An air cleaner not susceptible to a decrease in effect. The air cleaner includes: a storage tank that stores a liquid; and an air blowing unit. In the air cleaner, the storage tank has an air receiving region and a dust retention region formed therein, and the air blowing unit blows air to the air receiving region. The dust retention region is a region partitioned by a wall in which an opening is formed toward an upstream side of a flow of the liquid.

Provided is an air purification apparatus and method. The apparatus comprises a body having a cavity, an air intake, and an air exhaust. A water reservoir, disposed within the cavity contains a fluid and is in fluid communication with the air intake. A first chamber is disposed within the cavity and is in fluid communication with the water reservoir and the air exhaust. A solar power assembly attaches to the body, the solar power assembly has one or more solar panels. The air purification apparatus has a battery in electrical communication with the one or more solar panels.

The present invention relates to a separator for vacuum cleaners operating on the basis of a liquid bath, the liquid bath serving as pre-separation and as a dumping area for the aspirated particles. It consists of segments (7), each of the segments (7) being formed as a radially flat ring (13) that is centrally secured to a hub (11) via radial supports (12) and having blades (8) extending equidistantly and substantially perpendicularly to the surface of the ring (13). The blades (8) are positioned on each individual segment (7) in a way that a gap (9) is formed between each two adjacent blades (8) of each segment (7). When individual segments (7) are stacked one over another, the blades (8) of one segment (7) extend into the gaps (9) between the blades (8) of the next segment (7), such that a newly formed gap (91) is formed between the two adjacent blades (8) of the assembled separator (1). In a preferred embodiment, the separator (1) consists of two end segments (71, 72) and at least one intermediate segment (73), the first end segment (71) preferably having the radially flat ring (13) provided with an integrated sealing ring (30), and the second end segment (72) having the radially flat ring (13) provided with an integrated bottom (20).

A swirl air/liquid air purifier comprises: a liquid accommodating disk, having a liquid accommodating space formed in a recessed status for accommodating a liquid; an air discharging pipe, disposed at a top end of the liquid accommodating disk and upwardly extended so as to be formed as a hollow body, wherein a bottom end thereof has a bottom base which is sealed at the top end of the liquid accommodating disk, the bottom base is formed with a plurality of air inlet holes arranged adjacent to a periphery of the air discharging pipe, one side of the air inlet hole is downwardly extended and obliquely inclined thereby forming an inclined guiding plate/pipe allowing a swirl airflow to be generated; and an air suction fan, disposed in the air discharging pipe.

According to one embodiment, a fan scrubber includes an inlet pipe to be connected to a post-stage side of a vacuum pump, in a state where a film preparation apparatus is arranged at a pre-stage before the vacuum pump, a process chamber connected to the inlet pipe, and containing a fan connected to a main shaft of a motor, a heater configured to heat the inlet pipe, and a controller configured to control turning on/off of the heater. The controller turns off the heater, when a signal received from the film preparation apparatus has been switched from a film preparation signal to a cleaning signal.

Methods and installations for treatment of exhaust gases from marine diesel engines, in particular for reduction of the sulphur oxides (SO.sub.x) in such gases, where the reaction products resulting from the mixing of an alkaline aerosol with the exhaust gases are separated-out by means of one or more rotating centrifugal separator rotors (20) of the kind comprising a stack of narrowly spaced separation discs (22).

An air scrubber has an electrically driven fan and a drum having a mat forming a closed circulating band spanning a support of the drum. The mat is electrically rotatably driven about a rotation axis, wherein a lower part of the drum is immersed in a water basin. The mat can be removed from the drum by a movement in the axial direction and pushed back on again by a movement in the axial direction.

The present invention relates to a method of removing contaminants from interior of a vehicle. The contaminants become suspended by an emulsification process and removed from the interior of the vehicle by a vacuum suction unit.
