Abstract
To minimize precoat or diatomite filtration costs, a number of pilot-plant tests must be completed to determine the hydraulic characteristics of filter cakes that result when body feed rates are sufficient to produce a linear pressure drop to volume-of-filtrate relationship. A recently proposed theory of constant rate precoat filtration reduces the number of pilot-plant tests that must be made.
