(c) A plant has a 60,000acfm gas stream containing a hazardous dust with an estimated drift velocity of 0.250ft/s. The minimum required efficiency is 99.80%. Assume that the Deutsch—Anderson (DA) equation applies. LT Associates has proposed (as a control device) a tubular-type precipitator with tubes 10 inch in diameter and 10ft height. How many tubes are needed? Approximate the volume occupied by the tubes. 07
