Below is a flowsheet for a crystallization process. A hot solution of water and a substance A enters the cooler (Stream 1 contains A and water). At the cooler, some of the water is removed (Stream 2 contains only water) and the rest (called "slurry") enters a filter (stream 3 contains A and water). At the filter, wet crystals are collected (Stream 4 contains A and water), while a solution of water and A leaves in stream 5. It is known that: 50 kg of hot solution enter the process with 32 wt% of A • 3 kg of water is removed from the cooler (Stream 2) • The final cold solution is 42 kg Determine the degrees of freedom in the filter.
