Question

What is the difference between filtration and sieving ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In sieving, particles that are too big to pass through the holes of the sieve are retained (see particle size distribution). In filtration, a multilayer lattice retains those particles that are unable to follow the tortuous channels of the filter.
