There are alternatives to an air gap, like a Studor vent or a loop and trap design, but an air gap is the simplest and most popular solution.  

A standard dishwasher size is 24-by-24-by-35-inch for a built-in unit. The depth and height line up perfectly with most kitchen countertops and cabinet sizes.

How long it takes to remove a dishwasher depends on how quickly you can work and the positioning of the appliance. In most cases, you can expect to remove a dishwasher in one to two hours. If the connections are older, you’ll need to use a bit more elbow grease to loosen them. This can make the process a bit longer.

Your dishwasher drains through a hose that attaches to the plumbing below your sink or snakes out the back of your machine. In most cases, you can access one side of the hose from below your sink, as it usually ties into the same drainline that your sink uses. Otherwise, you may need to pull the dishwasher out of the counter to access it.

While the exact appearance of the filter will depend on your dishwasher brand, it often consists of a cylindrical or rectangular mesh or plastic component. The filter is located at the bottom of the dishwasher beneath the lower spray arm. It includes a combination of a coarse filter, which traps larger food particles, and a finer filter, which captures smaller debris. The filter assembly may be a single unit or a multi-part system that can be twisted or snapped out for cleaning.
