Example 3: The following relation between specific resistance and pressure drop has been determined:
This relation is valid over a pressure range of . A slurry of this material yielding of cake solid per cubic filtrate is to be filtered at a constant pressure drop of 70 . The resistance of filter per ft. Determine square feet of the filter surface area required to give gal of filtrate in a 1-hr-filtration?
