A filter medium for removing contaminants from water includes a matrix including a plurality of fibers having an electrostatic charge such that the matrix is configured to remove contaminants from water by electrostatic attraction. The filter medium further includes a filler material including a ceramic substrate containing a mineral. The filler material is embedded in the matrix. When water flows through the filter medium, the mineral at least partially dissolves in the water such that a cavity is formed in the matrix in a location of the at least partially dissolved mineral.

A chemical liquid purification apparatus includes a tank body, a return tube, a liquid sending pump, a filtration device and a piping. The tank body has a liquid passage port and a circulation port communicated to a storage space inside the tank body. The return tube has one end connected to the circulation port and another end extending to the storage space. The liquid sending pump and the filtration device are located outside the tank body in between the liquid passage port and the circulation port. The piping is connecting the liquid sending pump and the filtration device to the liquid passage port and the circulation port.
