Filtration is a simple technique used to separate solid particles from suspension in a liquid solution. There are many filtration methods available, but all are based on the same general principle: a heterogenous mixture is poured over a filter membrane. The filter membrane has pores of a particular size. Particles larger than the pores will be unable to… Continue reading A General Filtration Process

Filtration is the process by which solid materials are removed from a fluid mixture, either a gas or liquid mixture. Anyone who has ever prepared foods in a kitchen has probably seen one of the simplest forms of filtration. After cooking pasta, for example, the contents of the pot may be poured through a colander… Continue reading Filtration

Filtration is a common technique for mechanically separating gases or liquids. A filter membrane serves as a barrier to enable ion exchange, removing macromolecules or bacteria from solution, separating colloids, or recovering gases. Some uses for filtration include producing clean drinking water, generating safe food products, and ensuring a clean environment. It is used for petro-chemical… Continue reading Filter Membrane

Filtration is the method through which solids are taken out of a liquid or gas combination. Examples of filtration include coffee filters to split up the coffee from the grounds, belt filters for extraction of precious metals, HEPA filters for air conditioning, pneumatic conveying systems, sparkler filters and Buchner funnels. Experiments to see if microscopic… Continue reading What Are Some Examples of Filtration?

Filtration is the separation of solids from a suspension in a liquid by means of a porous medium, screen or filter cloth, which retains the solids and allows the liquid to pass through. Field of application Filtration is used in the food, drink and milk industry to fulfil the following functions: • to clarify liquid… Continue reading Filtration Explained
