As a fluid-solid separation process, deep bed filters are most                  effective in removing small amounts of fine particles from mass                 quantities of liquid.  Traditionally, the process is used primarily in          treating water supplies.  In more recent years, its application has             been extended to a number of fields, including waste water treatment,           removal of solids from feed stocks entering catalytic reactors,                 purification of molten metal (aluminum) to insure the quality of the            metal ingot, and pretreatment of feed streams involved in many                  separation operations, such as membrane and fixed-bed adsorption                processes.  A significant part of recent efforts is directed toward             achieving a better understanding of the various phenomena associated            with the filtration process.  This effort will investigate the                  transient behavior of deep bed filters--specifically, the dynamic               change in filtrate quality and pressure drop will be measured in a              controlled set of experiments and correlated with analytical models of          particle reentrainment.
