Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial
English term or phrase: bone dry (b.d.)
Sto traducendo un testo su pompe e incontro spesso la sigla b.d. (bone dry).
Ho capito il significato di bone dry (asciuttissimo, perfettamente asciutto), ma non so se in campo tecnico vada tradotto, e se sì, come.

Contesto: http://www.directindustry.it/prod/goulds-pumps/pompe-centrif...

Esempi:
1) Pulp suspensions up to a consistency of 16% b.d. and all types of viscous media
2) They pump suspensions with consistencies up to 8% b.d.

Nota: quando si parla di "pulp" ci si riferisce alla cellulosa dell'industria cartaria.

Explanation:
Non mi sembra che si trattai di "secco assoluto", dato che hanno un contenuto di umidità residuo del 16% e 8%
