Abstract

AbstractThis work contributes to the field of solid‐liquid separation in focusing on the screening of colloidal particles in a semicontinuous process. The aim of the study is to provide the basics for a continuous classification process in industry. After a short introduction to the field of particle screening, a review of the possibilities of classification in the gas or liquid phase is presented, including analytical methods, devices for the fractionation on the laboratory scale as well as apparatus for screening on the pilot and industrial scale. The results show the dispersion, stabilization and classification of fine kaolin and polystyrene particles. Kaolin was used to demonstrate the possibility of removing the fraction of fine particles, polystyrene particles were used to investigate the removal of the coarse fraction. The diameter of the particles used in this study ranges from 250 nm to 3 μm.
