Answer:
5.118 m^3/hr
Explanation:
Given data:
viscosity of cell broth = 5cP
cake resistance = 1*1011 cm/g
dry basis per volume of filtrate = 20 g/liter
Diameter = 8m , Length = 12m
vacuum pressure = 80 kpa
cake formation time = 20 s
cycle time = 60 s
<u>Determine the filtration rate in volumes/hr expected fir the rotary vacuum filter</u>
attached below is a detailed solution of the question
Hence The filtration rate in volumes/hr expected for the rotary vacuum filter
V' = ( ) * 1706.0670
= 5118.201 liters ≈ 5.118 m^3/hr
