Bound Moisture Content based on Weight of Bound Moisture Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Bound Moisture Content = Bound Weight of Moisture/Dry Weight of Solid
X_b = M_b/W_S
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Bound Moisture Content - The Bound Moisture Content is defined as the ratio of the weight of moisture exerting vapour pressure less than that of pure water at the same temperature to the weight of dry solid.
Bound Weight of Moisture - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Bound Weight of Moisture is the amount of moisture in kg present in the wet solid which exerts a vapor pressure less than that of pure water for the system.
Dry Weight of Solid - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Dry Weight of Solid is the weight of dry solid present in the system in the drying mass transfer operation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Bound Weight of Moisture: 6 Kilogram --> 6 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Dry Weight of Solid: 100 Kilogram --> 100 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

X_b = M_b/W_S --> 6/100

Evaluating ... ...

X_b = 0.06

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.06 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.06 <-- Bound Moisture Content

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Bound Moisture?

Bound moisture content refers to the water molecules that are chemically bound to a material, and cannot be removed through simple drying techniques. This moisture is usually tightly held within the structure of the material, and it requires specific methods for its removal, such as chemical or thermal treatment. Bound moisture is typically found in materials that have a high affinity for water, such as cellulose or starch.

How to Calculate Bound Moisture Content based on Weight of Bound Moisture?
