Water Quality Particulate Testing with a VIEW
Unlike traditional particle counting, which only provides information on particle size, dynamic image analysis provides detailed data on both particle size and shape. This allows for better identification of specific types of particles (e.g., fibrous, spherical, irregular), which can help in distinguishing between organic matter, sediment, or chemical precipitates.

The ASTM D7596-14 (ASTM, 2018) was designed as a guide for the determination of particle concentration, particle size distribution, particle shape, and soot content for new and in service oils used for lubrication and hydraulic systems using a direct imaging integrated tester.
Particle Size and Shape of Petroleum Lost Circulation Material – #1
Lost Circulation Material (LCM) is an additive introduced to drilling fluid that can come in all different shapes and sizes. It is well understood that irregular particles have greater thickening and strength properties. As a result, analyzing size alone for selection of LCM materials would not be ideal. In this case, shape measurements such as Circularity and Smoothness as well as size, are key measurement parameters to monitor.
