In a process for removing entrained particulates from a gas, a chemical reaction may be conducted in a vessel. Conducting the chemical reaction may include suspending particulates in a gas in a fluidized bed in the vessel. A portion of the gas and entrained particulates may be directed to a filter medium and the entrained particulates may be filtered from the gas. Filtering the entrained particulates may include directing the gas from a feed side of the filter medium through the filter medium to a filtrate side of the filter medium and may also include directing at least a portion of the entrained particulates generally tangentially along the feed side of the filter medium to scour the feed side of the filter medium. The particulates may then be directed from the feed side of the filter medium into a dip leg.

Disclosed are block copolymers of the formula A-B-A (I) or A-B (II), comprising blocks A and B, wherein block A is a hydrophilic polymeric segment comprising polyglycerol and block B is an aromatic hydrophobic polymeric segment. The block copolymers find use as wetting agents in the preparation of porous membranes from aromatic hydrophobic polymers such as polyethersulfone.

Disclosed are self-assembling diblock copolymers of the formula (I): wherein R1 is —(CHR—CH2—O)p—R′, p=2-6, R is H or methyl, and R′ is H, C1-C6 alkyl, or C3-C11 cycloalkyl, R2 is C6-C20 aryl, one of R3 and R4 is C6-C14 aryl or heteroaryl, and the other is C1-C22 alkoxy, and n and m are independently 2 to about 2000, which find use in preparing self-assembled structures and porous membranes. Embodiments of the self-assembled structures contain the diblock copolymer in a cylindrical morphology. Also disclosed is a method of preparing such copolymers.

Disclosed are self-assembled structures prepared from block copolymers, for example, diblock copolymers of the formula (I): wherein R1-R4, n, and m are as described herein, which find use in preparing nanoporous membranes. In an embodiment, the block copolymer self-assembles into a cylindrical morphology. Also disclosed is a method of preparing such self-assembled structures which involves spin coating a polymer solution containing the block copolymer to obtain a thin film, followed by solvent annealing of the film. Further disclosed is a method of preparing porous membranes from the self-assembled structures.

A filter element has a filter structure and first and second end caps attached to the opposite ends of the filter structure. The filter structure includes an outer filter pack, an inner filter pack, and a helical support positioned between the outer and inner filter packs. The helical support may have flow channels and support ridges on the inner surface and the outer surface of the helical support. Unfiltered fluid may be directed outside-in through the outer filter pack and inside-out through the inner filter pack, the support ridges of the helical support supporting the outer and inner filter packs against the pinching forces associated with the pressure drops across the outer and inner filter packs. Filtrate may be directed axially along the flow channels of the helical support and discharged from the filter element.

An arrangement for removing entrained catalyst particulates from a gas may include a pressure vessel, a filter assembly, and a dip leg. The pressure vessel may contain a fluidized bed of catalyst particulates suspended in the gas. Some of the gas and entrained catalyst particulates may be directed to the filter assembly where the entrained catalyst particulates are filtered from the gas by a filter medium. The catalyst particulates pass generally tangentially along a feed side of the filter medium, where they scour the feed side of the filter medium, and then pass into the dip tube which guides the catalyst particulates away from the filter medium.
