1. Prediction of filtration Time and Washing Time. The Slurry used in Problem 14.

2-1 is to be filtered
in a plate-and-frame press having 30 frames and 0.873 m²area per frame. The same pressure 46.2
kN/m², will be used in constands-pressure filtration. Assume the same filter-cake properties and filter
cloth, and calculate the time to recover 2.26 m³ of filtrate. At the end, using through-washing and
0.283 m³ of wash water , calculate the time of washing and the total filter-cycle time if cleaning the
press takes 30 min.

Answer :
2. Constant pressure filtration and washing in a leaf filter. An experimental filter press having
an area of 0.0414 m2 (R1) is used to filter an aqueous BaCO3 slurry at a constant pressure of
267 kPa. The filtration equation obtained was

t
= 10.25 x 106V + 3.4 x 103
V

Where t is in s and in m3 .

a) If the same slurry and conditions are used in a leaf press having an area of 6.97 m2,
how long will it take to obtain 1.00 m3 of filtrate?
b) After the filtration the cake is to be washed with 0.100 m3 of water. Calculate the time
of washing.
