A filter funnel is a laboratory funnel used for separating solids from liquids via the laboratory process of filtering.
A filter paper is typically held in a funnel during filtration. The funnel is often placed in a ring stand or held by a clamp to support it during the filtration process.
To make pouring liquids easier, and, when filter paper is placed in a funnel, it is used as a filter.
Holding a filter funnel.
There are various uses for a funnel. For example, you might use one to pour a drink into a flask.
In a modified separating funnel the lighter liquid is extracted at the top of the funnel.
It is a glass funnel into which can be placed a circle of folded filter paper (so that it too is the shape of the funnel) liquids may then be poured into the funnel and while the liquids will drain through (to be collected at the base of the funnel), any solids will be retained on the paper.
A filter funnel is used to separate solid materials from liquids during the filtration process. First, a filter paper is folded and placed inside the funnel. The filter paper is then moistened slightly so it adheres to the funnel walls. The funnel is positioned over a flask, beaker, or collection container. The liquid mixture is carefully poured into the funnel, allowing the liquid to pass through the filter paper while the solid particles remain trapped on the paper. Filter funnels are commonly used in laboratories, research facilities, educational institutions, and industrial applications to achieve accurate and efficient separation of substances.
A filter funnel is used in science to separate solids from liquids. By pouring a mixture of solid and liquid into the funnel with filter paper, the liquid can pass through the paper while the solid is retained, allowing for the separation of the two components.

Though there are exceptions, it is usually an open-top, glass funnel.
Büchner funnel, filter paper, flask or beaker.
Also known as a Buchner or vacuum flask, the flask uses vacuum to filter samples. A vacuum hose is attached to the hose barb and the funnel is placed on top. As the hose creates a vacuum, the sample is filtered through the funnel.
