Abstract:
A high strength environmental control device comprising a mesh container having at least one interior and one exterior surface is provided. The interior of the mesh container can comprise a filler material. The mesh container can comprise a plurality of yarns, including viscose fibers, interlaced together.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to vacuum cleaner filter bags composed of waste products of the textile industry. In addition, possibilities of use for waste products of the textile industry for vacuum cleaner filter bags are provided. The vacuum cleaner filter bag comprising a wall surrounding an inner space and composed of an air-permeable material and an inlet opening introduced into the wall, characterized in that the air-permeable material comprises at least one layer of a nonwoven that comprises fibrous and/or pulverulent recycled textile material and/or cotton linters, with the specific volume of the layer of the nonwoven amounting to at least 20 cm3/g.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a multistage fiber filtering apparatus capable of selectively filtering depending on turbidity of raw water, in which a first filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber ball medium, a second filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber yarn medium, or a third filtration mode where the raw water passes through both of the fiber yarn medium and the fiber ball medium may be selectively operated.
Abstract:
The assemblies of the invention can comprise a fine fiber layer having dispersed within the fine fiber layer an active particulate material. Fluid that flows through the assemblies of the invention can have any material dispersed or dissolved in the fluid react with, be absorbed by, or adsorbed onto, the active particulate within the nanofiber layer. The structures of the invention can act simply as reactive, absorptive, or adsorptive layers with no filtration properties, or the structures of the invention can be assembled into filters that can filter particulate from a mobile fluid while simultaneously reacting, absorbing, or adsorbing materials from the mobile fluid.
Abstract:
Filter media comprising a splittable multicomponent fiber, wherein at least a portion of the splittable multicomponent fiber is present in the filter medium in split form as at least a first split component and a second split component, and a monocomponent fiber are provided herein. Methods of preparing the filter media are also provided herein.
Abstract:
A filter that contains an adsorbent to remove the soluble portion of the contaminant, and then some form of electrostatic attraction additive. The electrostatic attraction additive would serve to pull the colloidal and particulate portion of the contaminant out of fluid, which could be held indefinitely, or be used to hold while the contaminant is allowed to solubilize and then be removed by the adsorbent. The electrostatic attraction additive could either be positively or negatively charged depending on the surface charge of the particulates that are in the fluid, and includes particles or fibers charged with charged polymers, zeolites, cation or anion exchange resin, powdered alumina, or nano-alumina.
Abstract:
A filter medium for removing oil from an aqueous material can include a three dimensional solid made from a plurality of fibers, in which at least some of the fibers are oleophilic or oleophilic and hydrophilic. The solid can be a variety of shapes, such as a sphere, cylinder, cone, cube, cuboid, parallelepiped, polyhedron, prism, spheroid, ellipsoid, paraboloid, hyperboloid, ring and/or combinations thereof.
Abstract:
A hybrid type fiber filtering apparatus includes an enclosure, a strainer, a first filtering layer and a second filtering layer. The enclosure has an upper case and a lower case coupled to the upper case. The strainer is mounted inside the upper case in a longitudinal direction. The first filtering layer includes a plurality of fiber filters fixed between upper and lower fixing units and surround an outer circumferential surface of the strainer. The second filtering layer includes a plurality of fiber ball filters disposed inside the lower case. Raw water introduced into the upper case through a raw water inflow pipe passes through the first filtering layer, flows into the strainer, drops downwardly from an inside of the strainer, is introduced into the lower case, passes through the second filtering layer, and then, is discharged out through a filtered water discharge pipe.
Abstract:
An indefinite form filter medium layer includes filter media configured to capture suspended solids contained in a liquid to be treated and filtering aids configured to allow the suspended solids contained in the liquid to be treated to pass through the filtering aids. The filter media and the filtering aids are mixed together and the liquid to be treated is filtered by being passed through the filter media and the filtering aids as mixed together. A filter device includes the indefinite form filter medium layer and a filter tank configured to accommodate the indefinite form filter medium layer.
