The present invention provides an improvement to the two, inaccurate, traditional approaches relating concentration to density. The first of these assumes that the solute is completely insoluble in the solvent; the second is based on a soluble solute. The present improved relationship is referred to as the CONCENTRATION-DENSITY MODEL. This model allows for a theoretical determination of the concentration-density relationship for a multi-component solid/liquid or liquid/liquid mixture. Included in the Concentration-Density Model is a new concept referred to as ADDITIVE VOLUME COEFFICIENT (AVC). This concept compensates for the fact that the net volume of a mixture does not always equal the sum of the volumes of each component. This improved Concentration-Density Model provides fluid-handling manufacturers with a method for accurately determining a mixture's concentration on-line with the aid of current density measurement instrumentation. By allowing for accurate concentration determination in manufacturing scenarios where such measures were previously impractical, the present invention enables improved control of the manufacturing process.
