What kind of separation method is used for the separation of tea leaves from tea?

The correct answer is: Sieving

Sieving is the use of a sieve to separate small particles from larger particles. It is used in flour mills and on construction sites. At the flour mill, impurities such as husks and stones are separated from wheat. Sieving is used to separate pebbles and stones from sand.  For separating tea leaves from tea, we use the tea strainer as a sieve.
