A filter apparatus comprises a filter stack including a plurality of porous ceramic plates that are axially spaced from one another to define plurality of axially spaced apart radial flow areas. In one example, the filter stack is mounted within a housing. In further examples, the plurality of porous ceramic plates alternate between a first set of porous ceramic plates that are nested with a second set of porous ceramic plates. In still further examples, at least one of the sides of the porous ceramic plates defines a plurality of radial flutes arranged in a radial array. |
