Filtration ◆ Used to clarify fluid foods( fruit juices or vegetable oils) and to remove microorganisms from either air or fluid foods and to separate solid from liquid phases. In some cases, the material that remains on the filter is the valuable component (crystal slurry from liquid in sugar refining, separation of proteins or yeast). The material that passes through the filter is the desired product (fruit juice or vegetable oil Clarification, sterilized water or air)

Principles of Operation. ◆ Filtration involves passing a material through a filter medium that retains particles of a certain size, Filtration is distinguished from other membrane separations (ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis) in terms of the size of particles that are separated. A fluid containing solid matter is forced through a filter medium, with the solid particles being retained by the filter and the liquid passing through
