Bank filtration plant in Mainz, Germany. Extraction well on small hill visible in foreground. The Rhine is several dozen meters to the right outside of the picture. River Bank filtration is a type of filtration that works by passing water to be purified for use as drinking water through the Banks of a river or lake.

The teeth of plankton-feeders, such as the basking shark and whale shark, are greatly reduced and non-functional. These sharks filter feed on prey by opening their mouths to let tiny organisms get sucked into their mouths to feed without using their teeth at all, instead filtering the food when passing water through their gills.

An earlier view of 44458, this time passing Water Orton. The London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Fowler Class 4F is a class of 0-6-0 steam locomotive designed for medium freight work. They represent the ultimate development of Midland Railway's six coupled tender engines. Many trainspotters knew them as "Duck Sixes", a nickname derived from their wheel arrangement.

Some teleost fish have also developed jet propulsion, passing water through the gills to supplement fin-driven motion. In some dragonfly larvae, jet propulsion is achieved by the expulsion of water from a specialised cavity through the anus. Given the small size of the organism, a great speed is achieved. Scallops and cardiids, siphonophores, tunicates (such as salps), and some jellyfish also employ jet propulsion.

The process of mechanical filtration removes particulate material from the water column. This particulate matter may include uneaten food, feces or plant or algal debris. Mechanical filtration is typically achieved by passing water through materials which act as a sieve, physically trapping the particulate matter. Removal of solid waste can be as simple as physical hand netting of debris, and/or involve highly complex equipment.

When other chemists later showed water is produced when burning hydrogen and that rusting of metals added weight to them and that passing water over hot iron gave hydrogen, Scheele modified his theory to suggest that oxygen was the salt (or "saline principle" of water), and that when added to iron, water was reproduced, which added weight to the iron as rust. Pyrolusite or MnO2.

Insoluble solids, such as granite, diamond, and platinum, are diluted by grinding them with lactose ("trituration"). Fluxion, which dilutes the substance by continuously passing water through the vial, and radionic preparation methods of preparation do not require succussion. Three main logarithmic dilution scales are in regular use in homeopathy. Hahnemann created the "centesimal" or "C scale", diluting a substance by a factor of 100 at each stage.

This process is only viable for coarse ores that have a close size distribution as the apertures can allow small particles to pass through. Sedimentation operates by passing water into a large thickener or clarifier. In these devices, the particles settle out of the slurry under the effects of gravity, or centripetal forces. These are limited by the surface chemistry of the particles and the size of the particles.

"I have not been able to sleep for several nights, and have been feverish and nervous."Letter 200 from The Hague, circa 23 May 1882. (Hulsker September 1958 assigns it the range 16 to 26 May) and "For three weeks I have been suffering from insomnia and low fever, and passing water was painful." -- Letter 206 from The Hague, 8 or 9 June 1882 On occasions he sunk into a kind of stupor.

Ophiocoma echinata uses its arms to burrow in the sand and anchor itself in crevices. It holds some of its arms vertically in the passing water current to filter food particles, catching them with the spines and passing them along feeding channels to the mouth. The stomach is entirely within the central disc and is the organ of food storage. Reproduction takes place over a prolonged breeding season with gametes being shed directly into the sea without any synchronisation.

The modes of feeding vary greatly between the different echinoderm taxa. Crinoids and some brittle stars tend to be passive filter-feeders, enmeshing suspended particles from passing water; most sea urchins are grazers, sea cucumbers deposit feeders and the majority of starfish are active hunters. Crinoids are suspension feeders and spread their arms wide to catch particles floating past. These are caught by the tube feet on the pinnules, moved into the ambulacral grooves, wrapped in mucus and conveyed to the mouth by the cilia lining the grooves.

It mainly consumes red and green algae and diatoms which it catches by raising one or more of its arms into the passing water current while keeping its disc concealed. If an arm is attacked by a predator it can easily break off in a process known as autotomy, and the brittle star can later regenerate a new limb. The sexes are separate in Ophionereis reticulata and spawning takes place once a year. The ophiopluteus larvae are planktonic and after passing through several larval stages, settle on the seabed and undergo metamorphosis into juveniles.

During the studies, they found abundant forms of deep-water life, such as blue sharks, swordfishes, cold-water corals, clams, and deep-sea oysters. In this canyon, the coral species can live in darkness and get their food from the passing water, which differed from the tropical corals that need sunlight to survive. Another expedition team from NIOZ also studied that layers with high concentrations of suspended particles in the canyon, which called nepheloid layers, contribute significantly to the transport of matter that formed a good condition for the high diversity of the canyon's fauna.

Wetlands support a vast and intricate food web which provides many functions and services to nature and humans. Wetlands aid in water filtration by removing excess nutrients, slowing the water allowing particulates to settle out of the water which can then be absorbed into plant roots. Studies have shown that up to 92% of phosphorus and 95% of nitrogen can be removed from passing water through a wetland.Ducks Unlimited Canada > Wetland and Waterfowl Conservation > Value of Wetlands > Filter our water Wetlands also let pollutants settle and stick to soil particles, up to 70% of sediments in runoff.

Under these conditions the inlet coolant temperature is 120 °F (49 °C), the corresponding exit temperature is 156 °F (69 °C), and the pressure drop through the core is about 110 psi (7.58 x 105 Pa). From the reactor, the coolant flow is distributed to three of four identical heat exchanger and circulation pump combinations, each located in a separate cell adjacent to the reactor and storage pools. Each cell also contains a letdown valve that controls the primary coolant pressure. A secondary coolant system removes heat from the primary system and transfers it to the atmosphere by passing water over a four-cell induced-draft cooling tower.

A. Catarina B. V. Dias "Chlor-Alkali Membrane Cell Process", Doctoral dissertation, University of Porto There are membrane cells with different membrane models. In some of them an ion exchange membrane is used which is able to move the cations and anions from one side to the other side. In this type of cell brine solution enters from one side and water from the other side.E.T. Igunnu and G. Z. Chen "Produced water treatment technologies", international Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies Advance Access, 2012. The half reaction in the cathode chamber is as follows: :2NaCl + 2H2O + 2e−→ 2NaOH + 2Cl−\+ H2 At the anode side, part of the chloride ions are oxidized and dissolved in the passing water in the forms of Cl2, HOCl and small amounts of ClO2.

The gas used was water gas, i.e. the mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide obtained by passing water over white hot coke. The benefit of using water gas generated from steam rather than the steam itself was said to be a factor of 30, plus the weight of the engine was said to be 600 pounds compared to 2 to 3 tons for an equivalent steam engine. This experiment had been funded by the Canal Gas Engine Company, who met the same day and after discussing the experiments in spite of acknowledging the success of the trial decided to wind up the company rather than raise further funds.Canal Gas Engine Company, Public Ledger and Daily Advertiser, 2 Feb 1827 In 1832 Brown demonstrated three of his engines of different types and construction at his premises at Eagle Lodge, Old Brompton.Brown's Gas Vacuum Engine, Evening Mail, 27 Jul 1832 All three engines were in operation and one was of the same type as had been operating successfully on the Croydon Canal raising water from a lower to a higher level since June 1830.

Sodium hydroxide was first prepared by soap makers.Thorpe, Thomas Edward, ed., A Dictionary of Applied Chemistry (London, England: Longmans, Green, and Co., 1913), vol. 5, A procedure for making sodium hydroxide appeared as part of a recipe for making soap in an Arab book of the late 13th century: Al- mukhtara` fi funun min al-suna` (Inventions from the Various Industrial Arts), which was compiled by al-Muzaffar Yusuf ibn `Umar ibn `Ali ibn Rasul (d. 1295), a king of Yemen.See: History of Science and Technology in Islam: Description of Soap MakingThe English chemist and archaeologist Henry Ernest Stapleton (1878–1962) presented evidence that the Persian alchemist and physician Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi (854–925) knew about sodium hydroxide. See: Henry Ernest Stapleton; R. F. Azo; M. Hid'yat Ḥusain (1927) "Chemistry in 'Iraq and Persia in the Tenth Century A.D.," Memoirs of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 8 (6) : 317–418 ; see p. 322. The recipe called for passing water repeatedly through a mixture of alkali (Arabic: al-qily, where qily is ash from saltwort plants, which are rich in sodium ; hence alkali was impure sodium carbonate)Stapleton, H. E. and Azo, R. F. (1905) "Alchemical equipment in the eleventh century, A.D.," Memoirs of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1 : 47–71 ; see footnote 5 on p. 53.
