Black Liquor Application
Black Liquor Application
(OP)
I have been doing some research on black liquor and can't seem to find any thermal properties. The only thing I've come across is the vicosity (3 CP @ 185 F). Is there a website to use for reference when the thermal properties of a substance is needed?

Black Liquor is a byproduct of the pulp/paper industry, and is used as a fuel in recovery boilers.
Snapz,
You might check with Babcock & Wilcox. They might have properties on black liquor.

I saw one figure of ~6,000 btu/lb of the solids. I'm not sure how useful that number itself is to you but I'd look at the book anyway. The book itself is fairly cheap and can be bought through their webpage.
