Fick's law relates to
The basic filtration equation is given as where, V is volume of the filtrate ; A is the filtration area, a is specific cake resistance, μ is viscosity of the filtrate, and C is the concentration of the solids in the feed slurry.

If this is followed by a constant pressure filtration, how much more time in minutes, it will take for another 5 m3 of filtrate to be produced?
