L=0.6 m, D=0.12 m of packed bed reactor

Height of packing material = 0.36 m

Volume of packed material = 3.14/4 * 0.12 * 0.12 * 0.36 = 0.00407 m3

Density of packed material = 690 Kg/m3

Mass of charcoal required = 0.0407 * 690 = 2.8 Kg

Hydraulic Retention Time = 4.07  L/h = 407 mL/h = 9.8 L/d

Can someone check if the calculations are right.
