Filtration is a process that separates solids from liquids or gases using a porous medium. As the suspension passes through the medium, solids are retained while the liquid or gas passes through. Key factors that affect the filtration rate include properties of the fluid and solids, concentration of solids, filter area, and resistance of the filter medium and cake buildup. The two main types of liquid filtration are cake filtration, where particles build up on the surface of the medium, and deep bed filtration, where particles penetrate the medium pores to remove fine particles from dilute suspensions. Proper filter selection depends on required filtrate quality, throughput, and operating costs. Common industrial filters include bag, plate and frame, pressure leaf,

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.

TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

K8sGPT is a tool that analyzes and diagnoses Kubernetes clusters. This presentation was used to share the requirements and dependencies to deploy K8sGPT in a local environment.
2. It may be defined as a process of separation of
solids from a fluid by passing the same
through a porous medium that retains the
solids, but allows the fluid to pass through.
3. APPLICATIONS
• PRODUCTION OF STERILE DRUGS.
• PRODUCTION OF BULK DRUGS.
• PRODUCTION OF LIQUID ORAL
FORMULATIONS.
• EFFLUENT AND WASTE WATER
TREATMENT.
6. SURFACE FILTRATION
• IT IS A SCREENING ACTION BY WHICH
PORES OR HOLES OF THE MEDIUM
PREVENT THE PASSAGE OF SOLIDS.
• THE MECHANISMS, STRAINING AND
IMPINGEMENT ARE RESPONSIBLE
FOR THIS FILTRATION.
7. DEPTH FILTRATION
• IN THIS PROCESS, SLURRY
PENETRATES TO A POINT WHERE THE
DIAMETER OF SOLID IS GREATER
THAN THAT OF THE TORTUOS VOID
OR CHANNEL.
• IT IS AIDED BY THE MECHANISM
ENTANGLEMENT.
8. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SURFACE
AND DEPTH FILTRATIONS
• SURFACE FILTRATION
• SIZE OF THE PARTICLES
RETAINED IS SLIGHTLY
HIGHER THAN THE MEAN
PORE SIZE OF MEDIUM
• MECHANICAL STRENGTH IS
LESS, UNLESS IT IS MADE
OF STAINLESS STEEL
• IT HAS LOW CAPACITY
• SIZE OF THE PARTICLES
RETAINED IS PREDICTABLE
• EQUIPMENT IS EXPENSIVE
BECAUSE IT SHOULD
REQUIRE ANCILLARY
EQUIPMENT
• EXAMPLE IS CELLULOSE
MEMBRANE FILTER
• DEPTH FILTRATION
• SIZE OF THE PARTICLES
RETAINED IS MUCH
SMALLER THAN THE PORES
THROUGH WHICH FLUID
PASSES
• MECHANICAL STRENGTH IS
HIGH
• IT HAS HIGH CAPACITY
• SIZE OF THE PARTICLES
RETAINED IS LESS
PREDICTABLE
• CHEAPER BECAUSE
ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT IS
NOT REQIRED
• EXAMPLES ARE CERAMIC
AND SINTERED FILTERS
9. CAKE FILTRATION
• A FILTER CONSISTS OF A COARSE
WOVEN CLOTH THROUGH WHICH A
CONCENTRATED SUSPENSION OF
RIGID PARTICLES IS PASSED SO THAT
THEY BRIDGE THE HOLES AND FORM
A BED.
11. POISEUILLES EQUATION
• HE CONSIDERED THAT FILTRATION IS
SIMILAR TO THE STREAMLINE FLOW OF A
LIQUID UNDER PRESSURE THROUGH
CAPILLARIES. EQUATION IS:
• V = Pr4 / 8Ln
• V = rate of flow , i.e., volume of liquid flowing
in unit time, m3/s(1/s)
• P = pressure difference across the filter,Pa
• r = radius of the capillary in the filter bed, m
• L = thickness of the filter cake (capillary length),
• n = viscosity of the filterate, pa.s
12. DARCYS EQUATION
• POISEUILLES LAW ASSUMES THAT THE
CAPILLARIES FOUND IN FILTER ARE HIGHLY
IRREGULAR AND NON-UNIFORM.
• THEREFORE,IF THE LENGTH OF A CAPILLARY IS
TAKEN AS THE THICKNESS OF A BED, A
CORRECTION FACTOR FOR RADIUS IS APPLIED SO
THAT THE RATE EQUATION IS CLOSELY
APPROXIMATED AND SIMPLIFIED.EQUATION IS :
• V = KAP/nL
• K = PERMEABILITY COEFICIENT OF THE CAKE ,M2.
• A = SURFACE AREA OF THE POROUS BED (FILTER
MEDIUM), M2.
13. KOZENY-CARMAN EQUATION
• POISEUILLE’S EQUATION IS MADE APPLICABLE TO
POROUS BED, BASED ON A CAPILLARY TYPE
STRUCTURE BY INCLUDING ADDITIONAL
PARAMETERS.
• THUS THE RESULTANT EQUATION, WHICH IS
WIDELY USED FOR filtration IS KOZENY-CARMAN
EQUATION
• V = A/NS2 . P/KL. 3/(1- )2
• = POROSITY OF THE CAKE (BED)
• S = SPECIFIC SURFACE AREA OF A PARTICLES
COMPRISING THE CAKE, M2/M3
• K = KOZENY CONSTANT
14. FACTORS INFLUENCING filtration
• SOME OF THE FACTORS INFLUENCING THE filtration ARE.
1. PROPERTIES OF THE LIQUIDS – DENSITY, VISCOSITY AND
CORROSIVENESS
2. PROPERTIES OF THE SOLIDS – PARTICLE SHAPE,
PARTICLE SIZE, PARTICLE CHARGE, DENSITY, PARTICLE
SIZE DISTRIBUTION, RIGIDITY (OR) COMPRESSIBILITY OF
THE SOLID UNDER PRESSURE AND TENDENCY OF
PARTICLE TO FLOCCULATE (OR) ADHERE TOGETHER.
3. PROPORTION OF SOLIDS IN THE SLURRY – RATE AT WHICH
THE FILTER CAKE IS FORMED, ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY
STAGES OF THE filtration.
4. OBJECTIVES – WHETHER THE SOLIDS OR THE LIQUID OR
BOTH ARE TO BE COLLECTED.
5. TEMPERATURE OF THE SUSPENSION.
15. OTHER FACTORS
• SURFACE AREA OF THE FILTER MEDIUM .
• PRESSURE DROP ACROSS THE FILTER
MEDIUM.
1. GRAVITY .
2. APPLYING PRESSURE.
3. REDUCING PRESSURE.
4. CENTRIFUGAL FORCE.
• VISCOSITY OF FILTERATE.
16. FILTER MEDIA
• THE FILTER MEDIUM ACTS AS A MECHANICAL SUPPORT
FOR THE FILTER CAKE AND IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR
THE COLLECION OF SOLIDS .
• CHARACTERSTICS : FILTER MEDIUM SHOULD HAVE THE
FOLLOWING CHARACTERSTICS
1. IT SHOULD HAVE SUFFICIENT MECHANICAL STRENGTH.
2. IT MUST BE INERT, FOR EXAMPLE, IT SHOULD NOT SHOW
CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL INTERACTION.
3. IT SHOULD NOT ABSORB THE DISSOLVED MATERIAL.
4. IT SHOULD ALLOW THE MAXIMUM PASSAGE OF LIQUID,
WHILE RETAINING THE SOLIDS. IT MEANS THAT IT MUST
OFFER LOW RESISTANCE TO FLOW. THE RESISTANCE
OFFERED BY THE FILTER MEDIUM IS NOT SIGNIFICANT IN
LARGE SCALE OPERATIONS AND CAN BE NEGLECTED.
17. MATERIALS USED IN FILTER
MEDIA
1. WOVEN MATERIALS SUCH AS FELT OR
CLOTH.
2. PERFORATED STEEL METAL.
3. BED OF GRANULAR SOLID BUILT UP ON A
SUPPORTING MEDIUM.
4. PRE-FABRICATED POROUS SOLID UNIT.
5. MEMBRANE FILTER MEDIA;

• DEPTH TYPE CARTRIDGES.
18. FILTER AIDS
• THEY FORMS A SURFACE DEPOSIT WHICH
SCREENS OUT THE SOLIDS AND ALSO
PREVENTS THE PLUGGING OF THE SUPPORTING
FILTER MEDIUM.
• CHARACTERSTICS : THE IMPORTANT
CHARACTERSTICS OF THE FILTER AIDS ARE :
1. CHEMICALLY INERT TO THE LIQUID BEING
FILTERED AND FREE FROM IMPURITIES
2. LOW SPECIFIC GRAVITY, SO THAT FILTER AIDS
REMAINS SUSPENDED IN LIQUID
3. POROUS RATHER THAN DENSE, SO THAT
PREVIOUS CAKE CAN BE FORMED
4. RECOVERABLE
19. HANDLING OF FILTER AIDS
• FILTER AIDS ARE MOSTLY USED FOR
CLARIFICATION PROCESSES, i.e; WHERE
SOLIDS ARE DISCARDED. DIFFERENT
FLOW RATES CAN BE ACHIEVED
DEPENDING ON THE GRADE OF THE AIDS.
1. LOW FLOW RATE (FINE SOLIDS) – FINE
GRADE FILTER AIDS – MAINLY INTNDED
FOR CLARITY.
2. FAST FLOW RATE (COARSE SOLIDS) –
COARSE GRADE – ACCEPTABLE
FILTERATE .

22. PLATE AND FRAME FILTER
PRESS
• PRINCIPLE : THE MECHANISM IS SURFACE filtration.
THE SLURRY ENTERS THE FRAME BY PRESSURE
AND FLOWS THROUGH THE FILTER MEDIUM.
• THE FILTERATE IS COLLECTED ON THE PLATES
AND SENT TO THE OUTLET.
• A NUMBER OF FRAMES AND PLATES ARE USED SO
THAT SURFACE AREA INCREASES AND
CONSEQUENTLY LARGE VOLUMES OF SLURRY
CAN BE PROCESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH OR
WITHOUT WASHING.
23. CONSTRUCTION -1
• THE FILTER PRESS IS MADE OF TWO TYPES OF
UNITS. THEY ARE :
1. PLATES.
2. FRAMES.
• THESE ARE USUALLY MADE OF ALUMINIUM
ALLOY. SOME TIMES, THESE ARE ALSO
LACQUERED FOR PROTECTION AGAINST
CORROSIVE CHEMICALS AND MADE SUITABLE
FOR STEAM STERILISATION
• FRAME CONSIST AN OPEN SPACE INSIDE
WHEREIN SLURRY RESERVOIR IS MAINTAINED
FOR filtration AND AN INLET TO RECEIVE THE
SLURRY.
24. CONSTRUCTION - 2
• THE PLATE HAS A STUDDED OR GROVED SURFACE TO
SUPPORT THE FILTER CLOTH AND AN OUTLET.
• THE FILTER MEDIUM (USUALLY CLOTH) IS INTERPOSED
BETWEEN PLATE AND PLATES.
• FRAMES OF DIFFERENT THICKNESSES ARE AVAILABLE.IT IS
SELECTED BASED ON THE THICKNESS OF THE CAKE
FORMED DURING filtration.
• PLATE, FILTER MEDIUM, FRAME, FILTER MEDIUM AND PLATE
ARE ARRANGED IN SEQUENCE AND CLAMPED TO A
SUPPORTING STRUCTURE.
• A NUMBER OF PLATES AND FRAMES ARE EMPLOYED SO
THAT filtration AREA IS AS LARGE AS NECESSARY.

CAN BE ARRANGED BY FITTING EYES TO THE PLATES AND
FRAMES.THSES JOIN TOGETHER TO FORM A CHANNAL.
25.
26. WORKING
• WORKING OF THE PLATE AND
FRAME PRESS PROCESS CAN BE
DESCRIBED IN TWO STEPS. THEY
ARE :
1. FILTRATION OPERATION.
2. WASHING OPERATION.
27. 1. FILTRATION OPERATION
• SLURY ENTERS THE FRAME FROM THE FEED CHANNAL AND
PASSES THROUGH THE FILTER MEDIUM ON TO THE SURFACE.
• THE SOLIDS FROM A FILTER CAKE AND REMAIN IN THE FRAME.
• THE THICKNESS OF THE CAKE IS HALF OF THE FRAME THICKNESS,
BECAUSE ON EACH SIDE OF THE FRAME filtration OCCURS.
• THUS TWO FILTER CAKS ARE FORMED, WHICH MEET EVENTUALLY
IN THE CENTER OF THE FRAME.
• IN GENERAL, THERE WILL BE AN OPTIMUM THICKNESS OF THE
FILTER CAKE FOR ANY SLURRY, DEPENDING ON THE SOLID
CONTENT IN THE SLURRY AND THE RESISTANCE OF THE FILTER
CAKE.
• AS filtration PROCEEDS, THE RESISTANCE OF THE CAKE INCREASES
AND THE filtration RATE DECREASES.
• AT A CERTAIN POINT IT IS PREFERABLE TO STOP THE PROCESS
AND START THE NEW ONE.
28. 2.WASHING OPERATION
• PROCEDURE FOR WASHING THE PRESS ARE AS FOLLOWS
:
1. filtration PROCEEDS IN THE ORDINARY WAY UNTIL THE
FRAMES ARE FILLED WITH CAKE.
2. TO WASH THE FILTER CAKE, THE OUTLETS OF THE
WASHING PLATES ARE CLOSED.
3. WASH WATER IS PUMPED INTO THE WASHING CHANNAL.
THE WATER ENTERS THROUGH THE INLETS ON TO THE
SURFACE OF THE WASHING PLATES.
4. WATER PASSES THROUGH THE FILTER CLOTH AND
ENTERS FRAME WHICH CONTAINS THE CAKE. THEN
WATER WASHES THE CAKE, PASSES THROUGH THE
FILTER CLOTH AND ENTERS THE PLATE DOWN THE
SURFACE.
5. FINALLY WASHED WATER ESCAPES THROUGH THE
OUTLET OF THE PLATE.
29.
30. USES OF FILTER PRESS
