The flat-plate filter for water treatment according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a piece-shaped filtration member comprising a first support and a membrane formed on both sides of the first support; and a support frame fitted in and coupled to the edge of the filtration member so as to support the filtration member, and having a flow path through which filtered water introduced from at least one surface of the filtration member flows, wherein a part of the filtration member is disposed in the flow path or at the edge of the flow path such that the first support is exposed.

A single-use device for filtration of a large volume of medium including a plurality of single-use filter units, at least some of which, preferably all of which, are connected to each other by rigid pipes. The filter units include at least one prefilter and at least one main filter for virus filtration which is configured as a hollow fiber capsule.

A filtration module for filtering a process medium in a bioprocess including a process flow path for a process medium, a filter membrane coupled to the process flow path, and a sampling membrane coupled both to the process flow path and to a sampling flow path for extracting a sample from the process medium. The sampling flow path guides the extracted sample to a sampling outlet of the filtration module or to an analyzer integrated into the filtration module. A filtration assembly including the filtration module and an analyzer coupled to the sampling outlet of the filtration module. A method of sampling during a bioprocess including providing such a filtration module, urging a process medium through the process flow path, filtering the process medium by using the filter membrane, extracting a sample from the process medium by using the sampling membrane, and guiding the extracted sample to a sampling outlet.
