The specific cake resistance for incompressible sludges is (where ΔP = pressure drop over cake)__________________?

Correct answer: D. Independent of ΔP

  • A. ∝ ΔP
  • B. ∝ 1/ ΔP
  • C. ∝ √ΔP
  • D. Independent of ΔP

Explanation

For an incompressible cake, the cake structure does not change as pressure rises, so its specific resistance remains constant and is independent of pressure drop.
