Concentration Adjustment at 55% lab-measured concentration: a worked example

This scenario runs the concentration adjustment calculation on the strong side: 55% lab-measured concentration, with every other input held at its documented default. checking whether a batch concentration, solids content, or active level meets target

The inputs for this scenario

  • Lab-measured concentration: 55 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 47.5)
  • Assay or density correction factor: 1.03 x (unchanged)
  • Target (spec) concentration: 50 % (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Adjusted concentration = measured concentration × correction factor) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 56.65 % for adjusted concentration, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 6.65 value for concentration gap to target.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 55 value for measured concentration.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 1.03 x for assay or density correction factor.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where lab-measured concentration sits at 47.5% and the headline result is 48.93 %, this scenario comes in 15.79% above the baseline at 56.65 %.
  • Use it when adjusting an in-process blend after a lab check, or verifying a batch against spec before release. Treat this as a target state: the delta against the baseline quantifies what the improvement is worth before you commit to chasing it.
