FILTRATIONSolid particles are removed from theslurry by forcing the fluid through a filtermedium, which blocks the passage ofthe solid particles and allows the filtrateto pass through.
Pressure difference is set up andcauses the fluid to flow through smallholes of the screen or cloth whichblock the passage of the large solidparticles, which, in turn, build up on thecloth as a porous cake.
CENTRIFUGATIONSimilar to ordinary filtration where abed or cake of solids builds up on ascreen, but centrifugal force is used tocause the flow instead of a pressuredifference.

PROBLEM 7A batch centrifugal filter having a bowl diameter of 750 mm and a bowl height of 450 mm is used to filter a suspension having the following properties:◦ Temperature: liquid, water = 25°C
◦ Porosity of cake = 0.435
◦ Final thickness of cake = 150 mm
◦ Specific cake resistance = 9.5 E 10 ft/lb
◦ Filter medium resistance = 2.6 E 10 per ft
◦ Speed of the centrifuge = 2000 rpm
◦ Concentration of solids in feed = 60 g/L
◦ Density of dry solid in cake = 2000 kg/m3
The final cake is washed with water under such conditions that the radius of the inner surface of the liquid is 200 mm. Assuming that the rate of flow of wash water equals the final rate of flow of filtrate, the rate of washing is m3/hr is
