Real World Examples of Particle and Cake Formation Influences
Image source Process engineers might love it if all of the filtration technology solutions they developed ran flawlessly, at all times, under all conditions. But, this isn’t realistic. Something might go wrong with the filtration mechanism itself. A change in the environment — upstream or downstream — could cause problems with particle or cake formation. Even the smallest shift in the operation process or procedure can prompt the dreaded phone call to the engineer: “the filtration system isn’t…
Pertaining to Particle Size Analysis Methods
Photo credit: NASA Johnson via Remodel / CC BY-NC When I say “Particle Size,” you say “Analysis.” When I say “Particle Size,” you say _________. Who says we can’t have fun with particle size analysis methods? I know BHS-Sonthofen’s latest A&SoF newsletter has some interesting reads on the topic. Focusing on particle size and shape and their impacts on solid-liquid separation, we share some current industry insights on the topic. Drawing on resources from Mettler-Toledo and…
