It is provided that a filtering medium for deodorizing filter which can sufficiently exhibit deodorizing capability and are excellent in pressure loss and dust-holding capacity while improving adhesion and rigidity. A filtering medium for deodorizing filter having a laminated structure formed by sandwiching an adsorbing layer containing an adsorbent and an adhesive between base material layers, wherein at least one layer of the base material layers is a laminate sheet obtained by integrally laminating a nonwoven fabric made of thermal-bonding-based long fibers and a needle-punched electret nonwoven fabric by needle punching; and the adsorbing layer and the nonwoven fabric made of thermal-bonding-based long fibers of the laminate sheet are laminated so as to be adjacent to each other and thermally bonded to each other.

Filter media, such as electret-containing filtration media for filtering gas streams (e.g., air), are described herein. In some embodiments, the filter media may be designed to have desirable properties such as stable filtration efficiency over the lifetime of the filter media, increased normalized gamma, relatively low pressure drop (i.e. resistance), and/or relatively low basis weight. In certain embodiments, the filter media may be a composite of two or more types of fiber layers where each layer may be designed to enhance its function without substantially negatively impacting the performance of another layer of the media. For example, one layer of the media may be designed to have a relatively low basis weight and/or a relatively high air permeability, and another layer of the media may be designed to have stable filtration efficiency and/or a relatively high efficiency throughout the filter media's lifetime. The filter media described herein may be particularly well-suited for applications that involve filtering gas streams (e.g., face masks, cabin air filtration, vacuum filtration, room filtration, furnace filtration, respirator equipment, residential or industrial HVAC filtration, high-efficiency particulate arrestance (HEPA) filters, ultra-low particular air (ULPA) filters, medical equipment), though the media may also be used in other applications.

The present disclosure describes a needle-punched filtration composite. The needle-punched filtration composite includes a nonwoven layers having a blend of acrylic staple fibers and a high temperature resistant synthetic staple fibers with glass fabric layer. The top nonwoven layer, the glass fabric layer and bottom nonwoven layer are needle-punched together to make a single nonwoven fabric. This fabric is passed through mechanical and chemical finishes. It is stable up to high temperature ranges 250-350? C. The fabric is resistant to acid and alkali. The fabric is also made oil and water repellent by chemical finishing treatment. The developed fabric is used for air and gas filtration applications.

A device for providing purified water from a silt-laden source water having an upper canister, a lower canister, and a filter mounted in the upper canister; wherein the upper canister and the lower canister are fluidly connected via the filter; wherein pre-filtered water is collected in the upper canister and purified water is collected in the lower canister; wherein a pre-filter is fluidly connected between the source water and the upper canister; wherein the pre-filter has a pre-filter canister having an inlet for source water and an outlet for pre-filtered water; wherein the pre-filter canister contains a fine depth filter and a felt filter.

A personal protective equipment face covering includes at least one layer. Each of the at least one layers includes at least one fabric material. Wherein, each of the at least one layers of the at least one fabric material including an inherently ionic material. Wherein an ionic charge on the inherently charged ionic material comes from a molecular structure, not from electrostatic charge or triboelectricity.

A geocomposite with a geonet and a geotextile. The geotextile has a nonwoven fabric layer and a woven fabric layer, with the nonwoven fabric connected by needle-punching to the woven fabric whereby fibers of the nonwoven fabric extend through and beyond the woven fabric, and the woven fabric and fibers of the nonwoven fabric extending through the woven fabric are bonded to one side of the geonet.

It is provided that a pre-air-filter, for an internal combustion engine, which allows stiffness to be assured even when the weight is reduced, which also has excellent dust holding properties, and which has an excellent resistance to entry of water. A pre-air-filter for an internal combustion engine (1) contains a nonwoven fabric comprising a first fiber having a melting point of not lower than 80 C. and not higher than 200 C., a second fiber having a melting point of higher than the melting point of the first fiber by not less than 30 C., being crimped, and having a hollow structure, entanglement of the first fiber and the second fiber by needle punching, and fusion of partly or entirely melted first fiber and the second fiber. This pre-air-filter (1) is installed at an air-inlet-side of a main-air-filter (2).

Filter media for filtering gas streams (e.g., air) are described herein. In some embodiments, the filter media may be designed to have desirable properties such as stable filtration efficiency, high oil repellency, low instantaneous resistance, and/or stable service life. In certain embodiments, one or more layers of the media may have a certain value of basis weight over air permeability (and/or a ratio of a value of basis weight over air permeability between two layers). The filter media may optionally comprise a support layer with a relatively high air permeability (e.g., greater than or equal to 1100 CFM). In some cases, the filter media may have a relatively low initial resistance and/or may have a particular final E1 efficiency. The filter media described herein may be particularly well-suited for applications that involve filtering gas streams (e.g., face masks, cabin air filtration, vacuum filtration, respirator equipment, as well as residential heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) and industrial HVAC systems), though the media may also be used in other applications.
