What is another word for centrifugation?
Pronunciation: [sˌɛntɹɪfjuːɡˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
Centrifugation is commonly known as the process of isolating components of a mixture based on their density using a centrifuge. However, there are several synonyms that can also be used to describe centrifugation. Some of these synonyms include sedimentation, liquid separation, and isolation by density. Sedimentation refers to the process of separating components of a mixture based on their weight or density, often by allowing them to settle to the bottom of a container. Liquid separation is a more general term that can also refer to other methods of separating liquids from each other, such as distillation or filtration. Isolation by density is a more technical term that specifically refers to the use of centrifugation to separate components based on their density gradient.
