Transcribed Image Text:

A suspension of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells is filtered under constant pressure for recovery of lipase. A pilot-scale filter is used to measure the filtration properties. The filter area is 1 m², the pressure drop is 2 bar, and the filtrate viscosity is 1.1*10³kg/m.s. The cell suspension deposits 30 kg of incompressible cake per m³ of filtrate. The following data are measured and t/V-V plotted. Determine the specific cake resistance (a) and filter medium resistance (rm). 3,00E+04 2,50E+04 2,00E+04 1,50E+04 1,00E+04 5,00E+03 0,00€+00 v-t/V plot y=-1950x+7400 R-0,9993 0,00€+00 2,00E+00 4,00E+00 6,00E+00 8,00E+00 1,00E+01 1,20E+01 A suspension of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells is filtered under constant pressure for recovery of lipase.
