Please find below links to sites that discuss various matters concerning Solid-Liquid Separation:
It is strongly recommended to review the site which is written by Richard Holdich with emphasis on interactive simulation and modelling methods to better understand the parameters behind filtration and sedimentation processes. This unique site provides a pre-piloting assessment and elimination procedure in the selection of equipment with very interesting spreadsheets. As such, my site compliments Richard's site since mine is aimed mainly to describe separation equipment and the associated process and maintenance problems that face plant engineers.
The Filtration Society in the UK is a charitable, non-profit organisation established to advance and disseminate knowledge in the design and use of filtration and separation techniques in industry, commerce and other walks of life. It organises and supports many meetings and conferences each year and regularly publishes technical articles and papers.
AFS is the premier organization in North America dedicated to R&D, problem solutions and technology transfer in fluid-particle separation for the benefit of industrial processes, individual health and a clean environment.
