The article considers three methods of increasing the distribution uniformity of properties over the filtration area of powder filter materials at different stages of their manufacturing. It is shown that granulation of metal powders with a pore former increases the uniformity of permeability distribution over the filtration area by a factor of 2.3–3.5. Dry radial isostatic pressing ensures high distribution uniformity of properties, while the coefficient of variation of local permeability does not exceed 0.17. Radial compression allows increasing the uniformity of permeability distribution over the filtration area by 15 ... 22 % compared to that for the original powder filter materials. The selection of the method used in practice is determined by the shape, size and properties of the manufactured products and initial powders. The considered methods can be used in petrochemical engineering for the manufacture of porous powder products for filtering purposes, used to trap catalyst particles, filters for fine and coarse fuel and oil purification.

An analysis has been performed of the continuous precipitation reactor - rotary vacuum filter system (operating at the selected negative pressure drop) on the basis of the unit output. Filtration area necessary for separation of the product from the precipitation reactor is a function of the mean residence time of suspension in the reactor, concentration of the precipitating solutions, porosity of the filtration cake and the filtration negative pressure drop. Application of the derived relations is demonstrated on the continuous precipitation of Mg(OH)2.

AbstractMaintaining and supporting complete biodegradation during remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated groundwater in constructed wetlands is vital for the final destruction and removal of contaminants. We aimed to compare and gain insight into biodegradation and explore possible limitations in different filter materials (sand, sand amended with biochar, expanded clay). These filters were collected from constructed wetlands after two years of operation and batch experiments were conducted using two stable isotope techniques; (i) carbon isotope labelling of hexadecane and (ii) hydrogen isotope fractionation of decane. Both hydrocarbon compounds hexadecane and decane were biodegraded. The mineralization rate of hexadecane was higher in the sandy filter material (3.6 µg CO2 g−1 day−1) than in the expanded clay (1.0 µg CO2 g−1 day−1). The microbial community of the constructed wetland microcosms was dominated by Gram negative bacteria and fungi and was specific for the different filter materials while hexadecane was primarily anabolized by bacteria. Adsorption / desorption of petroleum hydrocarbons in expanded clay was observed, which might not hinder but delay biodegradation. Very few cases of hydrogen isotope fractionation were recorded in expanded clay and sand & biochar filters during decane biodegradation. In sand filters, decane was biodegraded more slowly and hydrogen isotope fractionation was visible. Still, the range of observed apparent kinetic hydrogen isotope effects (AKIEH = 1.072–1.500) and apparent decane biodegradation rates (k = − 0.017 to − 0.067 day−1) of the sand filter were low. To conclude, low biodegradation rates, small hydrogen isotope fractionation, zero order mineralization kinetics and lack of microbial biomass growth indicated that mass transfer controlled biodegradation.

AbstractInfluenza, one of the most contagious and infectious diseases, is predominantly transmitted through aerosols, leading to the development of filter-based protective equipment. Though the currently available filters are effective at removing submicron-sized particulates, filter materials with enhanced virus-capture efficiency are still in demand. Coating or chemically modifying filters with molecules capable of binding influenza viruses has received attention as a promising approach for the production of virus-capturing filters. For this purpose, tannic acid (TA), a plant-derived polyphenol, is a promising molecule for filter functionalization because of its antiviral activities and ability to serve as a cost-efficient adhesive for various materials. This study demonstrates the facile preparation of TA-functionalized high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter materials and their efficiency in influenza virus capture. Polypropylene HEPA filter fabrics were coated with TA via a dipping/washing process. The TA-functionalized HEPA filter (TA-HF) exhibits a high in-solution virus capture efficiency of up to 2,723 pfu/mm2 within 10 min, which is almost two orders of magnitude higher than that of non-functionalized filters. This result suggests that the TA-HF is a potent anti-influenza filter that can be used in protective equipment to prevent the spread of pathogenic viruses.

Faserverstärkte Kunststoffe (FVK) bieten aufgrund ihrer hervorragenden gewichtsbezogenen Steifigkeiten ein enormes Potenzial bewegte Massen zu reduzieren. Bei der Nasszerspanung solcher Materialien gibt es Vorbehalte durch fehlendes Wissen in der Handhabung und der Wechselwirkung des Kühlschmierstoffes (KSS) mit den Matrixmaterialien. Der Beitrag befasst sich mit der richtigen Handhabung des KSS in der Filtration und der Auslegung des Filtrationsmediums für einen stabilen Prozess beim zerspanenden Endanwender.   Due to their excellent weight-related stiffness, fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) offer enormous potential for reducing the weight of moving masses. When it comes to wet machining these products, end users often lack knowledge on handling the cooling fluid and its reaction with FRP materials. This article shows in detail how to handle the cooling fluid and how to determine the filtration media for a stable use during the machining process of FRP.
