CONSISTENCY (CONCENTRATION) OF PULP SUSPENSIONS

• Describes the measurement of pulp consistency (concentration) of aqueous fiber suspensions.
• Applies to most pulps sampled from different process points in a pulp or paper mill.
• Method is applicable to pulps with up to 25% consistency.
• Known weight of pulp suspension is filtered in a Büchner funnel.
• Determination of pulp consistency is the starting point for the quantitative analysis.
• Provides the basis for mass balance and yield evaluation in a pulp and paper mill.
