Filtration systems having a tangential air cleaner having a coiled media filter element and a cyclonic pre-cleaner are described. An outer wall of the filter element acts as a pre-cleaner sleeve of the housing to generate a cyclonic flow of the intake air prior to the intake air being filtered by the filter element. The housing cover includes geometry that redirects the cyclonic low from a tangential path to an axial, straight-through flow directed through an inlet flow face of the filter element. Various embodiments of such filtration systems offer increased filter performance and capacity compared to similarly sized cylindrical pleated filter elements having a radial flow filtering path.

An object of the present invention is to provide a dust collector including a pulse jet type dust removal mechanism capable of uniformly removing dust over the entire length of a cylindrical filter without increasing the pressure loss of the cylindrical filter; and a dust removal method for such a dust collector. The dust collector of the present invention is a dust collector including a pulse jet type dust removal mechanism for removing dust adhered to cylindrical filters, in which the pulse jet type dust removal mechanism includes: a first discharge section having first discharge nozzles for discharging pulse jets from first end side openings of the cylindrical filters toward inside of the cylindrical filters; and a second discharge section having second nozzles for discharging pulse jets from second end sides of the cylindrical filters toward openings on the first end side of the cylindrical filters, and the second nozzles for discharging are each provided on a tip side of a pipe line extending from the first end side to the second end side of the cylindrical filter.

A filter includes a collecting member that has a pleat and collects particles while allowing wind to pass through, and a holding member that holds the pleat at an end in an elongated direction in which the pleat is elongated. The holding member has a wind-passing portion through which wind flowing along the pleat is allowed to pass.

Disclosed are a pollutant capturer and mobilizer and method of mobilizing a polluted gaseous substance from one location towards another location and capturing one or multiple types of polluting substances, such as CO.sub.2, from an atmospheric body of polluted gaseous substance or from exhaust of vehicles, chimneys, or stacks and thereby combat the negative health, environmental, and economic impacts of the of the polluting substances on communities. Wet or dry embodiments of the pollutant capturer and mobilizer utilize wet or dry pollutant capturing components, respectively, to capture one or multiple types of polluting substances from a body of polluted gaseous substance. Flow-establishing devices can be used to set the body of polluted gaseous substance in motion through the pollutant capturing component. The pollutant capturer and mobilizer may also be mounted on any type of vehicle, with or without using flow-establishing devices.
