TRANSPORT AND STRAINING OF SUSPENSIONS IN POROUS MEDIA: EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL STUDY
ABSTRACT
An analytical model for deep bed filtration of suspension in porous media and straining under size exclusion capture mechanism is developed and validated by laboratory tests on suspension flow in engineered media. The fraction of swept particles is introduced in the inlet boundary condition. The model is successfully matched with the results from column experiments, predicting the suspended particle concentrations at the outlet.
