A device consisting of a mesh with holes of uniform size. It is used to separate particles above a certain size from solutions or powders.
A tool that is commonly used to sift or separate coarser particles from finer ones is known as a sieve. This device typically features a separating surface that is composed of either woven wire or a sheet of finely perforated metal, with holes that are too small for larger particles to pass through. The utensil is designed with a handle that allows for it to be held and shaken, facilitating the separation process.
