Optimum Design and Operation of Diatomite Filtration Plants
The primary objective of this study was to develop a digital‐computer program for use in designing diatomite filtration plants that would produce filtered water of requisite quality at least cost. To achieve the objective, it was necessary to be able to predict the variation of filter cake resistance for various conditions, because cake resistance is one of the primary factors influencing costs. Diatomite filtration equations that were theoretically developed from the generally accepted filtration rate equation were used to describe the head loss‐time relationships during formation of diatomite filter cakes. A computer program was developed for determining the optimum operating conditions for a specific type of plant that filters a particular water and uses a specified grade of filter aid. This program was named the Program for Optimization of Plant Operation (POPO). The program determines the optimum combination of filtration rate, body feed concentration, and terminal head loss by simply computing costs of filtration for any desired number of combinations and choosing the ten most economical.
