Abstract: A measuring part measures the amount of matter dispersed in a suspension on the basis of a measurement, in which electromagnetic radiation interacts with the suspension, and the proportional volume of a free gas contained in the suspension on the basis of a measurement of electrical conductivity and/or impedance distribution for determining the amount of dispersed solid matter in the suspension.

Abstract: Properties of an end product, such as paper, paperboard or board, are important for the user of the end product. To be able to manufacture an end product of desired quality, it is important to know what kind of paper pulp used for manufacturing the end product results in a particular kind of property of the end product. Embodiments provide a method and an apparatus for generating a model, which model connects at least one property of the end product with at least one property of the paper pulp. On the basis of the model, also the manufacturing process can be controlled.

Abstract: A measurement device measures a liquid flow discharged from a funnel in a lower branch and/or a side branch. A modelling function is established between liquid flows received with the funnel and/or liquid flows discharged through the lower branch and/or the side branch. In drainability measurement, a sensor measures the flow through a wire out of a measurement chamber at least at two points in time. A processor establishes a parameter descriptive of the drainability from flows measured at the different points in time based on a modelling function stored in a memory.

Abstract: The non-destructive method is for measurement of recycled pulp or pulp immersed in suspension that enables real-time or on-line evaluation of particles in recycled pulp or pulp, especially for evaluation of particles including inks contained in recycled or de-inked pulp for their characteristics related to sizes, shapes, areas, amount, concentration, absorption coefficients, spectral characteristics such as color locus (L*, a*, b* values) and parameters, which are equivalent to an effective residual ink content (ERIC) or the ink elimination (IE) or detachment (ID), but independent of the size distribution of inks. The method can additionally be used for real-time or on-line recognizing inks from the other particles and distinguishing inks, which are already detached from or still attached to fibers and identification of the pulp fibers and fiber-based particles in recycled pulp or pulp from the non-fiber particles.
