12. A plate and frame filter press contains 24 frames, each 1 inch thick and has inside dimensions of 2 ft x 2 ft. Filtering time is 2 hours. Wash water volume is 10% of the filtrate volume per cycle. Filtering and washing are done at the same pressure. The final cake is 0.05 ft/ft³ of filtrate. If the time for cleaning and reassembling is 30 min/cycle, the capacity of the press is a. 900 ft /hour for b. 936 ft/day c. 950 ft³/day d. 950 ft³/hour
