Question

A pilot-scale filter press having an area of 0.0414 m2 is used to filter aqueous BaCO3 slurry at a constant pressure of 267 kPa. The filtration equation obtained was t/ - 10.25 x 10^6V + 3.4 x 10^3, where t is in seconds, vis in m3. 28. How long will it take to obtain 15 L of filtrate using the experimentai filter press? a. 17 min c. 32 min b. 25 min d. 40 min 29. If the same slurry and conditions are used in a leaf filter press with A = 6.97 m2, how long will it take to obtain 1 m3 of filtrate? a. 6 min c. 15 min b. 9 min d. 51 min 30. How much filtrate will be obtained after running the leaf filter press for a total of 30 minutes? a. 1.6 m3 c. 3.5 m3 b. 2.2 m3 d. 4.8 m3
