In a laboratory experiment, John uses a mesh to separate soil particles from water. Which technique of separation is he using?

The technique that John is using is the filtration technique. Filtration is a technique to separate the solid which is insoluble from the liquid. For instance: Sand and water, sand is insoluble, thus it stays in the filter paper, while the water proceeds through the filter paper.
