material to be burnt off. Check industry standards for the maximum temperature
suitable for the material.
18. Carefully break up any lumps of material using a metal spoon. Do not allow any
material to be lost from the bowl or to stick to the spoon. Only break up lumps once
the material surface is dry.
19. Re-heat the material in the microwave for another five minutes. Weigh the material
and record the result.
625.00 g
20. Continue to re-heat and weigh the material until the weight remains constant between
two heating cycles. This indicates that the material is fully dry.
21. Repeat steps
13-29
for two more samples taken from the collected material.
Note: If using a conventional oven instead of a microwave the same procedure
can be followed except the time required to heat the material must be increased
accordingly. All three samples can be dried at the same time to speed up the
process.
Specialist moisture analysis equipment can be used to perform the moisture
testing, please follow any associated instructions for the specific machine.
22. Calculate the moisture % of the three sub-samples using the following equation:
𝑀𝑀𝐵𝑢𝑀𝑢𝐵𝑒
% (
𝐷𝐵𝐷
𝑤𝑒𝐵𝑤ℎ𝑀
) =
(
𝐵 − 𝐶
)
(
𝐶 − 𝐴
)
𝐵
100
Where A = Weight of the empty bowl
B = Weight of the bowl and wet material
C = Weight of the bowl and the dry material
In the above example the moisture % calculated as:
𝑀𝑀𝐵𝑢𝑀𝑢𝐵𝑒
% (
𝐷𝐵𝐷
𝑤𝑒𝐵𝑤ℎ𝑀
) =
(650
−
625)
(625
−
150)
𝐵
100
𝑀𝑀𝐵𝑢𝑀𝑢𝐵𝑒
% (
𝐷𝐵𝐷
𝑤𝑒𝐵𝑤ℎ𝑀
) =

475
𝐵
100
𝑀𝑀𝐵𝑢𝑀𝑢𝐵𝑒
% (
𝐷𝐵𝐷
𝑤𝑒𝐵𝑤ℎ𝑀
) = 5.26%
