Definitions
- the invention relates to a filter device for cleaning fluids, in particular fuels that are contaminated with organic ingredients.
- the replacement intervals of filter arrangements generally depend on the flow resistance generated by the respective filter arrangement. With increasing dirt loading of the filter, the differential pressure formed on the filter medium and thus the flow resistance increases.
- the invention has the object to provide a filter device for cleaning fluids, in particular of fuels, which, although simple and economical is operable, long service lives related filter media allows the filter device.
- a significant feature of the invention is that a separation device is provided which separates the water molecules contained in the relevant fluid, in particular the fuel, in such a way that hydroxyl radicals are formed. Since hydroxyl radicals are chemically highly reactive oxidants, organic substances are oxidized by contact with hydroxy I radicals as far as possible.
- the arrangement is preferably such that the separation device has hydroxyl radical-forming, catalyst-acting media and / or an electrolysis device.
- titanium dioxide serving as catalyst is particularly advantageously provided on or in the filter medium of a filter element associated with the filter device.
- the arrangement can advantageously be made so that titanium dioxide is applied as a layer on the filter medium.
- the effectiveness of the catalyst can be enhanced in a simple and advantageous manner by making the arrangement such that the catalyst can be exposed to light radiation, in particular in the wavelength range from 180 to 300 nm.
- the filter device has a housing part which forms a window for a radiation entry of natural light or light generated by an artificial radiation source to the catalyst on the filter medium.
- a radiation source can be provided within the housing part.
- the arrangement may be such that the electrolysis device has at least one diamond electrode which acts anodically in the electrolysis within a housing part accommodating a filter element.
- the diamond electrode may be formed on an end cap of the filter element.
- electrically conductive in particular made of stainless steel components of the filter medium or other parts of the filter element may be provided as the cathode of the electrolysis device.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the device according to the invention with a catalytically operating separating device in a schematic and merely simplified manner in the manner of a symbol sketch, with two alternative possibilities of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view, partly in section, of a filter element for an exemplary embodiment of the invention, in which an electrolytic separation device is provided.
- Fig. 1 is a merely symbolically indicated filter device as a whole with 2, to the housing 4, a fuel supply line 6 and a fuel drain line 8 are connected.
- a filter medium 10 In the housing 4 is a filter medium 10.
- the filter medium 10 To separate the water into hydrogen and hydroxyl radicals, the filter medium 10 is provided with a layer of titanium dioxide acting as a catalyst.
- the supply of electromagnetic radiation is provided, in the present case in a wavelength range of 180 to 300 nm.
- Fig. 1 two alternative ways of supplying radiation are indicated.
- only one light source 7 is indicated in the drawing, several light sources may be provided in a suitable arrangement and of any construction, for example one or more LEDs.
- a radiation-permeable wall part is provided on the filter housing 4, which forms a preferably UV-transparent window through which the titanium dioxide can be irradiated by means of an external light source 9.
- This external light source 9 can be formed by natural light or, as in the internal light source 7, by a lamp or multiple lamps of any design and radiating body of any kind, preferably also by LEDs.
- the filter element 1 shown in Fig. 2 comprises a filter medium 10 which extends between two end caps 12, 14 which are each connected to an assignable end portion 16, 18 of the Filterrnedium 10, wherein between the end portion 16 and the end cap 12 a one type of insulating layer forming adhesive bed 26 is located, while the other end portion 18 of the filter medium 10 to the inner side of the lower end cap 14 is fluid-permeable.
- the filter medium 10 is supported on the inner circumference of a support tube 20.
- the lower end cap 14 forms an anodically effective diamond electrode 22 on its inner side.
- This is a crystalline diamond layer only a few nanometers thick on the electrically conductive end cap 14, wherein the diamond is rendered electrically conductive by doping with the element boron ,
- the filter medium 10 which has a multilayer structure in the manner of a filter mat, for example, to provide a grid layer made of stainless steel.
