Filtrating is the act of passing a liquid or gas through a filter with the aim of removing solids or particulates. It is a broad term used in laboratory, industrial, environmental, and household contexts. The operation produces a filtrate, the liquid that passes through the filter, and a residue or filter cake, the solids left on the filter.
Techniques and modes of filtration vary by mechanism and equipment. Gravity filtration relies on the force
Filter media encompass a range of materials and structures. Filter papers and glass fiber are common in
Applications are diverse, including clarifying solutions in chemistry, purifying biological samples, water and air treatment, and
Key considerations include chemical compatibility, temperature and pressure limits, potential adsorption of target molecules, fouling or
