This document summarizes clarification, which is the separation of solids from fluids or fluids from other fluids. It discusses various clarification processes like filtration and centrifugation. Filtration methods are classified as solid/fluid, solid/gas, or fluid/fluid. Applications in pharmaceutical processing include improving product appearance and removing contaminants. Factors affecting the rate of filtration are also summarized.
Filtration maybe defined as a nonthermal mechanical process in which undissolved particulates or suspended solid particles are separated from a solid liquid mixture by passing through a porous fibrous or granular permeable known as Filtration.
Filtration and filters maybe classified in a number of ways
By driving Force
By Function
By filtration Mechanism
By operating Cycle
By nature of Solid
The studies influence techniques of filtration, its various types, and theories involved in the rate of filtration. This topic useful for physical pharmacy students and other concerned with filtration.

Objectives, applications & Theories in FILTRATIONAkankshaPatel55
Filtration is a physical separation process that separates solid matter and fluid from a mixture using a filter medium that has a complex structure through which only the fluid can pass. Solid particles that cannot pass through the filter medium are described as oversize and the fluid that passes through is called the filtrate. Oversize particles may form a filter cake on top of the filter and may also block the filter lattice, preventing the fluid phase from crossing the filter, known as blinding. The size of the largest particles that can successfully pass through a filter is called the effective pore size of that filter.
Filtration is used in many different applications, including:
Water treatment: to remove impurities from water, such as sediment, bacteria, and viruses.
Air filtration: to remove dust, pollen, and other allergens from air.
Oil filtration: to remove impurities from oil, such as dirt, metal shavings, and water.
Chemical processing: to separate solids from liquids in chemical reactions.
Food and beverage processing: to clarify liquids, such as juice, wine, and beer.
There are many different types of filters, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some common types of filters include:
Depth filters: These filters are made of a thick layer of material, such as paper, cloth, or sand. The solid particles are trapped in the pores of the filter medium.
Surface filters: These filters are made of a thin layer of material, such as a membrane. The solid particles are trapped on the surface of the filter medium.
Cartridge filters: These filters are self-contained units that can be easily replaced.
Bag filters: These filters are made of a bag of fabric that is suspended in a housing. The solid particles are trapped in the fabric of the bag.

In Odoo, the multi-company feature allows you to manage multiple companies within a single Odoo database instance. Each company can have its own configurations while still sharing common resources such as products, customers, and suppliers.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. Clarification:
Separation of solid from a fluid or a fluid from another fluid.
Clarification process is mainly done by
Filtration
Centrifugation.
Main reasons:
1. To remove unwanted solid particles from liquid
2. To collect the solid as the product itself.
Classification of filtration
1. Solid/fluid filtration
2. Solid/gas filtration
3. Fluid/fluid filtration
3. Solid/fluid filtration
The separation of an insoluble solid from a fluid by means of a porous medium.
Solid/fluid filtration subdivided into two types,
• Solid/liquid filtration
• Solid/gas filtration.
Applications of solid/liquid filtration in pharmaceutical processing:
• Improvement of the appearance of solutions, mouthwashes etc. for clarifying product.
• Removal of potential irritants
• Production of water of appropriate quality for pharmaceutical production
• Recovery of desired solid material from a suspension or slurry
• Sterilization of liquid or semi-solid products
• Detection of microorganisms present in liquids
4. Solid/gas filtration.
Two main applications of solid/gas filtration in pharmaceutical
processing.
• Removal of suspended solid material from air
• To remove particulate matter generated during a manufacturing
operation from the process air in order to prevent the material being
vented to the atmosphere.
5. Fluid/fluid filtration
Flavoring oils are added to liquid preparations in the form of a spirit, i.e. dissolved in
alcohol. When these spirits are added to aqueous-based formulations some of the oil
may come out of solution, giving the product a degree of turbidity. Removal of the oil
droplets by passing them through an appropriate filter (a liquid/liquid filtration process)
is used to produce the desired product appearance.
Compressed air is used in a number of pharmaceutical processes, e.g. film-coating
spray guns bottle-cleaning equipment and fluid energy mills. Before use, the
compressed air needs to be filtered to ensure that any entrained oil or water droplets
are removed. This is an example of a fluid/gas filtration process.
6. Factors affecting Rate of Filtration
The chosen filtration process must remove the contaminants from the
product
• At an acceptably fast rate
• Economically
7. Darcy’s Equation
• All the factors that affect the rate of filtration is compiled into one equation by Henry Darcy
(1830)
• The equation represents rate of flow through the capillaries of the filter medium and the filter
cake.
• V = Volume of filtrate
• t = Time of filtration
• A = Area of filter medium
• ∆𝑃 = Pressure drop across filter medium and filter cake
• 𝜇 = Viscosity of the filtrate
K is a constant representing the • l = thickness of the cake resistance of the filter
medium and filter

11. ADVANTAGE
Construction of the filter press is simple
and variety of materials can be used.
It is provided a large filtering area in the
relatively small floor space.
The sturdy construction permits the use
of the considerable pressure difference.
Efficient washing of the cake is possible.
It produces dry cake in the form of slab.
DISADVANTAGE
It is a batch filter so there is a good deal of
down time which is non productive.
The filter press is an expensive filter.
Operation is critical as the frames should
be full other wise the washing is inefficient
and the cake is difficult to remove.
The filter press is used for the slurries
containing less than 5% solids.
12. Centrifugation:
Centrifugation is a technique of separating substances which involves
the application of centrifugal force.
The particles are separated from a solution according to their size,
shape, density, viscosity of the medium and rotor speed.
Types of centrifugation
1. Low speed centrifuge
2. High speed centrifuge
3. Ultracentrifuges
4. Analytical centrifuge
5. Micro centrifuge
13. Principle of centrifugation:
Particles having a size above 5m sediment at the bottom due to gravitation force and
separated by filtration. If the size of particles is less than 5m they undergo Brownian motion.
For that they are separated by centrifugation.
Considering a body of mass m rotating in a circular path of radius r at a velocity of v. The
force acting on the body in a radial direction is given by:
F = mv2/r
The gravitational force acting upon the same body G = mg
The centrifugal effect is the ratio of the centrifugal force and gravitational forces so that
C= F/G = m𝑣2/mgr = 𝑣2/gr (3)
Since, v = 2 r n where n = speed of rotation (r.p.m.)
C= F/G = (2πrn)2/ gr = 4𝜋2
