An aqueous fluid filter assembly with aeration mitigation includes a cap, a bowl engaging the cap and defining a filter volume, and a filter element disposed in the filter volume. The filter element is sealed against an interior of the cap and an interior of the bowl to provide an unfiltered volume and a filtered volume. An inlet is in fluid communication with the unfiltered volume and an outlet is in fluid communication with the filtered volume via a pickup section. The pickup section has a pick-up section inlet extending into the filtered volume and an air-metering orifice, wherein the air-metering orifice has a diameter less than 30% of the diameter of the pick-up section inlet and the pick-up section inlet is located below the air-metering orifice.

A filtration system includes a filter housing and a filter cartridge. The filter housing includes a base and a cover removably coupled to the base. The cover includes a retainer. The filter cartridge has a longitudinal axis and is movable between an installed position within the filter housing and an uninstalled position outside the filter housing. The filter cartridge includes a top endplate including at least one protrusion extending upwardly away from the top endplate. The protrusion includes a tab extending radially outward from the protrusion that is structured to interact with the retainer to removably couple the filter cartridge to the cover. The filter cartridge further includes a bottom endplate and a filter media extending axially between the top endplate and the bottom endplate.

Disclosed is a filtration device for a liquid, including: at least two superimposed layers of filter media having weld lines creating strips between them, the layers of filter media having weld lines being superimposed such that the weld lines of one layer form, with the weld lines of the other layer, a mesh structure when viewed at an angle normal to the layers of filter media; a first external face and a second external face each being produced at least locally from a water-permeable material, the layers of filter media being positioned between the external faces; and an intake connector used for drawing liquid in through the filtration device.

A device for filtering liquids includes a tank, a tank inlet for introducing a liquid to be filtered into the tank, a tank outlet for a retentate, and at least one rotor rotatably drivable around a tank axis, the at least one rotor having a hollow shaft supported in an end wall and attached thereto a support device for filter elements arranged at a distance from the tank axis, the filter elements being fluidically connected to the hollow shaft for discharging a filtered permeate from the tank, wherein an inner lateral surface of the tank comprises at least one guide for diverting the liquid toward the filter elements. At least one of the at least one guide forms a receptacle for at least one conditioning device for adjusting process conditions.

Apparatuses and methods for improved operation of a fluid purification system. The apparatuses and methods may include an evaporator chamber and a filter chamber and include directing compressed air into the air inlet of an evaporator chamber, drying the compressed air before directing the compressed air into the air inlet of the evaporator chamber, reducing pressure at the air outlet of the evaporator chamber to less than atmospheric pressure, collecting material exiting the evaporator chamber through the air outlet in a particulate bottle, and drawing air from the particulate bottle into the air inlet of the evaporator chamber.

A filtration system for a tank includes a filter housing, at least a portion of which is disposed in a tank and in fluidic communication with a dielectric fluid within the tank; at least one filtration element, disposed within the filter housing; and a fluid pump, at least a portion of which is disposed within the filter housing and immersed in the dielectric fluid, the fluid pump in fluidic communication with the at least one filtration element.
