Technical textiles play a major and profitable role in filtration media. A wide variety of fibers, dref yarns, nonwoven fabrics, multifilament and monofilament woven fabrics, and in some cases blends or combinations of more than one of the above, are used in filtration applications. Within this article, dollar amounts are for North America specific to… Continue reading Fibers, Textiles And Nonwovens In Filtration

Filtration Fabrics – Principles, Classification & Applications
Filtration is a mechanical or physical operation which is used for separation of solids from fluid (liquid/gas) by interposing a filtering media through which any fluid can pass. The above fig. Shows the simplest arrangement of filtering operation where a filtering media over which material to be filtered is fed by separation. During this process,… Continue reading Filtration Fabrics – Principles, Classification & Applications
Non-Woven Fabrics
Nonwovens do not depend on the interlacing of yarn for internal cohesion. Intrinsically they have neither an organized geometrical structure. They are essentially the result of the relationship between one single fiber and another. This provides nonwoven fabrics with characteristics of their own, with new or better properties (absorption, filtration) and therefore opens them up… Continue reading Non-Woven Fabrics
Non-Woven In Filtration – A Review | Types Of Filtration | Scope Of Filtration
“Water filtration is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids and gasses from contaminated water. The goal is to produce safe and clean water for a specific purpose. In past years, nonwovens have been seen as pillagers in the filtration market, taking market share and applications from other types of media such… Continue reading Non-Woven In Filtration – A Review | Types Of Filtration | Scope Of Filtration
Application Of Nonwoven In Filtration
Nonwoven filter media in their simplest forms are random fiber structures, usually in sheet form, that are used to separate one or more phases from a moving fluid passing through the media. Filtration is generally perceived as the removal of particulate phases from the moving fluid by entrapping the particulate matter in the tortuous structure… Continue reading Application Of Nonwoven In Filtration
The Role of Filtration Textiles Within Industry
While the technology news of the textile industry sector is often dominated by innovative industry firsts, filtration media often goes under the radar in high performance textiles. Andy Smith from Arville shines the spotlight on this commonly-overlooked area. Rolls goods, sleeves, socks, bags, cloths and sheets, are just some of the various types of media… Continue reading The Role of Filtration Textiles Within Industry

Nonwoven Fabrics in Filtration Nonwovens offer many advantages in all types of filtration. Whether a filter is designed to keep the air in your home clean, an operating room sterile, or to remove dirt and grit from the oil in your car before it reaches the engine, nonwoven fabrics get the job done. Anyone who… Continue reading Filtration
