Description

Calorific value analysis measures the energy released during the complete combustion of a sample. A distinction is made between net calorific value (NCV), which excludes the latent heat of vaporization of water, and gross calorific value (GCV), which includes it. These measurements are essential for assessing the energy performance of solid, liquid, or gaseous fuels such as biomass, waste, fuels, industrial residues, or agricultural raw materials. The analysis is generally carried out using a bomb calorimeter in accordance with ISO or ASTM standards. It is used to optimize combustion processes, select raw materials, or ensure compliance with specifications.

At YesWeLab, we collaborate with a carefully selected network of laboratories, most of which are certified and/or accredited (ISO 17025, COFRAC, etc.). These laboratories are chosen based on your specific needs, the matrices to be analyzed, and the required analytical techniques or methods.
