Problem 8. 5-12. An 800-lb tank of chlorine is stored at a water treatment plant. A study of the release sce- narios indicates that the entire tank contents could be released as vapor in a period of 10 min. For chlorine gas, evacuation of the population must occur for areas where the va- por concentration exceeds the ERPG-1. Without any additional information, estimate the distance downwind that must be evacuated.

Calculate the rate of production of filtrate and the thickness of cake when it rotates at 0.0083 Hz, if the filter cake is incompressible and the filter cloth has a resistance equal to that of 1 mm of cake. It is desired to increase the rate of filtration by raising the speed of rotation of the drum. If the thinnest cake that can be removed from the drum has a thickness of 5 mm, what is the maximum rate of filtration which can be achieved and what speed of rotation of the drum is required? The voidage of the cake = 0.4, the specific resistance of cake = 2 x 10¹2 m-2 the density of solids = 2000 kg/m³, the density of filtrate = 1000 kg/m³, the viscosity of filtrate= 10-3 N s/m² and the slurry concentration = 20 per cent by mass solids.
A gravity settling tank is to be used to clean waste water from an oil refinery. The waste watercontains 1% by volume of oil droplets ranging in size from 100 to 1000 microns which will beremoved from the water before the latter is discharged to a nearby river. The tank is ofrectangular section 2 ft wide and 4 ft deep with provisions for smooth continuous discharge ifclean water and skimming off of oil at the surface of the discharge end. If 10,000 gallons perminute of waste water is to be cleaned of oil droplets, specific gravity of oil is 0.87. Calculate therequired length of the settling tank.

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.

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
