1. The CaCO3 slurry is to be filtered in a filter press having 0.05 m2 area at a constant pressure of 400 kPa. The filtration equation was found to be; t = (8 x 106)V + 5000 V t; sec, V; m³, -AP=kPa Calculate the time needed to get 10 m3 filtrate for the same slurry and filter material, if the area of filter is 2 m? at a constant pressure of 200 kPa. (The specific resistance of filter is independent of pressure)

of 400 kPa. The filtration equation was found to be;
= (8 × 106) + 5000
V
t; sec, V; m³, -AP=kPa
Calculate the time needed to get 10 m3 filtrate for the same slurry and filter material, if the
area of filter is 2 m? at a constant pressure of 200 kPa. (The specific resistance of filter is
independent of pressure)

2. An ultrafiltration system is being used to concentrate whey containing 0.5 wt% protein using
a pressure difference 0.8 atm. The density of permeate is 998 kg/m3 and mass transfer
coefficient through the membrane is 5x10-6 m/s. Concentration polarization ratio is 1.3.
Calculate the area of the membrane if the flow rate of permeate is 0.5 L/min.
