Filter installations for suspended matter in flowing fluids, including filtration methods, uses and equipment and plants with filter installations. A device reducing the specific particle count of suspended matter by means of an energy input using ultrasound waves stabilized with electronic feedback loops and their harmonics in the fluids or in objects attached thereto. A flow pipe having a wall, which, on its outer side, its inner side, and/or in the wall has pairs of mutually opposite exciters of longitudinal waves and their harmonics, and/or reflectors, opposite the exciters of the flow pipe to a filter, which keeps the specific particle counts of the suspended matter in the filtered fluids to below the detectable limit.

A waste gas purification system includes a gas container, a gas input unit, a gas output unit, and a contaminant capturing apparatus disposed in the gas container. The contaminant capturing apparatus includes a driver device, and a capturing device to be driven by the driver device. The driver device includes two rollers, and the capturing device includes a tape disposed to continuously move from one roller to another roller when the rollers are rotating. The tape has a surface coated with an adhesive to purify waste gas entering from the gas input unit by capturing particulate matter in the waste gas before being discharged via the gas output unit.

Vibrator is used to move circular strings in a harp-like screen to achieve frequencies corresponding with one of the natural frequencies of the strings as well as with the frequencies of gas vortices shedding off the strings in order to more efficiently: a) scrub particulates/droplets (solid or liquid) from the gas, b) exchange and utilize energy between the oncoming cold or hot gas and a liquid flowing down the screens in order to heat or cool the liquid, and c) agitate and, without clogging, more efficiently remove the liquid film streaming down the strings, i.e., to increase the sliding efficiency of the liquid flowing down the strings. With the strings vibrating in the resonant regime, particulate capture and energy and mass transfer are substantially enhanced compared to non-resonant, passive systems in which strings do not vibrate, or where vibrations are induced solely by the gas flow.

A waste gas purification system includes a gas container, a driver, a gas input unit, a gas output unit and a contaminant capturing apparatus. The gas input unit is for entrance of waste gas into the gas container, and is to be driven by the driver into movement. The gas output unit is for discharge of the waste gas out of the gas container after the waste gas is purified. The contaminant capturing apparatus is disposed in the gas container, and includes a capture device that purifies the waste gas by using an adhesive to adhere particulate matter in the waste gas.

This disclosure relates to aggregating, neutralizing, and filtering ultra-fine particles in fluids such as air and water. Fluid may be drawn from an ambient environment into a neutralization chamber. Within the neutralization chamber, particles in the fluid may be agglomerated. An acoustic field may be applied to the fluid to agglomerate the particles. The agglomerated particles may be exposed to light. The light may denature or deactivate the agglomerated particles. The agglomerated and inert particles maybe passed through a filter. After agglomeration and neutralization, the fluid may be released back into the ambient environment.

An apparatus (1) for thermal denitration of a uranyl nitrate hydrate to uranium trioxide UO3. The apparatus (1) comprises a burner (114) and a reaction chamber (110) configured to carry out thermal denitration of uranyl nitrate hydrate and to form uranium trioxide UO3 in the form of particles. The apparatus also comprises a separating chamber (120) suitable for separating UO3 particles from the gases resulting from the thermal denitration carried out in the reaction chamber (110), and at least one filter (130) configured for purifying the gases. The separating chamber (120) is a decanting chamber into which the reaction chamber (110) directly opens out. The filter (130) is capable of performing the separation at a temperature greater than or equal to 350° C. The invention also relates to use of such an apparatus, to a thermal denitration process and to UO3 particles obtained by such a process.
