Liquid extraction quotient

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

LXQ (Liquid eXtraction Quotient) is a unit that defines the properties of a solid-liquid coagulation, specifically measuring the energy required to separate no less than 90% of the solid from the liquid, per 1 newtonian unit of mass. The precise details of this method is the commercially sensitive property of Monsanto Company; they have not released any technical information to the wider scientific community.

According to Monsanto, LXQ is used in the research and development of effective new spill-proof delivery devices for certain types of chemicals and pesticides.
