ISO 21912 provides principles and requirements for safe handling, treatment and storage of solid recovered fuels (SRF), prepared from non-hazardous waste, to be used for energy purposes. ISO 21912 covers process stages from point of acceptance of material to point of delivery of SRF.
ISO 21912 excludes fuels that are included in the scope of ISO/TC 238 Solid biofuels and ISO/TC 28 Petroleum products and related products of synthetic or biological origin.
ISO 21912 uses an approach to determine what safety measures are to be considered.
ISO 21912 provides support, advice and guidance to
Modern society is based on the production and consumption of an enormous variety of products, both for industrial and private use. After its intended use, the product will be disposed of as waste by the user and will then enter the chain of waste management which includes a variety of handling, storage and processing/recycling methods.
ISO 21912 provides information on risk management, SRF processes, safety considerations and requirements for the SRF plant, safety considerations and requirements for specific parts of the SRF production and handling process, fire protection.
In facilities where dry combustible materials are handled such as in SRF facilities, there are several probabilities present for fires and dust explosions. The guidelines and safety information provided by ISO 21912 assist the Solid recovered fuels Facility owners to reduce the issue factors, and possible dangers associated with the production of solid recovered fuels. ISO 21912 helps the user to increase the safety of all the workers working in solid recovered fuels facilities. For businesses, ISO 21912 gives users a disciplined approach to fire safety design.
