Peer reviewed Estimation of Moisture Content in Paper Pulp Containing Calcium Carbonate Using Fringing Field Impedance Spectroscopy
نویسنده
چکیده
Currently used methods for estimation of moisture content in paper pulp are restricted to levels of moisture concentration under 90%, and also assume that there are no additives in the pulp. This paper presents a technique that uses fringing field interdigital sensors to measure moisture concentration in paper pulp in the presence of calcium carbonate. The method proposed in this paper uses singlesided measurements, offers high sensitivity, and does not require special operating conditions. A self-adapting algorithm used for data extraction is also introduced. The accuracy of the proposed method is also demonstrated.

Moisture Content Measurement in Paper Pulp Using Fringing Field Dielectrometry
Currently used methods for estimation of moisture content in paper pulp are restricted to levels of moisture concentration under 90%. Some of the existing methods require less practical double-sided contact measurements. A few other methods make restrictive assumptions, such as the constituents of the pulp that determine its conductance. This paper presents a technique that uses fringing field ...
متن کاملMeasuring moisture, fiber, and titanium dioxide in pulp with impedance spectroscopy
In a new measurement technique, impedance spectroscopy is used with fringing electric field sensors to measure the concentration of moisture, fiber, and titanium dioxide in pulp. This method can be integrated into a paper machine without disrupting the manufacturing process because the measurements are taken without contacting the pulp. Experimental results show consistent accuracy is when the ...

The cycling performance and SEI composition of Si nano-particle anodes in electrolytes containing 5–25 wt% fluoroethyelene carbonate (FEC) and 3–6 wt% vinylene carbonate (VC) has been investigated by a combination of by electrochemical cycling, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, IR-ATR and XPS. The incorporation of FEC or VC changes the cycling performance, impedance, electrode morphology,...
متن کاملThe Behavior of Carbon Steel in Artificial Cooling Water in Presence of Hydroxyphosphonoacetic Acid and Different Oxygen Content Using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
This paper presents the results of the interfacial evolution of 1018 steel exposed to artificial cooling water in presence of two different environments: the oxygen content and the 1,2-hydroxyphosphonoacetic acid (HPA). The aerated solution in presence of HPA supported two processes; the first was the sequestration of calcium ions with the subsequent complexation of the calcium carbonate (CaCO3...
متن کاملEstimation of Internal Friction angle for Carbonate Soils of the Southern Iranian Coasts
Abstract: The present work is conducted to investigate the effect of texture and carbonate content on internal friction angle of carbonate soils. Carbonate soils are majorly found in the bed of shallow waters and also offshores in tropical regions. Recently there is a huge construction projects including oil and gas extraction platform and facilities, harbors, refineries, huge bridges and ot...
