A rotary drum filter with 30% submergence is used to filter concentrated aqueous slurry of calcium carbonate containing 15lb of solids per cubic foot of water. The pressure–drop is 2011Hg. If the filter cake contains 50% mixture (wet basis), calculate the filter area required to filter 10 gal/min of slurry. The filter cycle time is 5 min. The specific cake resistance depends on the pressure–drop as: α (ft/lb) = α (Δp)0.26, where α = 2.90×1010 Viscosity of the filtrate = 6.72×10-4 lb/ft-s. Density of calcium carbonate = 168.8 lb/ft3. Neglect filter medium resistance.
If the size of the averaging filter used to smooth the original image to first image is 9, then what would be the size of the averaging filter used in smoothing the same original picture to second in second image?
The filter order of a Butterworth lowpass filter determines whether it is a very sharp or extremely smooth filter function, or an intermediate filter function. Which of the following filters does the filter approach if the parameter value is very high?
Cleaning is done by
(i) Scraping and removal in filters slow sand
(ii) Back washing in slow sand filters
(iii) Scraping and removal in filters rapid sand
(iv) Back washing in rapid sand filters
The correct answer is
Assertion A: Slow sand filters are more efficient in removal of bacteria than rapid sand filters.
Reason R: The sand used in slow sand filters is finer than that in rapid sand filters

Instead of glass filters, why gelatin filters could not be used for a long period while both are Absorption filters?
A city is to install rapid sand filters downstream of the clarifiers. The design loading rate is selected to be 160 m3/ (m2.d). The design capacity of the water works is 0.35 m3/s. The maximum surface per filter is limited to 50 m2. Design the number and size of filters.
