Question: A cell suspension is filtered through a filter under constant pressure. The filter area is 0.25m2, the pressure drop is 0.489N/m2 and the filtrate viscosity

A cell suspension is filtered through a filter under constant pressure. The filter area is 0.25m2, the pressure drop is 0.489N/m2 and the filtrate viscosity is 4103Pa s. The cell suspension deposits 22g cake per liter of filtrate. The filter medium resistance can be neglected. Using the following data: a) Calculate specific cake resistance () b) If the V=4000L same cell suspension is filtered at 30min using a A=26m2 filter under the same pressure drop, how much filter cake deposits on the filter
