A tool that is used to separate heterogeneous mixtures like sand dirt and water is a simple filter. The other process that can be used to separate heterogeneous mixtures is decanting, or allowing the mixture to settle and pouring off the top layer.

1. Pour the mixture through a funnel of filter paper. The sand will not flow through. Leave the funnel with the sand in it out to evaporate the rest of the water.

2. Boil the mixture because the boiling point of water is much lower than that of sand. When all the water boils off, leave out to cool.
