It takes 45 minutes to filter 0.2 m³ suspension of Bacillus subtilis cells under p = 20 psi, for recovery of protease. The filter area is 0.25 m2, and the filtrate viscosity is 15 cP. The cell suspension deposits 50 g cake per liter of filtrate and forms a compressible cake.
If α' = 0.35 [min/m²⋅Cₚ⋅psiˢ⁻¹(g/L)], and resistance due to filter medium is negligible.
(a) What is the compressibility factor s'?
(b) Find the time required to filter a volume of filtrate such that V/A ratio is increased by a factor of 5 (i. e. V/A 5 times the initial VA)

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa.s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
