Filtration points
Engineers without Borders at the University of Toledo has been assigned to build a trimedia filter in a water treatment plant in a small city in Venezuela.
The filter has a m crushed anthracite coal layer specific gravity a m sand layer specific gravity and a m garnet layer specific gravity The average sizes of the particles in the three layers are and mm respectively. The shape factor sphericity values are and the porosities of the three layers are for anthracite, for sand, and for garnet. The filtration rate is and the water temperature is Note: treat each layer as a bed of uniform particles
Using the Rose equation, determine the total clean bed head loss for the trimedia filter.
