How can you separate sand and styrofoam?
That will depend on the size of the styrofoam pieces. If they are significantly larger than the sand, you merely pick them out by hand. If not, then a sieve can be used assuming the sand will go thru the sieve and the styrofoam will be too large to pass through. You need to find a sieve with the right size holes. Another way is to add acetone and the styrofoam will dissolve, and the sand will stay behind, but this technique doesn't give you the styrofoam back again.
