About Liquid Filtration Elements

Liquid filtration elements are used to remove impurities from liquids. They are used in water treatment systems and fluid processing applications. There are many different types of liquid filtration elements. Choices include micro filers, ultra filters, and nano filters; reverse osmosis, return line, and cartridge filtration products; as well as bag house elements and wire mesh filters. Micro filtration elements have membranes with pore sizes ranging from 0.1 to 10 µm. Ultra filtration elements are designed to remove particulates between 0.001 and 0.1 µm. Nano filtration elements separate molecules by size and are often used to purify, soften, and de-color drinking water. Reverse osmosis filtration elements use synthetic membranes that are permeable to water molecules and impermeable to contaminants. Cartridge filters feature a pleated or mesh-like construction and may be disposable or recyclable. Bag filter or bag house (baghouse) elements are used in a variety of processing applications. They provide a low-cost alternative to liquid filter elements such as filter cartridges.

Some liquid filtration elements use organic filtration media. Activated carbons are usually made from bituminous coal or lignite and used in wastewater treatment applications. The material source and mode of activation provide specific end-use properties. Activated clay is often used to remove dissolved contaminants such as acids, oxidation by-products, and surfactants. Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is a naturally-occurring mineral with high absorption, low bulk-density, and high brightness. Cellulose is a natural, plant-based filter material with rough fibers that vary in both size and shape. Types of cellulose include cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose or cellulose nitrate, and regenerated cellulose. Like cellulose, cotton is a highly-efficient filtration media. Cotton’s irregularly-shaped fibers and strong absorption properties provide strength even under wet conditions. Other types of liquid filtration elements use sand and paper.
