COUNCIL IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 655/2011

of 28 June 2011

terminating the anti-dumping measures applicable to imports of coumarin originating in the People’s Republic of China

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 of 30 November 2009 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1) (‘the basic Regulation’) and in particular Articles 9 and 11(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal submitted by the European Commission after having consulted the Advisory Committee,

Whereas:

1. PROCEDURE

1.1. Measures in force

(1)

The measures currently in force are a definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No 654/2008 (2) on imports of coumarin originating in the People’s Republic of China, as extended to imports of coumarin consigned from India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, whether declared as originating in India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia or not, and an undertaking accepted from one Indian producer (Atlas Fine Chemicals Pvt. Ltd) (3).

1.2. Grounds for the review

(2)	The Commission was informed that the sole producer of coumarin, which constituted the Union industry in the investigation which led to the imposition of the existing measures, decided to discontinue production of coumarin within the Union at the end of August 2010.

1.3. Initiation

(3)

Accordingly, the Commission, after consultation of the Advisory Committee, initiated, by a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union (4), a partial interim review limited to injury aspects of the anti-dumping measures applicable to imports of coumarin originating in the People’s Republic of China, as extended to imports of coumarin consigned from India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, whether declared as originating in India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia or not.

(4)

The Commission advised officially the Union producers and the representatives of the People’s Republic of China of the initiation of the review investigation. Interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing within the time limit set in the notice of initiation.

1.4. Product under review

(5)	The product under review is coumarin, originating in the People’s Republic of China, currently falling within CN code ex 2932 21 00 (‘the product concerned’).

2. FINDINGS AND TERMINATION OF THE PROCEEDING

(6)	The investigation has confirmed that the only Union producer of the product concerned has permanently closed its production facility in August 2010.

(7)

The Commission considers that the present proceeding should be terminated since the review investigation has not brought to light any considerations showing that such termination would not be in the Union interest. Interested parties were informed accordingly and were given the opportunity to comment. No comments were received indicating that such termination would not be in the Union interest.

(8)	The Commission therefore concludes that the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of the the product concerned into the Union should be terminated,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The anti-dumping measures concerning imports of coumarin currently falling within CN code ex 2932 21 00 and originating in the People’s Republic of China, as extended to imports consigned from India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, whether declared as originating in India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia or not, are hereby repealed and the proceeding concerning these imports is terminated.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 656/2011

of 7 July 2011

implementing Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning statistics on pesticides, as regards definitions and list of active substances

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2009 concerning statistics on pesticides (1), and in particular Article 5(2) and 5(3),

Whereas:

(1)	Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 establishes a new framework for the production of comparable European statistics on pesticide sales and use.

(2)

In accordance with Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009, it is necessary to adopt the definition of the term ‘area treated’ referred to in Section 2 of Annex II to the said Regulation, as it should be understood and applied in a uniform manner throughout the Union in the interests of comparability.

(3)

In accordance with Article 5(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009, the Commission should adapt, on a regular basis and at least every five years, the list of substances to be covered and their classification in categories of products and chemical classes as set out in Annex III. It is necessary to update the list annexed to the said Regulation, as it was last updated in 2006, to cover the period 2010 to 2015.

(4)

The number of substances and the complexity involved in identifying the right compounds and classification make it difficult for the national statistical authorities to build up properly the necessary tools for collecting the information on use and placing on the markets. Hence, only those substances that have been allocated an identification number by one or both of the two major, internationally recognised institutions for registering chemical compounds or pesticides Chemical Abstracts Service of the American Chemical Society (CAS) and Collaborative International Pesticides Analytical Council (CIPAC) should be included.

(5)	The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the European Statistical System Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The term ‘area treated’ referred to in Section 2 of Annex II of Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 means the basic area treated, defined as ‘the physical area of the crop treated at least once with a given active substance, independently of the number of applications’.

Article 2

Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 is replaced by the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 7 July 2011.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 657/2011

of 7 July 2011

amending Regulation (EU) No 297/2011 imposing special conditions governing the import of feed and food originating in or consigned from Japan following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53 (1) (b)(ii) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Article 53 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate Union emergency measures for food and feed imported from a third country in order to protect public health, animal health or the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually.

(2)

Following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station on 11 March 2011, the Commission was informed that radionuclide levels in certain food products originating in Japan such as milk and spinach exceeded the action levels in food applicable in Japan. Such contamination may constitute a threat to public and animal health in the Union and therefore Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 297/2011 imposing special conditions governing the import of feed and food originating in or consigned from Japan following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station (2) was adopted.

(3)

On 14 June 2011, the Commission was informed of the finding of a high level of radioactive caesium in green tea leaves, originating in the Shizuoka prefecture. That was confirmed on 15 June 2011 by five other findings of high level of radioactive caesium in green tea leaves from Shizuoka prefecture. That prefecture is not among the prefectures of the affected zone, where a testing of all feed and food originating from those prefectures is required before export to the Union. Given these recent findings it is appropriate to add Shizuoka prefecture to the affected zone.

(4)

A significant number of samples taken by the Japanese authorities from food produced in Niigata and Yamagata prefectures show that the production of feed and food in those prefectures is only to a very limited extent affected by the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station as none of the samples had non-compliant levels of radioactivity, nearly all samples had non-detectable levels of radioactivity and only in few samples low levels of radioactivity were detected. Therefore, it is appropriate to remove those prefectures from the zone, where a testing of all feed and food originating from those prefectures is required before export to the Union.

(5)	It is therefore appropriate to amend Regulation (EU) No 297/2011 accordingly, whilst keeping the date of applicability of the Regulation unchanged.

(6)	The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EU) No 297/2011 is amended as follows:

(1)

In Article 2, paragraphs 3 and 4 are replaced by the following:

‘3. Each consignment of the products referred to in Article 1, which leaves Japan from the date of entry into force of this Regulation, shall be accompanied by a declaration, attesting that:

(a)	the product has been harvested and/or processed before 11 March 2011, or

(b)	the product originates in and is consigned from a prefecture other than Fukushima, Gunma, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Miyagi, Nagano, Yamanashi, Saitama, Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa and Shizuoka, or

(c)	the product is consigned from Fukushima, Gunma, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Miyagi, Nagano, Yamanashi, Saitama, Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa and Shizuoka prefectures, but does not originate in one of those prefectures and has not been exposed to radioactivity during transiting, or

(d)

where a product originates in Fukushima, Gunma, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Miyagi, Nagano, Yamanashi, Saitama, Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa and Shizoka prefectures, the product does not contain levels of radionuclides iodine-131, caesium-134 and caesium-137 above the maximum levels provided for in Annex II to this Regulation. That provision applies also to products caught or harvested in the coastal waters of those prefectures, irrespective of where such products are landed.

4. The declaration, referred to in paragraph 3 and as set out in Annex I, shall be signed by an authorised representative of the competent authority of Japan. For the products referred to in point (d) of paragraph 3, the declaration shall be accompanied by an analytical report.’

(2)	Annex I is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

Entry into force

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 7 July 2011

amending Annexes II and III to Decision 2010/221/EU as regards the withdrawal of an eradication programme regarding bacterial kidney disease for the territory of Great Britain and the approval of a surveillance programme regarding ostreid herpesvirus 1 μνar for Guernsey

(notified under document C(2011) 4770)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2011/403/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Directive 2006/88/EC of 24 October 2006 on animal health requirements for aquaculture animals and products thereof, and on the prevention and control of certain diseases in aquatic animals (1), and in particular Article 43(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Decision 2010/221/EU of 15 April 2010 approving national measures for limiting the impact of certain diseases in aquaculture animals and wild aquatic animals in accordance with Article 43 of Council Directive 2006/88/EC (2) allows certain Member States to apply placing on the market and import restrictions on consignments of those animals in order to prevent the introduction of certain diseases into their territory, provided that they have either demonstrated that their territory, or certain demarcated areas of their territory, are free of such diseases or that they have established an eradication or surveillance programme to obtain such freedom.

(2)	Annex II to Decision 2010/221/EU currently lists the territory of Great Britain as an area of the United Kingdom with an approved eradication programme as regards bacterial kidney disease (BKD).

(3)

The United Kingdom has notified its intention to withdraw that eradication programme. Following an extensive reassessment of the measures taken by that Member State to control BKD in the territory of Great Britain, it was concluded that it is no longer appropriate to apply restrictions on movements of consignments of certain aquaculture animals into the United Kingdom as provided for by that programme. Consequently, the territory of Great Britain should be removed from the list of areas with approved eradication programmes for BKD as set out in Annex II to Decision 2010/221/EU.

(4)

Annex III to Decision 2010/221/EU currently lists parts of the territories of Great Britain and Northern Ireland as areas of the United Kingdom with approved surveillance programme as regards ostreid herpesvirus 1 μνar (OsHV-1 μνar). The United Kingdom has now submitted a surveillance programme as regards OsHV-1 μνar for Guernsey. That surveillance programme aims to demonstrate that the areas in Guernsey where OsHV-1 μνar has not been detected are free of that virus and to prevent its introduction into those areas. The content of that surveillance programme is equivalent to the surveillance programmes which are already approved and listed in Annex III to Decision 2010/221/EU.

(5)

There have been no detections of increased mortalities in the farms and relaying areas keeping Pacific oysters in Guernsey during the last 2 years. According to information submitted by the United Kingdom, Pacific oyster business operators have applied a voluntary ban on movements of pacific oysters into Guernsey since April 2010. That information suggests that Guernsey is free of OsHV-1 μνar. Movement restrictions to protect the health status of Pacific oysters in that territory should be approved.

(6)	The surveillance programme for Guernsey should therefore be approved and Guernsey should be included in the list set out in Annex III to Decision 2010/221/EU.

(7)	Decision 2010/221/EU should therefore be amended accordingly.

(8)	The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Annexes II and III to Decision 2010/221/EU are replaced by the text in the Annex to this Decision.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 7 July 2011

on a financial contribution from the Union towards emergency measures to combat avian influenza in Germany in November 2010

(notified under document C(2011) 4773)

(Only the German text is authentic)

(2011/404/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Decision 2009/470/EC of 25 May 2009 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)	Avian influenza is an infectious viral disease of poultry and other captive birds with a severe impact on the profitability of poultry farming causing disturbance to trade within the Union and export to third countries.

(2)	In the event of an outbreak of avian influenza, there is a risk that the disease agent spreads to other poultry holdings within that Member State, but also to other Member States and to third countries through trade in live poultry or their products.

(3)

Council Directive 2005/94/EC of 20 December 2005 on Community measures for the control of avian influenza and repealing Directive 92/40/EEC (2) sets out measures which in the event of an outbreak have to be immediately implemented by Member States as a matter of urgency to prevent further spread of the virus.

(4)

Decision 2009/470/EC lays down the procedures governing the financial contribution from the Union towards specific veterinary measures, including emergency measures. Pursuant to Article 4(2) of that Decision, Member States shall obtain a financial contribution towards the costs of certain measures to eradicate avian influenza.

(5)	Article 4(3), first and second indents of Decision 2009/470/EC lays down rules on the percentage of the costs incurred by the Member State that may be covered by the financial contribution from the Union.

(6)

The payment of a financial contribution from the Union towards emergency measures to eradicate avian influenza is subject to the rules laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 349/2005 of 28 February 2005 laying down rules on the Community financing of emergency measures and of the campaign to combat certain animal diseases under Council Decision 90/424/EEC (3).

(7)	Outbreaks of avian influenza occurred in Germany in November 2010. Germany took measures in accordance with Directive 2005/94/EC to combat those outbreaks.

(8)

The German authorities were able to demonstrate through reports provided in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and continuous submission of information on the development of the disease situation that they have efficiently implemented the control measures provided for in Directive 2005/94/EC leading to the rapid containment of the disease.

(9)	The German authorities have therefore fulfilled all their technical and administrative obligations with regard to the measures provided for in Article 4(2) of Decision 2009/470/EC and Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 349/2005.

(10)	The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Financial contribution from the Union to Germany

1. A financial contribution from the Union shall be granted to Germany towards the costs incurred by this Member State in taking measures pursuant to Article 4(2) and (3) of Decision 2009/470/EC, to combat avian influenza in Germany in November 2010.

2. The amount of the financial contribution mentioned in paragraph 1 shall be fixed in a subsequent decision to be adopted in accordance with the procedure established in Article 40(2) of Decision 2009/470/EC.

‘ANNEX 4C

PARTICLE NUMBER MEASUREMENT TEST PROCEDURE

1. Applicability

This Annex is not applicable for the purpose of type approval according to this Regulation for the time being. It will be made applicable in the future.

2. Introduction

2.1. This Annex describes the method of determining particle number emissions of engines being tested according to the test procedures defined in Annex 4B. Unless otherwise stated, all test conditions, procedures and requirements are as stated in Annex 4B.

3. Sampling

3.1. Particle number emissions

Particle number emissions shall be measured by continuous sampling from either a partial flow dilution system, as described in Annex 4B, Appendix 3, paragraph A.3.2.1 and A.3.2.2 or a full flow dilution system as described in Annex 4B, Appendix 3, paragraph A.3.2.3 and A.3.2.4.

3.2. Diluent filtration

Diluent used for both the primary and, where applicable, secondary dilution of the exhaust in the dilution system shall be passed through filters meeting the High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter requirements defined in the Diluent Filter (DAF) subparagraphs of Annex 4B, Appendix 3, paragraphs A.3.2.2 or A.3.2.4. The diluent may optionally be charcoal scrubbed before being passed to the HEPA filter to reduce and stabilise the hydrocarbon concentrations in the diluent. It is recommended that an additional coarse particle filter is situated before the HEPA filter and after the charcoal scrubber, if used.

4. Operation of the Sampling System

4.1. Compensating for particle number sample flow — full flow dilution systems

4.1.1. To compensate for the mass flow extracted from the dilution system for particle number sampling the extracted mass flow (filtered) shall be returned to the dilution system. Alternatively, the total mass flow in the dilution system may be mathematically corrected for the particle number sample flow extracted. Where the total mass flow extracted from the dilution system for particle number sampling is less than 0,5 % of the total dilute exhaust gas flow in the dilution tunnel (med) this correction, or flow return, may be neglected.

4.2. Compensating for particle number sample flow — partial flow dilution systems

4.2.1. For partial flow dilution systems the mass flow extracted from the dilution system for particle number sampling shall be accounted for in controlling the proportionality of sampling. This shall be achieved either by feeding the particle number sample flow back into the dilution system upstream of the flow measuring device or by mathematical correction as outlined in paragraph 4.2.2 In the case of total sampling type partial flow dilution systems, the mass flow extracted for particle number sampling shall also be corrected for in the particulate mass calculation as outlined in paragraph 4.2.3.

4.2.2. The instantaneous exhaust gas flow rate into the dilution system (qmp ), used for controlling the proportionality of sampling, shall be corrected according to one of the following methods;

(a)

In the case where the extracted particle number sample flow is discarded, equation (83) in Annex 4B, paragraph 9.4.6.2 shall be replaced by the following:

where:

qmp	=	sample flow of exhaust gas into partial flow dilution system, kg/s
qmdew	=	diluted exhaust mass flow rate, kg/s
qmdw	=	dilution air mass flow rate, kg/s
qex	=	particle number sample mass flow rate, kg/s

The qex signal sent to the partial flow system controller shall be accurate to within 0,1 % of qmdew at all times and should be sent with frequency of at least 1 Hz.

(b)

In the case where the extracted particle number sample flow is fully or partially discarded, but an equivalent flow is fed back to the dilution system upstream of the flow measurement device, equation (83) in Annex 4B, paragraph 9.4.6.2 shall be replaced by the following:

where:

qmp	=	sample flow of exhaust gas into partial flow dilution system, kg/s,
qmdew	=	diluted exhaust mass flow rate, kg/s,
qmdw	=	dilution air mass flow rate, kg/s,
qex	=	particle number sample mass flow rate, kg/s,
qsw	=	mass flow rate fed back into dilution tunnel to compensate for particle number sample extraction, kg/s.

The difference between qex and qsw sent to the partial flow system controller shall be accurate to within 0,1 % of qmdew at all times. The signal (or signals) should be sent with frequency of at least 1 Hz.

4.2.3. Correction of PM measurement

When a particle number sample flow is extracted from a total sampling partial flow dilution system, the mass of particulates (mPM ) calculated in Annex 4B, paragraph 8.4.3.2.1 or 8.4.3.2.2 shall be corrected as follows to account for the flow extracted. This correction is required even where filtered extracted flow is fed back into the partial flow dilution systems.

where:

mPM,corr	=	mass of particulates corrected for extraction of particle number sample flow, g/test,
mPM	=	mass of particulates determined according to Annex 4B paragraph 8.4.3.2.1 or 8.4.3.2.2, g/test,
msed	=	total mass of diluted exhaust gas passing through the dilution tunnel, kg,
mex	=	total mass of diluted exhaust gas extracted from the dilution tunnel for particle number sampling, kg.

4.3. Proportionality of partial flow dilution sampling

4.3.1. For particle number measurement, exhaust mass flow rate, determined according to any of the methods described in Annex 4B, paragraphs 8.4.1.3 to 8.4.1.7, is used for controlling the partial flow dilution system to take a sample proportional to the exhaust mass flow rate. The quality of proportionality shall be checked by applying a regression analysis between sample and exhaust flow in accordance with Annex 4B, paragraph 9.4.6.1.

5. Determination of Particle Numbers

5.1. Time alignment

For partial flow dilution systems residence time in the particle number sampling and measurement system shall be accounted for by time aligning the particle number signal with the test cycle and the exhaust gas mass flow rate according to the procedures defined in Annex 4B paragraphs 3.1.30 and 8.4.2.2. The transformation time of the particle number sampling and measurement system shall be determined according to paragraph 1.3.6 of Appendix to this Annex.

5.2. Determination of particle numbers with a partial flow dilution system

5.2.1. Where particle numbers are sampled using a partial flow dilution system according to the procedures set out in Annex 4B, paragraph 8.4, the number of particles emitted over the test cycle shall be calculated by means of the following equation:

where:

N	=	number of particles emitted over the test cycle,
medf	=	mass of equivalent diluted exhaust gas over the cycle, determined according to Annex 4B paragraph 8.4.3.2.2, kg/test,
k	=	calibration factor to correct the particle number counter measurements to the level of the reference instrument where this is not applied internally within the particle number counter. Where the calibration factor is applied internally within the particle number counter, a value of 1 shall be used for k in the above equation,
	=	average concentration of particles from the diluted exhaust gas corrected to standard conditions (273,2 K and 101,33 kPa), particles per cubic centimetre,
	=	mean particle concentration reduction factor of the volatile particle remover specific to the dilution settings used for the test.

shall be calculated from the following equation:

where:

cs,i	=	a discrete measurement of particle concentration in the diluted gas exhaust from the particle counter, corrected for coincidence and to standard conditions (273,2 K and 101,33 kPa), particles per cubic centimetre,
n	=	number of particle concentration measurements taken over the duration of the test.

5.3. Determination of particle numbers with a full flow dilution system

5.3.1. Where particle numbers are sampled using a full flow dilution system according to the procedures set out in Annex 4B, paragraph 8.5, the number of particles emitted over the test cycle shall be calculated by means of the following equation:

where:

N	=	number of particles emitted over the test cycle,
med	=	total diluted exhaust gas flow over the cycle calculated according to any one of the methods described in Annex 4B, paragraphs 8.5.1.2 to 8.5.1.4, kg/test,
k	=	calibration factor to correct the particle number counter measurements to the level of the reference instrument where this is not applied internally within the particle number counter. Where the calibration factor is applied internally within the particle number counter, a value of 1 shall be used for k in the above equation,
	=	average corrected concentration of particles from the diluted exhaust gas corrected to standard conditions (273,2 K and 101,33 kPa), particles per cubic centimetre,
	=	mean particle concentration reduction factor of the volatile particle remover specific to the dilution settings used for the test.

shall be calculated from the following equation:

where:

cs,i	=	a discrete measurement of particle concentration in the diluted gas exhaust from the particle counter, corrected for coincidence and to standard conditions (273,2 K and 101,33 kPa), particles per cubic centimetre,
n	=	number of particle concentration measurements taken over the duration of the test.

5.4. Test result

5.4.1. For each individual WHSC, hot WHTC and cold WHTC the specific emissions in number of particles/kWh shall be calculated as follows:

where:

e	=	is the number of particles emitted per kWh,
Wact	=	is the actual cycle work according to Annex 4B, paragraph 7.8.6, in kWh.

5.4.2. Exhaust after-treatment systems with periodic regeneration

For engines equipped with periodically regenerating aftertreatment systems the WHTC hot start emissions shall be weighted as follows:

where:

ew	=	is the weighted average hot start WHTC specific emission, number of particles/kWh,
n	=	is the number of WHTC hot start tests without regeneration,
nr	=	is the number of WHTC hot start tests with regeneration (minimum one test),
	=	is the average specific emission without regeneration, number of particles/kWh,
	=	is the average specific emission with regeneration, number of particles/kWh.

For the determination of

, the following provisions apply:

Particle Number Emissions Measurement Equipment

1. Specification

1.1. System overview

1.1.1. The particle sampling system shall consist of a probe or sampling point extracting a sample from a homogenously mixed flow in a dilution system as described in Annex 4B, Appendix 3, paragraph A3.2.1 and A.3.2.2 or A3.2.3 and A.3.2.4, a volatile particle remover (VPR) upstream of a particle number counter (PNC) and suitable transfer tubing.

1.1.2. It is recommended that a particle size pre-classifier (e.g. cyclone, impactor, etc.) be located prior to the inlet of the VPR. However, a sample probe acting as an appropriate size-classification device, such as that shown in Annex 4B, Appendix 3, Figure 14, is an acceptable alternative to the use of a particle size pre-classifier. In the case of partial flow dilution systems it is acceptable to use the same pre-classifier for particulate mass and particle number sampling, extracting the particle number sample from the dilution system downstream of the pre-classifier. Alternatively separate pre-classifiers may be used, extracting the particle number sample from the dilution system upstream of the particulate mass pre-classifier.

1.2. General requirements

1.2.1. The particle sampling point shall be located within a dilution system.

Schematic of Recommended Particle Sampling System – Full Flow Sampling

1.4.1. Sampling system description

The particle sampling system shall consist of a sampling probe tip or particle sampling point in the dilution system, a particle transfer tube (PTT), a particle pre-classifier (PCF) and a volatile particle remover (VPR) upstream of the particle number concentration measurement (PNC) unit. The VPR shall include devices for sample dilution (particle number diluters: PND1 and PND2) and particle evaporation (Evaporation tube, ET). The sampling probe or sampling point for the test gas flow shall be so arranged within the dilution tract that a representative sample gas flow is taken from a homogeneous diluent/exhaust mixture. The sum of the residence time of the system plus the t90 response time of the PNC shall be no greater than 20 s.

1.4.2. Particle transfer system

The sampling probe tip or particle sampling point and particle transfer tube (PTT) together comprise the particle transfer system (PTS). The PTS conducts the sample from the dilution tunnel to the entrance to the first particle number diluter. The PTS shall meet the following conditions:

In the case of partial flow dilution systems of the total sampling type (as described in Annex 4B, paragraph A.3.2.1) the particle sampling point shall be located in the particulate transfer tube, upstream of the particulate filter holder, flow measurement device and any sample/bypass bifurcation point. The sampling point or sampling probe shall be positioned so that the sample is taken from a homogeneous diluent/exhaust mixture.

Sample gas drawn through the PTS shall meet the following conditions:

It shall have a flow Reynolds number (Re) of < 1 700;

The outlet tube (OT) conducting the diluted sample from the VPR to the inlet of the PNC shall have the following properties:

It shall have an internal diameter of ≥ 4 mm;

Sample gas flow through the POT shall have a residence time of ≤ 0,8 seconds.

Any other sampling configuration for the OT for which equivalent particle penetration for particles of 30 nm electrical mobility diameter can be demonstrated will be considered acceptable.

1.4.3. Particle pre-classifier

The recommended particle pre-classifier shall be located upstream of the VPR. The pre-classifier 50 % cut point particle diameter shall be between 2,5 μm and 10 μm at the volumetric flow rate selected for sampling particle number emissions. The pre-classifier shall allow at least 99 % of the mass concentration of 1 μm particles entering the pre-classifier to pass through the exit of the pre-classifier at the volumetric flow rate selected for sampling particle number emissions. In the case of partial flow dilution systems, it is acceptable to use the same pre-classifier for particulate mass and particle number sampling, extracting the particle number sample from the dilution system downstream of the pre-classifier. Alternatively separate pre-classifiers may be used, extracting the particle number sample from the dilution system upstream of the particulate mass pre-classifier.

1.4.4. Volatile particle remover (VPR)

The VPR shall comprise one particle number diluter (PND1), an evaporation tube and a second diluter (PND2) in series. This dilution function is to reduce the number concentration of the sample entering the particle concentration measurement unit to less than the upper threshold of the single particle count mode of the PNC and to suppress nucleation within the sample. The VPR shall provide an indication of whether or not PND1 and the evaporation tube are at their correct operating temperatures.

The VPR shall achieve > 99,0 % vaporisation of 30 nm tetracontane (CH3(CH2)38CH3) particles, with an inlet concentration of ≥ 10 000 cm–3, by means of heating and reduction of partial pressures of the tetracontane. It shall also achieve a particle concentration reduction factor (fr) for particles of 30 nm and 50 nm electrical mobility diameters, that is no more than 30 % and 20 % respectively higher, and no more than 5 % lower than that for particles of 100 nm electrical mobility diameter for the VPR as a whole.

1.4.4.1. First particle number dilution device (PND1)

The diluter shall be supplied with HEPA filtered dilution air and be capable of maintaining a single dilution factor within a range of 10 to 30 times. The dilution factor of PND2 shall be selected in the range between 10 and 15 such that particle number concentration downstream of the second diluter is less than the upper threshold of the single particle count mode of the PNC and the gas temperature prior to entry to the PNC is < 35 °C.

1.4.5. Particle number counter (PNC)

The PNC shall meet the requirements of paragraph 1.3.4.

2. Calibration/Validation of the Particle Sampling System (2)

2.1. Calibration of the Particle Number Counter

2.1.1. The Technical Service shall ensure the existence of a calibration certificate for the PNC demonstrating compliance with a traceable standard within a 12-month period prior to the emissions test.

2.1.2. The PNC shall also be recalibrated and a new calibration certificate issued following any major maintenance.

2.1.3. Calibration shall be traceable to a standard calibration method:

(a)	by comparison of the response of the PNC under calibration with that of a calibrated aerosol electrometer when simultaneously sampling electrostatically classified calibration particles; or

(b)	by comparison of the response of the PNC under calibration with that of a second PNC which has been directly calibrated by the above method.

In the electrometer case, calibration shall be undertaken using at least six standard concentrations spaced as uniformly as possible across the PNC’s measurement range. These points will include a nominal zero concentration point produced by attaching HEPA filters of at least class H13 of EN 1822:2008, or equivalent performance, to the inlet of each instrument. With no calibration factor applied to the PNC under calibration, measured concentrations shall be within ± 10 % of the standard concentration for each concentration used, with the exception of the zero point, otherwise the PNC under calibration shall be rejected. The gradient from a linear regression of the two data sets shall be calculated and recorded. A calibration factor equal to the reciprocal of the gradient shall be applied to the PNC under calibration. Linearity of response is calculated as the square of the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient (R2) of the two data sets and shall be equal to or greater than 0,97. In calculating both the gradient and R2 the linear regression shall be forced through the origin (zero concentration on both instruments).

In the reference PNC case, calibration shall be undertaken using at least six standard concentrations across the PNC’s measurement range. At least 3 points shall be at concentrations below 1 000 cm–3, the remaining concentrations shall be linearly spaced between 1 000 cm–3 and the maximum of the PNC’s range in single particle count mode. These points will include a nominal zero concentration point produced by attaching HEPA filters of at least class H13 of EN 1822:2008, or equivalent performance, to the inlet of each instrument. With no calibration factor applied to the PNC under calibration, measured concentrations shall be within ± 10 % of the standard concentration for each concentration, with the exception of the zero point, otherwise the PNC under calibration shall be rejected. The gradient from a linear regression of the two data sets shall be calculated and recorded. A calibration factor equal to the reciprocal of the gradient shall be applied to the PNC under calibration. Linearity of response is calculated as the square of the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient (R2) of the two data sets and shall be equal to or greater than 0,97. In calculating both the gradient and R2 the linear regression shall be forced through the origin (zero concentration on both instruments).

2.1.4. Calibration shall also include a check, against the requirements in paragraph 1.3.4.8, on the PNC’s detection efficiency with particles of 23 nm electrical mobility diameter. A check of the counting efficiency with 41 nm particles is not required.

2.2. Calibration/Validation of the volatile particle remover

2.2.1. Calibration of the VPR’s particle concentration reduction factors across its full range of dilution settings, at the instrument’s fixed nominal operating temperatures, shall be required when the unit is new and following any major maintenance. The periodic validation requirement for the VPR’s particle concentration reduction factor is limited to a check at a single setting, typical of that used for measurement on diesel particulate filter equipped vehicles. The Technical Service shall ensure the existence of a calibration or validation certificate for the volatile particle remover within a 6-month period prior to the emissions test. If the volatile particle remover incorporates temperature monitoring alarms a 12 month validation interval shall be permissible.

The VPR shall be characterised for particle concentration reduction factor with solid particles of 30 nm, 50 nm and 100 nm electrical mobility diameter. Particle concentration reduction factors (fr(d)) for particles of 30 nm and 50 nm electrical mobility diameters shall be no more than 30 % and 20 % higher respectively, and no more than 5 % lower than that for particles of 100 nm electrical mobility diameter. For the purposes of validation, the mean particle concentration reduction factor shall be within ± 10 % of the mean particle concentration reduction factor (

) determined during the primary calibration of the VPR.

2.2.2. The test aerosol for these measurements shall be solid particles of 30, 50 and 100 nm electrical mobility diameter and a minimum concentration of 5 000 particles cm–3 at the VPR inlet. Particle concentrations shall be measured upstream and downstream of the components.

The particle concentration reduction factor at each particle size (fr(di)) shall be calculated as follows;

where:

Nin(di)	=	upstream particle number concentration for particles of diameter di;
Nout(di)	=	downstream particle number concentration for particles of diameter di; and
di	=	particle electrical mobility diameter (30, 50 or 100 nm).

Nin(di) and Nout(di) shall be corrected to the same conditions.

The mean particle concentration reduction (

) at a given dilution setting shall be calculated as follows;

It is recommended that the VPR is calibrated and validated as a complete unit.

2.2.3. The Technical Service shall ensure the existence of a validation certificate for the VPR demonstrating effective volatile particle removal efficiency within a 6 month period prior to the emissions test. If the volatile particle remover incorporates temperature monitoring alarms a 12 month validation interval shall be permissible. The VPR shall demonstrate greater than 99,0 % removal of tetracontane (CH3(CH2)38CH3) particles of at least 30 nm electrical mobility diameter with an inlet concentration of ≥ 10 000 cm–3 when operated at its minimum dilution setting and manufacturers recommended operating temperature.

2.3. Particle number system check procedures

2.3.1. Prior to each test, the particle counter shall report a measured concentration of less than 0,5 particles cm–3 when a HEPA filter of at least class H13 of EN 1822:2008, or equivalent performance, is attached to the inlet of the entire particle sampling system (VPR and PNC).

2.3.2. On a monthly basis, the flow into the particle counter shall report a measured value within 5 % of the particle counter nominal flow rate when checked with a calibrated flow meter.

2.3.3. Each day, following the application of a HEPA filter of at least class H13 of EN 1822:2008, or equivalent performance, to the inlet of the particle counter, the particle counter shall report a concentration of ≤ 0,2 cm–3. Upon removal of this filter, the particle counter shall show an increase in measured concentration to at least 100 particles cm–3 when challenged with ambient air and a return to ≤ 0,2 cm–3 on replacement of the HEPA filter.

2.3.4. Prior to the start of each test it shall be confirmed that the measurement system indicates that the evaporation tube, where featured in the system, has reached its correct operating temperature.

2.3.5. Prior to the start of each test it shall be confirmed that the measurement system indicates that the diluter PND1 has reached its correct operating temperature.
