solid/liquid mixtures has been used to analyse cake formation during the pressure leaf filtration of
aqueous based mineral suspensions. The experimental data are interpreted through so-called
‘modern filtration theory’ which serves to highlight some of the difficulties that currently exist in the
areas of both modelling and scale-up in solid/liquid separation.
