Effect of the particle shape on flow through porous media

In order to study the performance of shaped particles flow in porous media, filtration of two different shape - spherical and rod-like – micro particles was performed through a porous bed. Filtration was investigated at a constant flow rate of 0.04 cm/s with yeast cells, diameter 5 microns, micro sp...
