How to Calculate and Solve for Concentration of Particles | Fluidization

Last Updated on July 28, 2021

The image above represents concentration of particles.

To compute for concentration of particles, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Initial Concentration of Particles (Co), Constant (M) and Time of Elutriation (t).

The formula for calculating concentration of particles:

C = Coe-Mt

Where:

C = Concentration of Particles
Co = Initial Concentration of Particles
M = Constant
t = Time of Elutriation

Let’s solve an example;
Find the concentration of particles when the initial concentration of particles is 10, the constant is 5 and the time of elutriation is 2.

This implies that;

Co = Initial Concentration of Particles = 10
M = Constant = 5
t = Time of Elutriation = 2

C = Coe-Mt
C = 10e-(5)(2)
C = 10e-10
C = 10(0.000045)
C = 0.00045

Therefore, the concentration of particles is 0.00045 mol/m³.
