Filter and method for producing same
A filter for binding constituents of a gas stream includes a supporting member and a filter layer applied to surfaces of the supporting member. The filter layer includes a component for the physisorption of constituents, a component for the chemisorption of constituents, and a component for dissolving oil constituents which comprises ionic liquids.
1. A filter for binding constituents of a gas stream, the filter comprising:
a supporting member; and
a filter layer applied to the surfaces of the supporting member,
wherein the filter layer includes:
a) a component for the physisorption of constituents,
b) a component for the chemisorption of constituents, and
c) a component for dissolving oil constituents which comprises ionic liquids,
wherein the supporting member has a cell density of from 50 to 1600 cpsi.
2. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the supporting member is at least one of a ceramic supporting member or a metal supporting member.
3. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, under application conditions, the filter has a pressure drop of 10 mbar or less.
4. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component for the physisorption includes at least one of activated carbon, bentonite, siliceous earths, or zeolites.
5. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component for the chemisorption comprises at least one of peptides or proteins.
6. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component for the chemisorption comprises keratin-containing fibers.
7. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the ionic liquids comprise cations selected from the group consisting of: optionally alkylated imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, guanidinium, uronium, thiouronium, piperidinium, morpholinium, ammonium and phosphonium ions and anions selected from the group consisting of tetrafluoroborates, trifluoroacetates, triflates, hexafluorophosphates, phosphinates, tosylates, imides, amides, sulfates and halides.
8. The filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the filter layer has a matrix, wherein constituents of the matrix comprise components for the physiosorption and/or components for the chemisorption.
9. The filter as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the matrix comprises binders.
10. The filter as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the binders include at least one of mannurone, gulurone, alginate, or pectin salts.
11. The filter as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the matrix incorporates ionic liquids.
12. A method for producing a filter, the method comprising:
a) provision of a supporting member,
b) coating of the surfaces of the supporting member with a filter layer, wherein the filter layer includes:
a component for the physisorption of constituents,
a component for the chemisorption of constituents, and
a component for dissolving oil constituents which comprises ionic liquids,
wherein the supporting member has a cell density of from 50 to 1600 cpsi.
13. The method as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the surfaces of the supporting member are coated with a solution of constituents of the filter layer.
14. The method as claimed in claim 13 , wherein, after the coating with a solution of constituents of the filter layer, a fixing takes place.
15. The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the fixing takes place by solidifying a binder of the filter layer.
16. The method as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the solidification of the binder takes place through a reaction by means of applying a further component.
17. An aircraft, comprising:
a filter for the filtering of the respiratory air, the filter comprising:
a supporting member; and
a filter layer applied to the surfaces of the supporting member,
wherein the filter layer includes:
a) a component for the physisorption of constituents,
b) a component for the chemisorption of constituents, and
c) a component for dissolving oil constituents which comprises ionic liquids.
18. The aircraft as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the filter is arranged at one of the following installation sites:
between a bleed air valve and a cooling unit,
between a cooling unit and a mixing unit,
between a mixing unit and an exit of supply pipes to a cabin and/or a cockpit.
19. The aircraft as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the filter is arranged within a pressurized cabin before the exit of the supply pipes to the cabin and/or the cockpit.
