A filter media, filter element, filter system and methods are provided. The filter media provides improved filter characteristics including water separation efficiency. The filter media may include one or more of increased surface roughness and/or embossments. The filter media may be provided by pleated filter media.

Air bubbles are removable with the use of an air vent structure having a compact and simple configuration. An air vent hole is formed in an upper plate that covers an entire upper end surface of a filtration section having a substantially tubular shape formed by bending a thin plate in a pleat shape. A moving member is provided to be movable between a position of closing the air vent hole and a position of opening the air vent hole.

A system for preparing nanoscale zero-valent iron by reverse filtration in a non-open inert atmosphere is provided including an inert gas bottle, a gas monitoring and buffering device, a main reaction device configured as a three-necked flask, a condensing device including a condenser tube and a cold source, a waste liquid collecting device configured as a waste liquid collecting bottle, a liquid sealing device including a second liquid sealing bottle connected with the waste liquid collecting bottle through a first connecting-pipe, and an extraction pressure adjusting device including a third triple valve and a vacuum pump, all of which are connected by pipelines in sequence. Three necks of the three-necked flask are respectively provided with a first triple valve, a single-hole rubber plug pierced with a liquid-taking pipe, and a second triple valve. The second liquid sealing bottle is connected with the third triple valve.

A swimming pool filter element capable of automatically dosing. The swimming pool filter element includes a folding filter element and a doser filter element. The folding filter element includes a filter membrane and end covers, the end covers each having an upper end cover and a lower end cover. A wrench cover is arranged at the upper end of the upper end cover. The doser filter element includes a doser end cover, a doser lining and a doser shell. The doser filter element is added into the folding filter element, so that a water flow needing to be filtered firstly passes through the filter membrane of the folding filter element, solid large-particle impurities are filtered out, then the water flow enters the doser filter element and makes contact with sterilization tablets placed in the doser filter element, the tablets are dissolved, and finally water with dissolved tablets is discharged into a swimming pool.

A device for treating fluid, in particular a filter device, has first and second tubular elements (12), (14) forming an element assembly (10). One element (14) is accommodated in the other element (12) forming a flow chamber (33) between the two elements (12, 14), with a first element (12) arranged in the direction of the inflow side (29) of a fluid to be treated and a second element (14) arranged in the direction of the outflow side (31) of the treated fluid in the element assembly (10). During the fluid treatment, the flow is routed through both elements (12, 14) in succession from the direction of the inflow side (29) towards the outflow side (31). In a joint viewing direction (P), the first element (12) facing the inflow side (29) at least partially has a uniform or non-uniform contour and the second element (14) facing the outflow side (31) at least partially has a non-uniform or uniform contour.

A fluid filter arrangement, with protection against external contamination, the filter arrangement comprising: a fluid circulating system; a filter cartridge having an exterior surface; a housing having an internal fluid chamber surrounding the exterior surface of the filter cartridge, an open end through which the filter cartridge can pass along a housing axis; and a cover sealed over the open end of the housing in a closed position, the cover in an open position exposing the open end of the housing, the cover including a fluid passage in communication with the internal fluid chamber in the closed position, the cover fluid passage being in communication with the fluid circulating system in the closed position and in the open position.

The present invention relates to filters used to remove debris from water being sucked into a piping system. It has particular application use in nuclear power plants, which, after a loss of coolant accident, must pump cooling water back into the reactor core from a collection sump. This water may contain various types of debris that must be removed before the water is sent back into the reactor cooling system. There are restrictions on the allowable pressure drop across the strainer and the space available for installing this equipment. The finned strainer of the present invention addresses these issues while maximizing the quantity of debris filtered from the water.

A filter cartridge has media construction, a housing, and a first end construction. The first end constructions includes an outer radial wall with circumferentially spaced connecting sections; each connecting section having a plurality of helical profiles extending at a helix angle. The filter cartridge is removably attached to a filter head, which has mating connecting segments. A bowl cartridge assembly is also provided including connecting sections with a plurality of helical profiles.

There is disclosed an apparatus for storing organic materials, the apparatus including: a body having an opening for receiving the organic materials to be stored; an outlet formed in the body through which the organic materials are unloaded from the body; a cooling fluid circuit for circulating cooling fluid through the organic material collected by the hopper.
