the total water filtered during a filter run is 4,140,000 gallons. if the filter is 30 ft long and 20 ft wide, what is the ufrv in gal/sq ft?

the total water filtered during a filter run is 4,140,000 gallons. if the filter is 30 ft long and 20 ft wide, what is the ufrv in gal/sq ft?

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the filter area

The area (A) of a rectangle is given by (A = length\times width). Here, (length = 30\space ft) and (width=20\space ft). So, (A=30\times20 = 600\space sq\space ft)

Step2: Calculate the UFRV

The unit filter run volume (UFRV) is calculated as (UFRV=\frac{Total\space water\space filtered}{Filter\space area}). Given (Total\space water\space filtered = 4140000\space gallons) and (Filter\space area = 600\space sq\space ft). Then (UFRV=\frac{4140000}{600}) [ \begin{align*} \frac{4140000}{600}&=\frac{41400}{6}\ & = 6900\space gal/sq\space ft \end{align*} ]

Answer:

(6900\space gal/sq\space ft)
