Filtration capacity of a rotary drum vacuum filter depends upon the_______________?
Correct answer: C. Both A. & B.
- A. Cake thickness
- B. Characteristics of the feed slurry
- C. Both A. & B.
- D. Neither A. nor B.
Explanation
Rotary drum vacuum-filter capacity depends on cake thickness, which controls the filtration resistance, and on feed-slurry characteristics such as solids concentration and permeability. Therefore both listed factors matter.
