FilterPressSizing
Step 1 Determinethevolumeofdrycakethatwill beproduced.
Vw =Volumeof“wet“sludge
Vd=Volumeofdewateredcake
Cw =Drysolidscontentinwetsludge
Cd =Drysolidscontentindrysludge
Vd = (V
wxC
w)x(C
d/100)
Step 2 Basedonthelevelofautomationandlaboravailable,decidethenumberofoperationsperday.
Od =Numberofoperationsperday
P =Filterpresssize P = V
d/O
d
