ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are method and apparatus for filtering particles and gels from cellulose ester dope by passing the dope in plug flow through a tubular filter so as to cause particles and gels to migrate towards the center of the stream and shear forces along the filter walls to reduce the viscosity so that the boundary layer will exude through the filter walls. The concentrate containing the particles and gels is thereby separated from the filtrate.
