Handbook of Non-Woven Filter Media

The increasing importance of non-woven filter media is due in part to their versatility: they are used in the pre-filtration of liquids, protection of membrane filters, gaseous filtration, the automotive industry, air purification, wet filtration and many household uses. Despite this, no comprehensive account of these media has existed until now. Irwin (Marshall) Hutten is well-known throughout the non-woven industry and brings enormous experience and knowledge to this Handbook. All aspects of the properties, formation, materials, types of filters, applications, test-methods and standards are to be found within this volume. It is the first comprehensive handbook in this subject area. The author is very experienced and well-known in the non-woven industry. It is an important reference source for process engineers, maintenance engineers, chemical engineers in the water, gas, oil, beverage and process industries, plus manufacturers, specifiers and end-users of non-woven filter media.
