Environmental Monitoring and Control
Filtration is the process of separating solid particles from liquids or gases using a porous material that allows the fluid to pass through while retaining the solid particles. This method is essential for removing contaminants and impurities from water, thereby improving water quality and making it safe for consumption and other uses. It is closely linked to understanding pollution sources and the importance of effective treatment methods for maintaining environmental health.
