what is difference between moisture contents and water contents ?

Answer Posted / jörgen held

The moisture content of a solid is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the dry solid.
The water content is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the wet solid.
Take biomass as an example. If 1 kg wet biomass consists of 0.7 kg biomass and 0.3 kg of water the moisture content is 0.3/0.7 = 0.42857 but the water content is 0.3.
