Modelling of the technological process of multiple filtering suspensions with multi-layered filter

Abstract

Although a technological process of filtration with multi-layered filters is well-known in industry (purification of such liquid solutions as spinning solutions, liquid fuels, drinking liquids, pharmaceuticals, etc.), very few studies have systematically quantified its mechanism, and even less have characterized the affect of its parameters on operating costs and the quality of the final product. In this study, there was developed a mathematical model of multiple filtration of suspensions with multi-layered filter, a computational algorithm for solving the problem as well as software for carrying out computational experiments. The developed mathematical software allows to carry out many-sided study and forecast the technological process of filtration in order to make appropriate management decisions.
