Question

A constant pressure filtration test gave data that can fit an expression, dt/dV = 9.3V + 8.5 ; (t in seconds; V in litres). If the resistance of the filter medium is assumed unaffected with pressure drop and the compressibility coefficient of the filter cake is 0.3, what will be the time taken for the collection of 3.5 litres of filtrate at a filtration pressure twice that used in the test?

Step 1

From the given information, we know that the expression for the filtration rate is dt/dV = 9.3V + 8.5. This means that the filtration rate is directly proportional to the volume of filtrate collected (V) and there is a constant term of 8.5. Show more…
