Explanation
Filtration is a process by which insoluble solids can be removed from a liquid by using a filter paper. A filter paper is a special type of paper which has pores that are tiny enough to let only liquids pass through it. If you pass a solution through filter paper, any undissolved solid particles will get left behind on the paper whereas the liquid will filter through. The liquid that passes through is called the filtrate and the undissolved solid particles are called residue.
The components of the mixture are salt and sand. Salt is soluble in water and sand is a non-water soluble substance that can be separated by the process of filtration. The insoluble sand remains in the filter paper while the filtrate contains the dissolved salt.
If the size of the particle is too small to be picked by hand then sieving is used for separating substances. A sieve having pores of certain size is used. The bigger particles are retained by the sieve whereas the smaller particle are passed through it. For example, this method is used for separating bran from flour, sand from gravel, pearls of different sizes,etc.
Combine harvesters are machines that harvest, threshes, and winnows in a single operation. Combine harvesters are used in developed countries like the USA. In India, these machines can be seen in the farms of Punjab.
