During August 1977, the following sets of runs were completed on the Rotary Pressure Precoat Filter Test Leaf, using Tacoma Filter Feed: AF5 precoat with 1 mil/cycle blade advance at 70 psid and 600/sup 0/F: Rates were in the range of 280 to 410 pounds/hour/square foot and were quite close to identical runs in June. AF2 precoat with /sup 1///sub 2/ and 1 mil/cycle blade advance at 70 psid and 100 psid and 600/sup 0/F: Rates ranged from 220 to 520 pounds/hour/square foot and indicated that the finer diatomite might be practical on a large scale. The test leaf system was revised to allow in situ operation for future runs. The revised construction and planned operation for September has been described for its use on Tacoma Filter Feed with precoats of AF5, AF6, and Standard SUPER-CEL.
