TASK 1:
A suspension is divided in two different aliquots containing 24 mL of solvent phase. Each
aliquot is filtered under constant pressure conditions using different filtration conditions: slurry
A is filtered using a pressure drop of 200 mbar, while slurry B is filtered using a pressure drop
of 700 mbar. The diameter of the Nutsche filter is 27 mm.
The slurry comprises ethanol (solvent density 0.789 g/cm³ and dynamic viscosity 1.095 CP)
and spherical particles. Volume of cake formed by the passage of unit volume of filtrate is
equal to 3. Filtration flow rate and time/volume of filtrate versus volume of filtrate removed
during filtration for the two slurries are reported in the tables below.
