Seawater is passed through a column containing a bed of resin beads.
Density of seawater =1025 kg m-3
Density of resin beads =1330 kg m-3
Diameter of resin beads =50 μm
Void fraction of the bed at the onset of fluidization =0.4
Acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m s-2
The pressure drop per unit length of the bed at the onset of fluidization is _______ Pa m-1 (round off to nearest integer).
