    Diagram of simple filtration: oversize particles in the feed cannot pass through the lattice structure of the filter, while fluid and small particles pass through, becoming filtrate. Filtration is a physical separation process that separates solid matter and fluid from a mixture using a filter medium that has a complex structure through which ...
