In accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure, an apparatus includes a tubular filter and a motor coupled to the tubular filter. The tubular filter includes a plurality of apertures. The motor rotates the tubular filter about an axis while a differential pressure is applied to an interior space of the tubular filter relative to exterior to the tubular filter. A force is applied, related to the rotation of the tubular filter, to particulate matter agglomerated to an exterior surface of the tubular filter such that the particulate matter is removed from the exterior surface.

A blood processing system for collecting plasma reduced platelets and anticipating plasma return includes a venous access device, a blood component separation device, a first return line, a recirculation line, and a second return line. The venous access device draws whole blood from a subject and returns blood components to the subject using a first pump. The blood component separation device separates the drawn blood into a first blood component and a second blood component, and sends the first blood component to a first blood component bag. The first return line fluidly connects the venous-access device and the blood component separation device. The recirculation line connects the first blood component container and the separation device. The second return line fluidly connects the first blood component container and the first return line and is configured to return the first blood component within the first blood container to the subject.

Methods and systems are disclosed for using industrial waste for the production of hydrogen gas. The method includes examining a ph level of the industrial waste, removing contaminate from the industrial waste, conditioning and concentrating the industrial waste to a proton-rich solution, and using the resulting proton-rich solution as the proton source in a hydrogenase catalyzed hydrogen production system.

Cleanable filters and methods of cleaning filters are described in the present application. The cleanable air filter includes a housing and a filter element installed in the housing. The filter element is configured to filter an operating fluid in a given application. The filter element is cleanable in-situ in the installed condition in the housing. The cleanable air filter further includes a cleaning fluid applicator configured to apply a cleaning fluid to the filter element while the filter element is in the installed condition in the housing such that the filter element is cleanable without being removed from the filter housing.
