SQL Server (2008) is using 92% of the memory. out of 56 GB SQL using 51.6 GB
How to find out memory consuption for each process, is there any other memory consumers outside of the buffer tool
thanks

Firstly, that's entirely normal.
If you want to reduce SQL's memory usage, set max server memory to a sensible value. If you leave it at default, you're telling SQL that it can use every bit of the memory on the server.

You should put forward your issue in more details.
If you meant that your SQL Server cannot use all memory on the server, you can check memory consumption in windows task manager or performance monitor. This is if your SQL Server memory usage is not limited through "max server memory option".

Do you mean MemUsage indicator per process as in sp_who2's CPUTime and DiskIO?
I found this
article
on MSDN.
