Abstract

In this paper the effectiveness of separation in different systems of dynamic filtration, both mechanical and crossflow filtration, has been compared. Apart from the filtration rate obtained under comparable conditions the energy demand for these processes has also been compared. The obtained results show that dynamic mechanical filtration can in some cases be more effective than the more commonly used crossflow filtration.
