decantation : pouring a liquid from one container to another without disturbing the sediment (you can decant wine)

panning : To wash (gravel, for example) in a pan for gold or other precious metal.

Sluicing : a method used to separate gold by washing with water using large hoses to direct streams of water onto hillsides which contain gold

Floatation : This is done by pouring water etc. into a container to let the solid float on top.This can be done to separate weevils from rice

that’s all i can think of now…Hope that helps you

basically, spinning is used for things with different masses, panning I think is the same as filtering .. is used for different particle sizes .. things that don’t dissolve altogether like starch solution.. decantation is used for different densities .. oil and water. It’s been a while since my school days, so if I’m wrong please correct me, anyone?
