Sieving is a process used to separate particles of different sizes from a mixture. It involves passing the mixture through a sieve, which is a device with a mesh or perforated surface. The smaller particles pass through the holes in the sieve, while the larger particles are retained on top. This method is commonly used in industries such as mining, agriculture, and food processing to separate materials of different sizes for further processing or analysis.

Sieving, a fundamental technique employed in various industries, encompasses the meticulous separation of particles with distinct sizes from a heterogeneous mixture. This intricate process entails the utilization of a sieve, an apparatus characterized by a finely woven mesh or a meticulously perforated surface. As the mixture is carefully poured onto the sieve, the smaller particles effortlessly traverse through the minuscule apertures, while the larger particles, unable to navigate through the sieve’s intricate network, remain atop. This sophisticated method finds extensive application in diverse sectors, including but not limited to mining, agriculture, and food processing, where it serves as a pivotal means to segregate materials of varying dimensions, thereby facilitating subsequent processing or meticulous analysis.
