New data are reported on the formation of filter cakes. Cake formation data are analysed through
two consecutive mechanisms, filtration and consolidation. Process design parameters for each
mechanism are obtained from the models which might allow calculations to be made from small
scale experiments. The magnitude and dependence of the constitutive parameters on pressure,
pH and surface charge, particle size and shape, and the nature of the particle-particle interactions
are shown through the experimental results.
