A method and/or a system filters particles using a screen with modular segments installed into a frame. The frame has a perimeter structure and an orthogonal array of support members. The segments have a segment perimeter frame, an orthogonal array of ribs and a mesh stretched across the segment. When the mesh of the segments is damaged, the damaged segment is removed from the frame and a replacement segment is installed.

A filter medium includes a plurality of layers each including an undulating strip of solidified material.

A method for manufacturing a filter includes providing a computer-readable three-dimensional model of the filter, the three-dimensional model being configured to be converted into a plurality of slices that each define a cross-sectional layer of the filter, and successively forming each layer of the filter by additive manufacturing.

A filter element is provided with a support frame provided with a first end disk section and a second end disk section. A folded filter medium is connected to the support frame and arranged between the first end disk section and the second end disk section of the support frame. The first end disk section or the second end disk section has a face facing away from the filter medium. The support frame is provided with a fluid guiding channel that guides, when a fluid flow passes through the filter medium, the fluid along the face facing away from the filter medium. A filter assembly with such a filter element and a filter receptacle in which the filter element is exchangeably arranged is provided.

A process is disclosed for wetting a filter cartridge used to treat a liquid solvent used in semiconductor manufacture. In the process, a filter cartridge having void spaces wherein the void spaces contain residual gas from the manufacturing process used to make the filter cartridge is connected to a source of purging gas. The purging gas is flowed through the filter cartridge to at least partially displace at least a portion of the residual gas from the manufacturing process used to make the filter cartridge. Next, liquid solvent is pumped through the filter cartridge so that the purging gas dissolves into the liquid solvent and to at least partially fill the void spaces to thereby at least partially wet out the filter cartridge with the liquid solvent.

A filter screen includes a plate body with an upstream surface, an opposed downstream surface, and an array of apertures extending between the upstream surface and the downstream surface. A polytetrafluoroethylene-based layer overlays the upstream surface between apertures of the aperture array, the polytetrafluorethylene-based layer being conformally disposed over the upstream surface of the plate body and spanning the upstream surface between the apertures of the aperture array to slow deposition of carbonaceous deposits on the filter screen.

A blood treatment filter includes a housing having a first resin sheet and a second resin sheet, a filter member disposed in the housing, a peripheral edge molded body formed on a peripheral edge portion of the filter member and having an inner peripheral portion joined to an outer peripheral end edge of a filtering material, and a connection sheet extending outward from the peripheral edge molded body and connected to the housing.

The Edo Cup 2.0 is an open, suspended, accordion type paper single cup fillable completely biodegradable and recycle-able beverage disposable filter.

The filter can be in several shapes and sizes and may display corporate logs, up to an including religious symbols, sayings and holiday messages.

The filter may enclose flavors (in the filter paper) or be pre-soaked in flavors prior to packaging for sale.

A method for manufacturing a filter includes providing a computer-readable three-dimensional model of the filter, the three-dimensional model being configured to be converted into a plurality of slices that each define a cross-sectional layer of the filter, and successively forming each layer of the filter by additive manufacturing.

The invention relates to a filter unit (600), a method for manufacturing such a filter unit, and a cartridge (690) comprising such a filter unit. The filter unit (600) is characterized in that it comprises a filter material (601) which is integrated into the aperture of at least one foil (602, 603, 604). In a preferred embodiment, the filter material (601) may be located in the aperture of an intermediate foil (604) which is embedded between a top foil (602) and a bottom foil (603). Such a filter unit (600) can readily be produced in cost-effective processes like roll-to-roll manufacturing technologies.
