The document contains 4 problems related to filtration systems. Problem 1 asks for the time required to reach 50 psi pressure if filtering at 10 L/s. Problem 2 asks for the total cycle time given information about constant rate and pressure differential times as well as cake removal time. Problem 3 asks for the total filtration time if 1/4 of filtrate is collected during constant rate period. Problem 4 asks for the estimated filter area given information about filtrate production rates and total production.

92. The constant pressure (38.7 psia.
) filtration equation for filtration system is
t / V = 9.05 x 10−5 V + 0.01, sec/L
If the slurry is filtered at constant rate of 10 L/s, how long will it take to reach 50 psi.filtration pressure.
a. 132 s. c. 155 s.
b. 140s. d. 128 s.
93. In the filtration of a sludge, the initial period is effected at a constant rate with the feed pump at full capacity until the pressure differential reaches 400 kPa. The pressure is then maintained at this value for a remainder of filtration. The constant rate operation requires 900 seconds and 1/3 of the total filtrate is obtained during this period. No washing of the cycle is done. If the time for removing the cake and reassembling the press is 1200 seconds determine the total time per cycle.
a. 5700 s. c. 5100 s.
b. 4500 s. d. 4015 s.
94. A filtration is carried out for 10 min. at a constant pressure in a leaf filter and there after it is continued at constant pressure which is attained at the end of the constant rate period. If one quarter of the total value of the filtrate is collected during the constant rate period. What is the total filtration time? Assume that the cake is incompressible and that the filter medium resistance is negligible.
a. 55 min. c. 65 min.
b. 45 min. d. 75 min.
95. A rotary drum filter with 35% of its filtering area submerged in the slurry, turns at 0.5 rpm. The filtrate production is 0.61 cubic meter per min. per square meter of filtering area submerged when filtering lime slurry. Average production is 20.4 cubic meters of filtrate per hour. The estimated area of the filter cloth in square meter is
