"Less of Water" Term

What does "less of water" mean? We have powder adhesive material for ceramic tiles. We sent it to the lab to determine the VOC content. Is the result we got from the lab considered less water as long as the tested sample was powder? For determining the volume by liter of the same material for VOC Budget Calculation, 30 kg of the powder + 6 liter of water gives 19.4 liter of the product in liquid shape. does the volume I will use in the calculation equal 13.4 liter (19.4 - 6) to be less water? or I should use the whole volume, 19.4 liter? I appreciate you clear my confusion. Thanks

Abdulrahman, "less of water" is defined in Rule 1168—see Resources above.Basically means that the weight of water doesn't count in the calculations.
