A portable air filter and method of use are provided. The portable air filter includes a semi-permeable air filter, optionally disposed within a frame. An attachment surface, such as an adhesive, is disposed on the frame, for attaching the portable air filter to an air vent. In certain embodiments, a second air filter and frame are slidably connected to the frame. If the portable air filter is not disposed within a frame, the portable air filter is cut to fit over an air vent, and an adhesive, such as tape, is provided for a user to attach the cut filter to fit over the air vent. The method includes attaching the portable air filter to an air vent by pressing the adhesive to a wall, ceiling, or floor such that the portable air filter covers the air vent. The invention is useful for improving air quality in a variety of spaces, including in an airplane, in a hotel, on a cruise ship, on a travel bus, and other public spaces.

A filter module for filtering a fluid flow includes: a plurality of filter elements arranged parallel to one another in a fluid channel. A sensor is mounted on each filter element of the plurality of filter elements, each sensor being determining a loading state of a corresponding filter element. Each of the plurality of filter elements is a filter cartridge including plated filter medium. Each sensor is a flow sensor.

An adjustable filter track system for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a filter track including a guideway and a bracket that form a recess configured to receive a first filter in a first configuration of the adjustable filter track system, a plurality of receptacles formed in the guideway and aligned along a length of the guideway, and a plurality of inserts, where, in a second configuration of the adjustable filter track system, each insert of the plurality of inserts is configured to be disposed in a corresponding receptacle of the plurality of receptacles and extend outwardly from the guideway to secure a second filter between the plurality of inserts and the bracket, where the second filter has a different thickness than the first filter.

Disclosed is glue-free airtight filtering equipment comprising a filter housing, a plurality of filter elements and a plurality of receiving supporting elements, each filter element having a filtering surface, the plurality of filter elements being detachably disposed in the filtering space in a manner that the filtering surface is parallel to the upper surface and the bottom surface of the filter housing, and the plurality of receiving supporting elements allocating on an inner wall of the filter housing and being spaced apart from each other with a designated distance so as to correspondingly receive and support the plurality of filter elements, wherein a gap is provided between the filter element and the inner wall of the filter housing, and the filtering surface of the filter element and the maximum value of the gap satisfy a relational expression.

A fluidized bed spray drying system for drying liquid into powder including an elongated drying chamber, a spray nozzle assembly at an upper end of the drying chamber and a powder collection chamber at a lower end of the drying chamber. A drying gas inlet is provided in the powder collection chamber and a drying gas outlet is provided at an upper end of the drying chamber. A plurality of cylindrical filter elements at the upper end of the drying chamber are in communication with the exhaust gas outlet for filtering drying gas borne powder from drying gas exiting the drying chamber.

The powder drying system comprises a powder processing unit (1), and a filter unit (400) defining a central vertical axis (405) and including a filtering chamber (401) accommodating a plurality of bag filters (407), each having a bag filter wall and a top opening, a top portion (402), and an exhaust chamber (403) at or near the top portion (402). The filtering chamber (401) is provided with an inlet (410) configured to allow entry of powder carrying gas to be filtered, and the exhaust chamber (403) has an outlet (420) configured to allow exhaust of filtered gas. In the filtering chamber (401), gas flows through the wall of the bag filters (407), upwards and out through the top opening of the bag filters (407), into the exhaust chamber (403) and further to the outlet (420). the inlet (410) of the filtering chamber (401) is positioned at the top portion (402) of the filter unit (400), and that said inlet (410) includes at least one inlet duct section (415) adjacent the filtering chamber (401) and arranged substantially centrally in the top portion (402) of the filter unit (400).

An expandable air filter device. The air filter device includes first and second air filter units and an expansion joint. The air filter units each include a filter media assembly and an outer frame assembly. The filter media assembly defines a perimeter. The outer frame assembly is arranged around the perimeter. The expansion joint is connected to and extends between the outer frame assembly of the first air filter unit and the outer frame assembly of the second air filter unit. In some embodiments, the expansion joint is expandable from a collapsed state to an expanded state. A gap between the first and second air filter units is greater in the expanded state than in the collapsed state, with the expansion joint spanning the gap, serving to impede flow of un-filtered air through the gap during use.

Systems and methods of filtering with filter assemblies including a frame having a header structure, an end cap structure, and a plurality of side plates coupling the header structure to the end cap structure are provided. The filter pleated media may include an upstream surface and a downstream surface opposite the upstream surface in a direction of flow through the filter assembly, and the filter pleated media may include a pleated configuration. The filter assemblies may further include a support member coupled to a portion of the frame and along at least one of the upstream surface or the downstream surface of the filter pleated media.
