A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a first portion including a first engaging portion and a second portion including a second engaging portion. The second portion is attached to the first portion by engagement of the second engaging portion with the first engaging portion. The first portion includes a filtration member and a case. The case includes an inner chamber within which the filtration member is disposed. The case includes a drainage port configured to drain liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The second portion is attached to the first portion to form a cover that covers the drainage port together with the first portion. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside at a position lower than the drainage port.

The invention provides a system for sanitizing fluids such as water and air. In particular, the invention provides a combination of solid chlorhexidine and a polymer matrix, for which effluents are essentially free of leached chlorhexidine. The systems enable rapid disinfecting of fluids, including in line at the point of use, and can be employed for both high volume applications and disposable single-use applications.

An adapter (1) for use in a dedicated coupling system (2) for releasably coupling an air filter cartridge (20) and a housing (36) of a dedicated air filter assembly (34), the adapter (1) comprising: a first surface area (4) being rotatably coupleable with a housing-side coupling element (6) of the coupling system (2), and a second surface area (8) preferably being non-rotatably coupleable. Cartridges, components, features and methods are described.

An object of the present invention is to provide a chemical liquid purification method which makes it possible to obtain a chemical liquid having excellent defect inhibition performance. Another object of the present invention is to provide a chemical liquid. The chemical liquid purification method according to an embodiment of the present invention is a chemical liquid purification method including obtaining a chemical liquid by purifying a substance to be purified containing an organic solvent, in which a content of the stabilizer in the substance to be purified with respect to the total mass of the substance to be purified is equal to or greater than 0.1 mass ppm and less than 100 mass ppm.

Provided is a protective mask that includes one or more layers of an air-permeable aerogel. The aerogel can be nonmetallic, metallic, metallic oxide, semi-conductive, or any combination thereof. The protective mask can include a nonmetallic interior layer and a metallic or metallic oxide exterior layer surrounding the nonmetallic interior layer. Alternatively, the facemask can include a semi-conductive layer, a power source, and a customizable switch. The pore size of the aerogel can be selected from a size ranging from <1 to 100 nanometers based on intended use. One or more layers can be incorporated into a facemask or respirator filter to protect a user from nanometric airborne particles, harmful chemicals used in industry, and the like. The filter is reusable and the pore size can be customized to deny entry to almost any size of particulate that is desired.

The present invention relates to a sheet filter material, in particular having an aerosol filter function and/or a particle filter function, preferably having a protective function against chemical, biological and/or chemical harmful and toxic substances, and to a method for the production thereof. The sheet filter material is particularly suitable for producing protective equipment, protective objects, sports and leisure clothing and filters and filter materials of all types.

The present invention relates to a filter assembly for filtering a body fluid comprising a filter holder and a filter system downstream of the filter holder; wherein the filter system and the filter holder are in contact with each other, wherein the filter system comprises a cuboid frame structure with six rectangular surface areas A1-A6, and wherein five of the six surface areas A1-A5 are covered by a filtering media, and wherein the sixth surface area A6 is in contact with the filter holder.

A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a filtration member and a case. The case has an inner chamber for accommodating the filtration member. The case has a drainage port for draining liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The drainage port is at least one opening formed at the bottom of the inner chamber. The case includes a cover that covers the drainage port. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside. The outlet is lower than the drainage port. At least one baffle plate is disposed inside the cover. The baffle plate has a slope on the side of the baffle plate facing the drainage port, thereby forming a ramp.

An air-permeable filter material that includes a polymeric aerogel having a polymeric matrix comprising an open-cell structure is disclosed. The air-permeable filter material can be included in a mask, which can be configured to be placed over a user's mouth and/or nose. The mask can include at least one layer of the air-permeable filter material and is positioned such that inhaled and/or exhaled air of the user passes through the filter material.
