A Microfilter is used to represent an equipment resource typically used to host a filtration procedure with a main objective to carry out a concentration operation for removing micron-size particles. This equipment may be used by a batch microfiltration procedure and include other inlet/outlet streams for additional flushing of the equipment, or it may be used by a continuous feed and bleed microfiltration procedure for its main function. The procedure can only be executed in a batch / semi continuous mode.
