puremakohde

Puremakohde is a term that may be encountered in Finnish-language technical writing as a compound noun formed from kohde, meaning “target” or “object,” and a stem related to purification. The term is not widely defined in standard dictionaries, and its precise meaning depends on context.

In environmental science or process engineering, puremakohde can denote the primary target for purification, treatment, or remediation—i.e., the contaminant or component that is intended to be removed or neutralized. In data quality or laboratory practice, it may refer to the primary sample or data stream that should remain pure or be kept free of contamination during processing.

Common features:

- It is a high-level designation for the principal target in a cleaning or purification operation.

- The scope is defined by remediation or analysis goals, not by fixed technical standards.

- Usage can vary by discipline and author.

History:

The term has appeared occasionally in Finnish academic and industry texts since the late 20th century, but it has no formal universal definition.
