12 Pages • Essays / Projects • Year Uploaded: 2023
Sieving is the basic method of separating particles into different sizes for analysis. Sieving depends on the particles size, shape, and position in the sieve. The experiment used British Standard sieve whereby the size of the sieve is represented by a mesh number which represents number of openings per linear inch of sieve. Particle size analysis by sieving is important in various industrial applications, especially in chemical engineering industry to understand the size of the catalyst used in the packed bed reactor and for the purpose of quality control in various salt, sugar, flour, or powder industries. The experiment was conducted with a set of sieves arranged in the mesh number of 45 at the top followed by 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, and lastly 170 as the last sieve.
