USE OF A FILTER ELEMENT FOR THE ADSORPTION OF HYDROCARBONS

摘要

The use of a filter element with a body which has material which is suitable for adsorption of gases and vapors, the body being in the form of a honeycomb body, is, with regard to the object of supplying a substantially closed chamber with filtered inlet air in trouble-free fashion, the inlet air being virtually completely freed from pollutants which are present in the form of aerosols, gases, liquid droplets or solid particles, and a filter element of simple construction being used, wherein the filter element is used for supplying filtered inlet air to an at least partially closed-off chamber, the inlet air being freed from pollutants which are present in the form of aerosols, gases, liquid droplets or solid particles.

主权项

1. A method of supplying filtered inlet air to an at least partially closed-off chamber, the method comprising:
contacting inlet air with a filter element, thereby freeing the inlet air from a pollutant comprising an aerosol, gas, liquid droplet, solid particle, or mixture thereof, to obtain a filtered air; supplying the filtered air to an at least partially closed-off chamber, wherein the filter element comprises a honeycomb body, the honeycomb body comprising a material suitable for adsorbing a gas.
