Extracted text: Example 5.1 : For a sludge filtered in a washing plate and frame the filtration equation V = Kt holds good, where V is the volume of the filtrate obtained in time t. When the pressure is constant, 30 m² of filtrate is obtained in 10 h. (i) Calculate the washing time if 3 m’ of wash water is forced to the cake at the end of filtration.
