 | Additional InfoAdditional Background Sieves are the simplest methods of separating particles, and there are even sieves with pores so fine that they can separate molecules. Most naturally occuring solids are not porous, but zeolite is a natural mineral that is rich in pores and it is frequently used as a filter. Frontier scientists are busy inventing new materials whose pore size can be controlled. |
