Filtration operation carried out by continuous increase of the inlet pressure of slurry, is called the _____________ filtration?

Correct answer: A. Constant rate

  • A. Constant rate
  • B. Varying pressure
  • C. Varying rate
  • D. Constant pressure

Explanation

When slurry is filtered at a constant rate, the cake resistance increases and the inlet pressure must continuously rise. Thus, increasing inlet pressure describes constant-rate filtration.
