Provided is a porous membrane which has a high water permeability performance, a high blocking performance, and a durability performance against loads of long-term and high operation pressures, which are suitable for filtering applications. The porous membrane includes one surface to be on a side of a filtrate; and the other surface to be on a side of a liquid to be filtered, wherein a surface pore diameter index of the one surface is 2.5 or more, the surface pore diameter index being determined by dividing a pore diameter in a top surface by a pore diameter in a second top surface.

An integrated fracking system includes a substructure assembly including one or more frame rails. The integrated fracking system includes a pump subsystem having a frac pump and a motor. The pump subsystem is coupled to the frame rails of the substructure assembly. The integrated fracking system includes a variable frequency drive, a transformer, and a cooling subsystem, each coupled to the frame rails of the substructure assembly.

An improved technology for inactivation of viruses, for example the SARS-CoV-2 virus that is causing the Covid-19 pandemic, is described. The technology can include a device that includes a substrate coated in a polymer that is infused with a pathogen inactivating material. In various embodiments, at a given time, a portion of the pathogen inactivating material is exposed to the environment, and the device is configured to periodically or intermittently expose additional pathogen inactivating material to the environment. For example, the polymer can be ablative or sacrificial.

A floor cleaner with an air inlet, an air outlet, a suction motor, and a filter. The filter includes a first media layer, a second media layer, an end cap, and an annular cap. The first media layer and the second media layer extend along a filter axis between the end cap and the annular cap. The filter is compressible along the filter axis between the end cap and the annular cap.

The invention relates to a dust collector for gaseous fluids and to a method for manufacturing the dust collector. The dust collector includes one or more filtering assemblies (1) that have filtering elements (2). The filtering elements (2) have a tubular extension. They are kept in contact with each other along a direction parallel to their length; the filtering elements (2) enclose, between them, flow channels (3). The method for manufacturing a filtering assembly (1) of the dust collector includes the steps of: permanently deforming a sheet of a filtering material so as to obtain a corrugated sheet (8) with a cross-section defined by repetitions of ′Ω-shaped forms that are connected to each other; and coupling two deformed sheets, so as to keep the straight parts of the ′Ω-shaped forms in contact and to obtain rows of filtering elements (2).
