refiltering

Second pass through

Refiltering is filtering something again, typically because the first pass was insufficient or conditions have changed.

In computing, refiltering means applying filter criteria a second time to a dataset: The app keeps refiltering the results every time I scroll.

In physical processes, liquids or air may need refiltering to remove remaining impurities.
