A filter that includes a filter base portion having a first main surface and a second main surface opposite to the first main surface, the filter base portion defining multiple first through-holes and one or multiple second through-holes penetrating between the first main surface and the second main surface, the one or multiple second through-holes being larger in size than the multiple first through-holes. The filter base portion having a first region on a center side of a filter, a second region on an outer periphery side of the filter relative to the first region, and a third region between the second region and an outer periphery of the filter. The one or multiple second through-holes are in the second region, and a ratio of an opening area of the one or multiple second through-holes is less than a ratio of an opening area of the multiple first through-holes.

A fluid filtration system includes a fluid storage vessel such as a bioreactor, a filter housing including a filter element disposed therein, a pump coupled between the fluid storage vessel and the filter housing, and a flow diverter disposed between the pump and the filter housing. The pump is configured to move fluid from the fluid storage vessel through the filter element, and the flow diverter is configured for selectively directing fluid received from the pump to the first or second end of the filter housing. In a first mode of operation, the flow diverter directs flow through the filter housing in a first direction, while in a second mode of operation, the flow diverter directs flow through the filter housing in a second direction opposite the first direction.

Disclosed here is a composite filter media having at least one nanofiber layer bonded to a substrate layer, the at least one nanofiber layer optionally having a plurality of nanofibers having a geometric mean diameter of less than or equal to 0.5 μm, the at least one nanofiber layer having a thickness of about 1-100 μm.

A fuel filter assembly includes a filter bowl body including a bottom wall, the bottom wall having a concave feature. The fuel filter assembly includes an electro-static discharge (ESD) pin at least partially positioned within in the concave feature. A method for discharging electro-static in a fuel filter assembly includes providing a filter bowl body including a bottom wall, the bottom wall having a concave feature. The method includes discharging electro-static by positioning an ESD pin at least partially within the concave feature.

A filter element comprises a filter media and a restriction indicator device. The restriction indicator device comprises an attachment portion and a movable portion. The attachment portion is attachable to a portion of the filter assembly. The movable portion is movable relative to the attachment portion between a non-buckled position and a buckled position. The movable portion moves from the non-buckled position to the buckled position once a predetermined pressure drop between an upstream side and a downstream side of the movable portion of the restriction indicator device is met.

A water treatment system having a base assembly and a treatment assembly. The treatment assembly of the system may be configured to filter particulates from water. The base assembly may include a UV reactor operable to disinfect water for consumption.

A method and system is provided for treating waste generated from manufacturing operations including at least one of Printed Circuit Boards Fabrication (PCB FAB), General Metal Finishing (GMF), semiconductors manufacturing, chemical milling, and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD). The method and system are used to create zero liquid discharge recycling.
