2.

2. The capacity of a certain filtering equipment is defined as the volume of the filtrate (V) per
total time per run. The total time of run is
t = tf + tw + tc
where tis the total time per run
tf is the filtration time
tw is the washing time, normally 1/5 of tf
t, is the assembling and dismantling time, constant at 7 hrs
per run
The volume of the filtrate (V;) is a function of tf, is given by:
Vf = 150/tf + 0.15
Find the maximum capacity of the filtering equipment with respect to the filtration
time tr.
