What is difference between micro filtration and hepa filtration?

HEPA is stands for High eff ency particulate filters & its normally stops particles size more than 0.3micron & using for clean rooms . Micro filtration have higher filtration level with respect to HEPA around 5 micron .All filters are using on demand on area filtration level


Why is vacuum filtration faster than gravity filtration?

Vacuum filtration is used instead of gravity filtration in order to achieve a dryer product in less time. The faster process of vacuum filtration allows the slurry to remain cold and in cases such as with benzoic acid more crytals will remain formed at colder temperatures. Gravity filtration is most useful when the solid is to be discarded and the filtrate (the liquid that flows through the filter paper) kept. Vacuum filtration is often faster than gravity filtration and is most useful if the solid must be kept or if a filtration must be done rapidly. A vacuum from an aspirator or a vacuum pump is used to pull the liquid through a funnel containing a piece of filter paper, while the solid is left on the paper.


Does filtration require energy?

yes


Is homogenized milk a homogenous mixture?

No. Chemistry texts have long cited milk as a good example of a heterogeneous mixture. Milk "homogenization" is a high-pressure filtration process that just breaks the fat particles down into smaller particles so that they are more evenly dispersed throughout the milk.

What is filtration in chemistry and what are some examples?

Filtration in chemistry is a technique used to separate solids from liquids or gases by passing the mixture through a filter medium. Examples of filtration include the separation of tea leaves from tea using a strainer, the removal of sand from water using a filter paper, and the purification of air using air filters in HVAC systems.

Why is my pool water cloudy?

Cloudy pool water can be caused by a variety of factors, including improper pH levels, inadequate filtration, high levels of organic matter, or the presence of algae or bacteria. Regular testing and maintenance of your pool's water chemistry and filtration system can help prevent and clear up cloudy water.
