The research program is involved with the area of solid/liquid separation including sedimentation, thickening, cake filtration, centrifugation, expression, washing, deep-bed filtration, screening, and membrane separation. Objective is the unification of theoretical approaches to solid/liquid separations. The research is divided according to: Centrifugation, cake filtration, sedimentation/thickening, and optimization studies (tubular arrangements in candle filters; maximizing filtration rates with filter aids).
