The role of Pi, Po, and Pf in constitutive equations and new boundary conditions in cake filtration
The constitutive equations proposed by Tiller and Shirato were analyzed and a new constitutive equation originating from the sediment thickness was proposed. A new boundary condition of the filter cake based o...

Effects of pore size, suspension concentration, and pre-sedimentation on the measurement of filter medium resistance in cake filtration
Theoretical and experimental study was conducted on the factors influencing the measurement of filter medium resistance by Ruth’s equation. It was determined that a filter medium having small pore size does no...

A unified theory on solid-liquid separation: Filtration, expression, sedimentation, filtration by centrifugal force, and cross flow filtration
Based upon a new conception that the solid compressive pressure on a cake surface is not null, almost of all solid-liquid separation operations have been re-examined. For cake filtration, the phenomenon caused...
