Leaf disc filters benefit from recently improved filter media
Porvair Filtration Group
This company offers an array of porous metal and plastic materials and systems for filtration and separation, for use in chemical-process, water-treatment, energy and pharmaceutical applications. The company’s leaf-disc filter cartridges incorporate recently improved filter media (photo). The filter leaf discs are available in a range of filtration ratings, from 5 to 40 microns. The leaf-disc capsule filter uses a hard hub that is designed to maximize the available filtration area, leading to lower pressure drop, shorter residence times and reduced risk of degradation. — Porvair Filtration Group, Ashland, Va.
