About This Item
TS EN ISO 21637 is a vocabulary standard for solid recovered fuels. It brings together the terms and definitions used in standardisation work related to the production and trade of solid recovered fuels prepared from non-hazardous waste, helping establish a common technical language in this field.
A shared terminology framework
Solid recovered fuels are fuels derived from waste streams and intended for energy recovery, so they are distinguished from conventional coal or biomass fuels by their source, processing route and intended use. The terms covered by this standard support consistent communication across production chains, quality-related discussions, trading activities and broader standardisation work. The note in the scope also makes an important boundary clear: solid biofuels fall under ISO/TC 238, so the terminology in those areas is not interchangeable.
Why this vocabulary matters
- Provides common naming for solid recovered fuels made from non-hazardous waste.
- Supports consistency in production, trade and technical communication.
- Reminds users that the same concept may be defined differently in other standards with different scopes.
- Serves as a terminology basis for standardisation work within ISO/TC 300.
This document is not a product specification with test methods, numerical limits or acceptance criteria; its primary role is to align terminology. Users should therefore read the relevant application standard alongside it when interpreting technical requirements.
