WHAT DOES ULTRAFILTRATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

ultrafiltration

Ultrafiltration

Ultrafiltration is a variety of membrane filtration in which forces like pressure or concentration gradients leads to a separation through a semipermeable membrane. Suspended solids and solutes of high molecular weight are retained in the so-called retentate, while water and low molecular weight solutes pass through the membrane in the permeate. This separation process is used in industry and research for purifying and concentrating macromolecular solutions, especially protein solutions. Ultrafiltration is not fundamentally different from microfiltration. Both of these separate based on size exclusion or particle capture. It is fundamentally different from membrane gas separation, which separate based on different amounts of absorption and different rates of diffusion. Ultrafiltration membranes are defined by the Molecular Weight Cut Off of the membrane used. Ultrafiltration is applied in cross-flow or dead-end mode.

Definition of ultrafiltration in the English dictionary

The definition of ultrafiltration in the dictionary is the process of separating very small particles from a suspension or colloidal solution with a filter that has small pores.
