To make an instant tomato soup, a company makes soup powder from liquid step by a two-step process: concentrating the soup by removing water using a membrane to reach a concentration of 50% water, followed by a spray drying process which leads to a final moisture content of 4.0%. If the initial liquid tomato soup contains 10.5% solids and fat and enters the membrane separator at 4000 kg/hr, calculate: The flow-rate of the concentrated soup after membrane separation:

Transcribed Image Text:To make an instant tomato soup, a company makes soup powder from liquid step
by a two-step process: concentrating the soup by removing water using a
membrane to reach a concentration of 50% water, followed by a spray drying
process which leads to a final moisture content of 4.0%.
If the initial liquid tomato soup contains 10.5% solids and fat and enters the
membrane separator at 4000 kg/hr, calculate:
840
The flow-rate of the concentrated soup after membrane separation:
kg/hr
Your last answer was interpreted as follows: 840
The flow-rate of water removed by the spray drying process (the second stage):
3160
kg/hr
Your last answer was interpreted as follows: 3160
Correct answer, well done.
