An electrostatic precipitator (ESP) is currently used to remove fly ash from a stream of 100 m³/s flue gas with 95% efficiency based on mixed flow (turbulent) model. Each collection plate is 3.5 m. tall and 8.0 m. long. The drift velocity of fly ash is 0.25 m/s. The flue gas velocity passing through the ESP unit is 2 m/s. The width of this ESP unit (normal to the gas flow) is 10 m. Determine the followings. a) Total plate surface area b) Total number of plates in the ESP unit c) Plate spacing (distance between the adjacent plates)
A settling chamber is to be used to collect particles with a density of 1200 kg/m3 from an air stream at 1.013 bars and 350 degrees kelvin. The volume flow rate is 2 m3/s.

The shake-deflate baghouse on the power plant has 12 compartments, each with 100 bags (cylindrical) that are 0.2 meter in diameter and 7 meter long. Total gas flowrate is 300,000 m3/h which carries 60 g/m3 of particulate matter concentration. The pressure drop of a freshly cleaned baghouse is found to be 250 Pa, while the bags are operated until the pressure drop of 750 Pa. The cleaning frequency is twice per hour. The particle collection efficiency is 95%, and filter

Assume E.Colli concentration is 5X107 per 100 ml, considering these assumptions answer the following questions: Y=4 (i) Select best pond system arrangement. (ii) Design the ponds and determine their volume, surface area and depth, as well as removal efficiency of each pond and effluent BODS concentration.
A full scale agitation system that has a flat blade turbine impeller with six blade-disk is used in a mixing operation. The (Da/W) and (D/J) values are 5 and 12, respectively. The liquid level is equal to the tank diameter. The liquid in the agitator has a viscosity of 85 cp and a density of 65.5 lb/ft³. The Reynolds number for the agitator is 10,000 and the agitator requires a power of 1 kW. It is desired to scale down the system for a vessel whose production volume is 4 times smaller than the original full scale agitation system. Assume mass transfer similarity for the scale down process. Calculate the power requirement in kW for the scaled down tank. Problem 2. 4

An ESP was designed to treat 5500 m3/mm of flue gas from a coal combustion unit and achieve a 98,5% PM removal efficiency. A certain drift velocity was assumed. The unit was built with exactly the collect ion. area called for in the design, but by the time the unit was started up, the actual flow rate had increased to 5900 m3/min, and the actual efficiency was really 98,5%,. Was the actual drift velocity the same as had been assumed? Prove your answer mathematically.
