Liquid-solid filtration is one of the oldest, most basic and useful unit operations in the process industries and has been used effectively for centuries. Filters are used to process foodstuffs, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. They have been used in processes to reduce energy consumption, clean process fluids, process products, and treat wastewater and other streams.
Knowledge of filtration theory, product testing, equipment scale up and process design is necessary to apply this technology to your specific process. These factors are critical in determining how this unit operation will fit into your plant and allow the engineer to outline good operating and maintenance practices. Further, understanding of the principles of filtration will help to identify and troubleshoot filtration problems as well as lead to improved operations of existing filtration units.
In this seminar we will cover the following principles:
Review of filtration theory
Important characteristics and properties of fluids and solids in filtration
Filtration testing procedures and scale up
Introduction to filtration equipment
o Design
o Uses
o Selection
Continuous and batch filtration applications
Review of filter media
Expression vs. Filtration
Typical applications of filters
Review of peripheral equipment used in filtration processes
Controlling filtration processes
This course will help the design or operations individual to more accurately and confidently specify, start up, and troubleshoot filtration processes and equipment.
