Data are reported on the formation of filter cakes under pressure where the particles are largely
finer than about 10 μm. The data are analysed through two consecutive mechanisms, filtration
and consolidation. Process design parameters for each mechanism are obtained, which will allow
calculations to be made from small scale experiments. The magnitude and dependence of the
constitutive parameters on pressure, pH, particle size and shape, and the nature of the particleparticle
interactions are shown.
