J. Skladzien et J. Szymkow, The influence of pore size distribution and moisture content on tensile strength of filter cakes, INZ CHEM PR, 22(3E), 2001, pp. 1261-1266
The aim of this paper is a correlation of tensile strength of partially dew
atered filter cakes with capillary pressure curve obtained during dewaterin
g experiments. The results presented are based on shear tests of filter cak
es with different moisture content. The model of dewatering process is pres
ented. The experimental data are used for determination of capillary size d
istribution of filter cake build of limestone particles.
