Full Description Preface:
This is the first edition of CAN/CSA-ISO 17225-5, Solid biofuels — Fuel specifications and classes — Part 5: Graded firewood, which is an adoption without modification of the identically titled ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 17225-5 (first edition, 2014-05-01).
For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as \"CAN/CSA-ISO 17225-5\" throughout.
This Standard is one of seven Standards developed by ISO/TC 238 on Solid Biofuels that are being adopted by CSA Group under the series Fuel specifications and classes, which consists of the following:
a) ISO 17225-1, Part 1: General requirements;
b) ISO 17225-2, Part 2: Graded wood pellets;
c) ISO 17225-3, Part 3: Graded wood briquettes;
d) ISO 17225-4, Part 4: Graded wood chips;
e) ISO 17225-5, Part 5: Graded firewood;
f) ISO 17225-6, Part 6: Graded non-woody pellets; and
g) ISO 17225-7, Part 7: Graded non-woody briquettes.
This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with CAN/CSA-ISO 17225-1:15, Solid biofuels — Fuel specifications and classes — Part 1: General requirements (adopted ISO 17225-1:2014).
The objective of the ISO 17225 series is to provide clear classification principles for solid biofuels and to serve as a tool to enable efficient trading of biofuels and enable a common understanding between producers and users. It will also facilitate authority permission procedures and reporting.
Scope:
This part of ISO 17225 determines the fuel quality classes and specifications of graded firewood. This part of ISO 17225 covers only firewood produced from the following raw materials (see ISO 17225-1, Table 1): 1.1.1 Whole trees without roots 1.1.3 Stem wood 1.1.4 Logging residues (thick branches, tops etc.) 1.2.1 Chemically untreated wood residues
