Abstract
Experimental work has been undertaken on a novel electrically-assisted fibrous filter for the removal of particulates from low conductivity aqueous suspensions. An ion exchange fibre was used to study the remov al of silica and kaolin. Changes in filter bed depth, fibre volume, fl ow rate and buffer concentration all affected particulate removal wher eas altering particle concentration had no effect.
