MRI as a key tool for understanding and modeling the filtration kinetics of fibrous media.
Applying MRI techniques to low-density fibrous filter media provides us with unique information about the initial structure and deposited mass within the same filter sample. This now enables us to obtain the necessary link between structure and deposition for validation and further enhancement of modeling filtration kinetics. However, additional work is needed before achieving a realistic understanding of filtration kinetics.
