The invention concerns a method for producing a carbon fibre, that comprises a step of preparing a continuous fibre made of cellulose from cotton fabrics, by extracting, from these fabrics, cotton in the form of short, discontinuous fibres, and implementing a solvent spinning process; this step being followed by a step of carbonising said obtained continuous fibre made from cellulose, in order to form a carbon fibre. This carbon fibre can be used, in particular, for producing articles made from composite material made from carbon fibres and polymer organic resin.

An object of the present invention is to provide a filtering device which makes it possible to obtain a chemical liquid having excellent performance and enables filter media to have sufficiently long pot life. Another object of the present invention is to provide a purification device, a chemical liquid manufacturing device, a filtered substance to be purified, a chemical liquid, and an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition. A filtering device according to an embodiment of the present invention has a first filter unit including a first filter, which satisfies at least one condition selected from the group consisting of following conditions 1 to 3, and a housing accommodating the first filter and a second filter unit including a second filter different from the first filter and a housing accommodating the second filter, in which the first filter unit and the second filter unit are independently disposed in a pipe line through which a substance to be purified is supplied. Condition 1: the filter has a filter medium including two or more layers containing materials different from each other. Condition 2: the filter has a filter medium including two or more layers having different pore structures. Condition 3: the filter has a filter medium including one layer in which different materials are mixed together.

The present disclosure generally relates to methods for deoiling a hydrocarbon feed and to products formed therefrom. In an embodiment is provided a method of deoiling a feed that includes introducing a waxy feed and a deoiling solvent to a dilution chilling zone; mixing the waxy feed and the deoiling solvent in the dilution chilling zone at a temperature of from about 10° F. to about 30° F. to form a slurry; introducing the slurry to a filter zone, the filter zone comprising one or more filter stages, wherein a temperature of the slurry is from about 40° F. to about 75° F.; separating the wax from the oil and the deoiling solvent to form a wax cake in a first filter stage; and washing the wax cake in the first filter stage with the deoiling solvent to obtain a composition comprising a wax. In another embodiment is provided a composition comprising a wax.
