A bell filter press with an effective belt width of 2.0 m dewaters 100 gpm of anaerobically digested sludge with a solids content of 6.5%. The polymer dosage is 6.4 gpm. containing 0.20% powdered polymer by weight.The wash-water consumption for bell cleaning is 60 gpm.The cake solids content is 30% and the suspended-solids concentration in the wash water measures 1800 mg/l. Calculate the hydraulic loading rate, solids loading rate, and polymer dosage and estimate the solids recovery. .
