Notes:
The main problems which are relevant to a fundamental understanding of deep bed filtration are the nature of and the conditions leading to the retention of particles throughout a filter bed, the change of the filter media structure due to deposition, and its effect on filter performance. The purpose of this review is to discuss in a systematic manner the more recent advances in the investigation of all these problems. A reasonably complete understanding of the pertinent phenomena is essential for the establishment of a comprehensive deep bed filtration theory which can be used as a basis of rational design.
