Gravity Filters

Gravity filters are devices that use gravity to help separate solids from liquids or to purify fluids. When you pour a liquid through a gravity filter, gravity pulls the liquid downward through a filtering medium like paper, sand, or mesh. This medium traps particles, dirt, or impurities, allowing only cleaner liquid to pass through. They’re commonly used in water purification, laboratories, and cooking to clarify liquids or remove unwanted substances. The process relies solely on gravity, making it simple, energy-efficient, and effective for general filtration needs.
