Methods, apparatuses and systems for providing an apparatus such as, for example, a gas detecting apparatus are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may comprise: a manifold defining a gas flow channel that is configured to convey a gaseous substance from a gas inlet on a surface of the manifold; and at least one integrated flow regulating component comprising a filtering element that is configured to filter the gaseous substance, wherein the filtering element is disposed adjacent an orifice that leads to an interior channel of the integrated flow regulating component, and wherein the filtering element is disposed upstream with respect to the orifice.

A septic tank filter system includes a tank. The tank includes an inlet and an outlet, wherein the outlet is disposed on the tank below the inlet to enable a flow of wastewater to be gravity fed from the inlet to the outlet. A filter is positioned in the tank. The filter includes a frame. A filter media is disposed on the frame. The filter media is operable to filter the wastewater of waste material as the wastewater passes therethrough. A top opening is disposed on a top portion of the frame. A bottom of the top opening is located above the tank outlet and below the tank inlet. When the filter media is not clogged, a level of the wastewater remains below the top opening. When the filter media is clogged, the level of the wastewater rises until the wastewater flows over the top opening.

A disposable filter for a sink including a substantially inverted disposed conical filter having a rounded conical apex and a continuous horizontally disposed circular bottom rim. A circular top rim is continuously disposed on a top surface of the bottom rim of the filter. A concave-shaped indentation is continuously disposed through each of an exterior edge of the bottom rim and an outer surface of the top rim. A plurality of tabs is attached to the outer surface of the top rim. An adhesive layer is disposed on a bottom surface of the bottom rim of the filter. The filter is removably disposed atop an exterior surface of a sink, with an exterior edge of the indentation disposed around an exterior surface of a base of a faucet.

Provided is a filtration device that can increase a filtration treatment amount by suppressing clogging of a filtration filter. A filtration device according to the present invention includes: a filtration filter that includes a filter that filters a filtration target contained in a fluid, and a frame that holds the filter; a support structure that holds the frame such that the filter is bent; and a fluid supplying unit that supplies the fluid with the filter being in a bent state.

Filter capsules for showers and sinks used in surgical settings, clean rooms and other contaminant-sensitive settings having modified outlets for improved splash control. Flat, concave, convex, asymmetric concave and asymmetric convex outlet inserts have pluralities of fluid bores with varying orientations to permit enhanced fluid flow control out of the filter capsules including divergent, convergent and mixed divergent/convergent fluid flows. An inlet with an axis offset at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the filter capsule body permits user control over the fluid flow strike point in a sink or shower stall via rotation of the capsule about the inlet connection point. A recessed outlet improves the prevention of contaminant dispersal by recessing the outlet away from contact points and potential contaminant sources. A filter cartridge top cap includes a downwardly extending extension with a concave bottom end to redirect fluids undesirably entering the filter capsule from the outlet away from the enclosed filter media and out the outlet.

The invention relates to a bioactive filter for the disinfection of liquids, in particular water or aqueous solutions in containers. A structure that is advantageous in terms of filter efficiency is obtained by forming a spherical or oval filter body (1), which is coated with noble metals (FIG. 1).

Debris filters for automatic swimming pool cleaners may be formed of metal, carbon fibers, or composites more rigid than soft nylon bags. In at least one version, the filter may be made of, or include, steel or stainless steel. Non-uniform sizes, densities, and/or shapes of openings in the filtration material may be created to provide different levels of filtration in a single device.

A hydrocarbon absorbing cone filter for an air intake system may include a generally truncated cone shaped media filter and an internal hydrocarbon absorbing element therein. The hydrocarbon absorbing element may absorb hydrocarbons at the clean air side of an air stream flowing through the media filter and into a combustion engine system.

Filter arrangements comprising a plurality of radially arranged filters or radially arranged curved filters, each filter comprising a plurality of arms, each arm comprising a hollow tube, each hollow tube having a first end and a second end, and a tube inner fluid channel having an inner diameter; the filter further including a first tube connector, comprising a first hollow body having a first hollow body inner diameter, connected to, and in fluid communication with, the hollow tubes, and a second tube connector, comprising a second hollow body having a second hollow body inner diameter, connected to, and in fluid communication with, the first hollow body, and filter devices including filter arrangements, and methods of use are disclosed.
