Bacterial filter are gaining significant adoption across wide range of industrial settings
A
bacterial filter is a filter for removing large particulates of microorganisms
such as bacteria and viruses, from water supplies. These filters help in
reducing the total dissolved solids, e-coli, nitrate, and nitrite in the water,
which are harmful to the human body. These include nitrates, nitrites, and
fluoride. All these are potential carcinogens and thus must be avoided. The
water supplied by your municipal water supply is usually tested for its purity
before it is sold.
Several
kinds of bacterial viral filters are available. Glass filters are round hollow
discs made from porcelain or other nonporous material, sealed in brass or
chrome-plated funnels. Ceramic filters generally are of the same type of
material and have the same or similar characteristics. Finally, the best-known
option is the carbon filter, which works by exchanging contaminants with carbon
dioxide and thus significantly reducing the airway pressure. However, most of
these work on the principle of exchanging a smaller volume of contaminants with
a larger volume of air.
Some
of the medical vacuum units include a bacterial
filter assembly along with the filter itself. This option has several
benefits. First, it eliminates the need for a separate filter cartridge. This
significantly reduces the overall size of the system and hence improves the
ease of installation. As a further advantage, a filter Assembly allows easy
replacement of the spirobank without disrupting the flow of the assembly.
The
most important thing about a bacterial filter is that it must allow all the
bacteria that need to be cleaned through the filter to get through. The process
of water purification using these types of devices is more complicated than
simply pushing the water through the device. The liquid passes through a
semi-permeable membrane because of either a low pressure or because of a
suction created by the side of the device or because of pressure applied to the
liquid being filtered. Many kinds of filters can be used. Glass filters with a
spirobank substrate are often used in medical vacuums.
