Results for tag: "Depth Filtration"

Depth filtration is a type of filtration process used in chemical engineering. It is a physical separation process that uses a porous medium to separate particles from a fluid. The porous medium is usually composed of a series of layers of different materials, such as sand, gravel, and cloth. The particles are trapped in the pores of the medium, while the fluid passes through. The depth filtration process is used in a variety of industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing. Depth filtration is used to remove suspended solids, bacteria, and other contaminants from liquids. It is also used to clarify liquids, such as beer and wine. The process is often used in combination with other filtration processes, such as ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. Depth filtration is a cost-effective and efficient method of filtration. It is also relatively easy to operate and maintain. Some companies in the depth filtration market include Pall Corporation, 3M, Sartorius, Merck Millipore, and Koch Membrane Systems.
