What Does CCE Stand For?
CCE stands for Counterflow Centrifugal Elutriation
Counterflow Centrifugal Elutriation (CCE) is a sophisticated separation technique that utilizes centrifugal force to differentiate particles based on their size, shape, and density. This method involves the counterflow of a suspension through a rotating cylindrical chamber, where larger, denser particles are forced outward against the flow, while smaller, lighter particles are carried upward by the fluid. CCE is commonly used in various applications, including mineral processing, biotechnology, and environmental analysis, to achieve high-resolution separations and purifications of complex mixtures. Its efficiency and precision make it a valuable tool in both research and industrial settings.
