Performance Evaluation of Filters for Sedimentation Particle Filtration
Abstract This study was undertaken for performance evaluation of filters for separation of sediments at different loads of sedimentation. These observations are conducted at Plasticulture Farm, CTAE, Udaipur, Rajasthan. For this study, three types of filters were used, i.e. sand filter, screen filter and disc filter. Water with different sediment loads was feeded and samples of filtrate were analysed for removal efficiency of these particles. During the study of particle size distribution, it was found that sand filter was able to retain 100% particles larger than 0.05 mm size, whereas disc and screen filters were able to retain only 92.73 and 86.33%, respectively. The main difference in the removal of particles of different diameters was found that sand filter is most efficient (i.e. 82.35%) in removing particles of all diameters and achieved the total retention of particles with diameters greater than 0.05 mm.
