Abstract: Estimating or predicting runnability or end product quality risk level for a pulp or papermaking process is disclosed. The method includes measuring hydrophobicity values of samples originating from a same aqueous process stream. A hydrophobicity measurement signal is produced of measured hydrophobicity values as a function of time. A risk level is calculated for the process. At least one mathematical index is calculated based on the hydrophobicity measurement signal, and optionally based on the amount of particles in the sample, other property of the aqueous stream and/or production data. The mathematical index and optionally the amount of the particles, other property, and/or production data is used as a risk indicator input in the calculation. Based on the risk level calculated for the pulp or papermaking process, the runnability and/or end product quality risk level for the pulp or papermaking process is indicated.

Abstract: A method for monitoring hydrophobic particles contained in a pulp suspension, includes obtaining a sample from a pulp suspension or a filtrate of the pulp suspension. A fluorescent dye is added to the sample to stain particles in the sample. The sample is fractionated to obtain at least a first fraction and a second fraction, wherein the second fraction is a fiber fraction. The method includes for the obtained fractions, fluorescence emitted by the particles in the fractions, calculating an integral of the fluorescence measured for the fractions excluding the fiber fraction, and correlating the calculated integral of the fluorescence to the amount of acetone soluble material in the pulp suspension, and optionally measuring light scattering signal of the particles in at least first and second fractions.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and system for analyzing a liquid sample containing solid matter. The method comprises fractionating the sample according to particle sizes and/or masses of the solid matter so as to produce sample fractions, and measuring at least one physical or chemical property of at least one of said sample fractions. According to the invention the sample is conducted to a disintegration channel having one or more depressions, and a liquid flow having a non-constant temporal velocity profile is applied through the disintegration channel, in order to gradually take solid matter of the sample with the liquid flow from said one or more depressions for providing said sample fractions. The invention allows for efficient fractionation of samples, which cannot be fractionated using conventional field flow fractionation, for example.
