Sedimentation is the deposition of sediments. It takes place when particles in suspension settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come

Sedimentation rate may refer to: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, a medical test for inflammation Rate of sedimentation (geology), thickness of sediment

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR or sed rate) is the rate at which red blood cells in anticoagulated whole blood descend in a standardized tube

Sedimentation equilibrium in a suspension of different particles, such as molecules, exists when the rate of transport of each material in any one direction

In chemistry, the sedimentation coefficient (s) of a particle characterizes its sedimentation (tendency to settle out of suspension) during centrifugation

The physical process of sedimentation (the act of depositing sediment) has applications in water treatment, whereby gravity acts to remove suspended solids

metric unit for sedimentation coefficients. The Svedberg unit offers a measure of a particle's size indirectly based on its sedimentation rate under acceleration

settling pond or decant pond is an earthen or concrete structure using sedimentation to remove settleable matter and turbidity from wastewater. The basins

Sedimentation potential occurs when dispersed particles move under the influence of either gravity or centrifugation or electricity in a medium. This

separate organelles and other sub-cellular particles based on their sedimentation rate. Although often applied in biological analysis, differential centrifugation
