Abstract

Coagulated particles having a low water content are separated and recovered from an emulsified dispersion of fluorine-containing polymer particles. A solid-liquid separation method comprising: a step for adding a coagulant in an emulsified dispersion of fluorine-containing polymer particles to coagulate the fluorine-containing polymer particles with stirring and obtain a slurry of coagulated particles, a step for filtrating the slurry, and a step for pressing the obtained cake. It is preferable to continuously carry out the filtration step and pressing step with a filter press or a belt press. Also a washing step may be provided after the filtration step.
