HOW GOOD IS YOUR FILTER?

List each of the filters you used to reduce the particulate matter in the dirty water.

Which filters worked the best to remove particulate matter from the dirty water? (Note: Refer to the turbidity meter readings you obtained to make this judgment).

Describe variations in the size of the particulate each filter removed from the water and explain why such variations exist among the types of filters used.

Based on your results, identify a preferred order in which two or more of the five filters you tested should be used to most effectively reduce particulate matter in the water. Why would it NOT be advisable to immediately start with the filter with the smallest size pores?
