes that are only occasionally stressed beyond the elastic limit (e.g., during repair work), or to joints that are free to rotate or hinge.

This document specifies the applicable requirements related to the design and the operation of confinement and ventilation systems for fusion facilities for tritium fuels and tritium fuel handling facilities specific for fusion applications for peaceful purposes using high tritium inventories, as well as for their specialized buildings such as hot cells, examination laboratories, emergency management centres, radioactive waste treatment and storage facilities. In most countries, a tritium quantity is declared as high for tritium inventories higher than a range of 10 g to 100 g. In the tritium fusion facilities in the scope of this document, the tritium inventory is deemed to be higher than this range for the whole site. This document applies especially to confinement and ventilation systems that ensure the safety function of nuclear facilities involved in nuclear fusion with the goal to protect the workers, the public and the environment from the dissemination of radioactive contamination originating from the operation of these installations, and in particular from airborne tritium contamination with adequate confinement systems.

The purpose of this document is to give an overview of the minimum requirements for performing the dicentric assay with quality control measures using mitogen stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes for initial assessment of individuals involved in a mass casualty scenario. The dicentric assay is the use of chromosome damage to quickly estimate approximate radiation doses received by individuals in order to supplement the early clinical categorization of casualties. This document focuses on the organizational and operational aspects of applying the dicentric assay in an initial assessment mode. The technical aspects of the dicentric assay can be found in ISO 19238. This document is applicable either to an experienced biological dosimetry laboratory working alone or to a network of collaborating laboratories (as defined in Clause 7).

This document provides requirements and guidance regarding the use of CAAS for operations of a nuclear facility. Requirements and guidance on CAAS design are provided in the IEC 60860. This document is applicable to operations with fissile materials outside nuclear reactors but within the boundaries of nuclear establishments. This document applies when a need for CAAS has been established. Information about the need for CAAS is given in Annex C. This document does not include details of administrative steps, which are considered to be activities of a robust management system (ISO 14943 provides details of administrative steps). Details of nuclear accident dosimetry and personnel exposure evaluations are not within the scope of this document. This document is concerned with gamma and neutron radiation rate-sensing systems. Specific detection criteria can also be met with integrating systems; systems detecting either neutron or gamma radiation can also be used. Equivalent considerations then apply.
