Filtration is a general term most often characterized by size separation (trap larger objects while letting smaller objects through, by chemical bonding/breaking, or electrostatic attraction.

Centrifugation works with specific gravities or densities of materials to separate them.

Which is better depends on what materials are being separated, and at what volumes.
