A key challenge during the transition from laboratory/small batch to continuous
manufacturing is the development of a process strategy that can easily be adopted for a …

This work presents an overview of literature relative to the modelling of cake filtration and
expression. Different approaches are compared to the so called conventional one in order to …

Previous studies considered the water-based drilling fluid filter cake as homogenous,
containing one layer with an average porosity and permeability. The filter cake was recently …

One of the key challenges that the pharmaceutical industry is trying to address is to maintain
particle properties across the entire purification and isolation process. This research focuses …

Predictive model is developed to simulate the dewatering of non-uniformly structured wet
compacts formed at different filtration pressures PF and then compressed under additional …

Here, cell separation from microbial suspensions (gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli,
gram-positive bacterium Lactococcus lactis, and yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was …

An outline of the directions and topics of future cake filtration research is presented. The
proposed topics include the formulation of more accurate and efficient procedures of …

A computer model was developed to simulate the cake formation and growth in cake
filtration at an individual particle level. The model was shown to be able to generate …

The aim of this work was to develop a computer prigram describing the build-up of a filter
cake. The program is based on a model presented by Wakeman in 1981, but which has …

Previous studies indicated that the filter cake was heterogeneous and contained two layers
with different properties such as thickness, porosity, and permeability. The difference in …
