This lesson covers the concept of flow through porous media, focusing on the interception of suspended solids and the migration of fines. It explains how the deposition of fines leads to changes in permeability, a process also known as deep filtration. The lesson further discusses the continuity of mass particles, the deposition of suspended particles, and the accumulation of suspended particles in the void space. It also elaborates on the concept of permeability and its relation to the volume of particles.

- The flow through porous media involves the interception of suspended solids and the migration of fines.
- The deposition of fines can lead to changes in permeability, a process also known as deep filtration.
- The continuity of mass particles, the deposition of suspended particles, and the accumulation of suspended particles in the void space are crucial aspects of this process.
- The concept of permeability is closely related to the volume of particles.
