The particle size distributions of the feed and collected solids (sampled for same duration) for a gas cyclone are given below.
What is the collection efficiency (in PERCENTAGE) of the gas cyclone?
| Size range (μm) | 1-5 | 5-10 | 10-15 | 15-20 | 20-25 | 25-30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weight of feed in the size range (g) | 2.0 | 3.0 | 5.0 | 6.0 | 3.0 | 1.0 |
| Weight of collected solids in the size range (g) | 0.1 | 0.7 | 3.6 | 5.5 | 2.9 | 1.0 |
What is the collection efficiency (in PERCENTAGE) of the gas cyclone?
Correct : c
