Question: In an MF process, an MF module is evaluated in the laboratory using de - ionized water and a flow of 2 5 0 I

In an MF process, an MF module is evaluated in the laboratory using de-ionized water and a flow of 250Im2h is
obtained at 20C and 0.7 bar of trans-membrane pressure difference.
In its scale operation in an industry The pharmaceutical company produces 84Im2h at 1.1 bar of trans-membrane
pressure just before performing a cleaning stage and 106Im2h at 0.52 bar immediately after cleaning both at a
temperature of 20C.
Calculate:
i) the membrane resistance coefficient (Rm),
ii) the irreversible fouling coefficient (Rirr) and
iii) the reversible fouling resistance coefficient (Rrev).
Data. Viscosity H2O20C10-3kgm.s,1 bar =100kPa,105Nm2=105kgs2*m
