Disclosed herein is a system that performs the separation of incoming liquid and vapor oil by a single system. The disclosure is a compressed air system for separating liquid- and vapor-form oil from the air, including a filter element that comprises an air-oil separator that separates liquid-form oil from the air, an activated carbon filter positioned after the air-oil separator, separating the vapor oil from the air; and a housing, in which the said filter element is placed, having at least two discharge elements for discharging liquid-form oil, an inlet port for the inlet of air and an outlet port for the outlet of the air.

The invention relates to a porous separation article having a fluoropolymer or polyamide binder interconnecting one or more types of interactive powdery materials or fibers. The interconnectivity is such that the binder connects the powdery materials or fibers in discrete spots rather than as a complete coating, allowing the materials or fibers to be in direct contact with, and interact with a fluid. The resulting article is a formed multicomponent, interconnected web, with porosity. The separation article is useful in water purification, as well as in the separation of dissolved or suspended materials in both aqueous and non-aqueous systems in industrial uses. The separation article can function at ambient temperature, as well as at elevated temperatures.

The present invention relates to an adsorption filter including activated carbon and a fibrillated fibrous binder, in which the activated carbon has a 0% particle diameter (D0) of 10 μm or more in a volume-based cumulative particle-size distribution and has a 50% particle diameter (D50) of 90 to 200 μm in the volume-based cumulative particle-size distribution; the fibrillated fibrous binder has a CSF value of 10 to 150 mL; and the adsorption filter includes 4 to 8 parts by mass of the fibrillated fibrous binder relative to 100 parts by mass of the activated carbon.

The present disclosure describes an augmented medium for water purification including a medium that is treated with Moringa oleifera coagulant protein (MOCP), as well as uses and methods of making the same. The present disclosure also describes water filters including such augmented medium, as well as methods of purifying water by using such filters.

A face mask containing a network of conductive activated carbon meso-fibers crosslinked with a crosslinking agent bonded to a insulative polymeric micro-fiber based purification element. The purification element is captured between two ridged porous elements and contacted to the face by a biocompatible flexible polymeric seal. Optionally the front cover attaches to a main frame of the mask through a system of sliding locks that are coupled with bayonet latch mechanisms. The face mask attaches to the head of a wearer through a harness that couples with the sliding locks or alternatively with a biocompatible adhesive.

A filter medium is provided with a layer (A) provided with non-impregnated active carbon, a layer (B) with a solid carrier material that is impregnated with a permanganate salt, and a layer (C) with alkaline impregnated active carbon. The layer (B) and the layer (C) are arranged such that a gas flowing through the filter medium flows through the layer (B) before flowing through the layer (C). The layer (A) is arranged such that the gas flowing through the filter medium flows through the layer (A) before flowing through the layer (B) or the gas flowing through the filter medium flows through the layer (A) after flowing through the layer (C).

A filter cartridge includes a casing. A filter medium is disposed within the casing. A female inlet port and a female outlet port are mounted to the casing at an end portion of the casing. The female inlet port is offset from the female outlet port along the radial direction at the end portion of the casing.

The present invention relates to a water purifier filter, and a water purifier including the same. The water purifier filter and the water purifier including the same according to the present invention include a filter housing including an inlet and an outlet, and a filter module provided in the filter housing to purify water introduced through the inlet and to supply the water to the outlet, and a material of the filter module includes sodium orthotitanate (Na.sub.4TiO.sub.4) to remove a heavy metal under water, thereby effectively removing a heavy metal including cadmium under water.

A replaceable air filter element has a multilayer filter medium panel configured for mounting on a reusable exoskeleton support frame. The exoskeleton support frame is installable on a flow face of the filter medium panel and is provided with U-shaped locking members configured to detachably engage with and mount the filter medium panel. The exoskeleton support frame is configured to be reused such that only the filter medium panel is replaced, thereby reducing the environmental waste and making for a “green” eco-friendly air filter element.

Embodiments relate to apparatus for manufacturing a carbon block filter and a method for manufacturing a carbon block filter. The apparatus for manufacturing a carbon block filter according to an embodiment may include a mold having an inner space, a heater coupled to the mold to heat the mold, a material injection unit injecting a material to the mold heated by the heater, a material pressing unit pressing the material, and a filter separation unit separating a thermally treated filter from the mold heated by the heater.
