Question
An anaerobic digester (sealed, ID: 20 m) is used to produce renewable fuel from agricultural biomass. The head space pressure is maintained at 18.6 psi. A commercial steel pipe (20 cm) is
connected to the bottom of the digester to remove the biofuel (y= 2000 N/m³, vapor pressure 0.2 psi) generated at 0.034 m³/s. A centrifugal pump (Taco® Model 4007, 7.00 in, operated at
1760 rpm) will be used. Assuming the head loss in the pipe is 225 ft, which of the following elevation can the pump be located?
