Question: In this experiment, filter area was 440 cm2, the mass of solid per unit volume filtrate was 23.5 g/l, and the temperature of 25 oC. a) Evaluate α and Rm as a function of pressure drop and fit an empirical equation to the result for α. NOTE: Table one has given in the image section
Situation: Cake filtration is important in many processes. However, the analysis and design of filtration operations is still largely dependent on heuristics and experimentation. In industry, constant rate filtration (CRF) and constant pressure filtration (CPF) are widely used. In this study, the constant pressure drop are applied to study the efficient of new filtration process. The laboratory filtration process are conducted at constant pressure drop on a slurry of calcium carbonate in water give the data shown in Table 1.
