Characteristics of Filter Cake Exfoliation in Upward Ultrafiltration of Nanoparticle Suspensions

Downward and upward ultrafiltration (UF) was performed using the suspensions of nanosized colloidal silica with different particle diameters and their filtration rates were compared. In downward UF, the filtration rate decreases as the particle diameter decreases because the specific filtration resi...
