The aim of this study was to describe and unify all knowledge about mechanic filtration. The first part deals with the parameters and properties of filtration. Here some important basic concepts are explained such as pressure gradient, filter life, etc. There's also a description of convenient filtration technology for coarse and fine materials, such as sand, smoke or soot. The second part primarily focuses on the real use and application of filters for liquid and gaseous media. The differences in construction between different types of filters for filtration of fuels, oils, hydraulic fluids, air and cabin filters are described. The last section is focused mainly on new materials for the production of filters. These materials are ceramic or nanomaterials, which can actually be enriched for example with antibacterial silver or some fungicides.

Keywords: filtration, filter, fuel, oil, air, nanofibers
Grants and funding:

The research has been supported by the project IP 15/2013 "Purity of fuels and oils" financed by IGA AF Mendel and supported by the project TP 5/2013 "Application of non-destructive methods of technical diagnostics in Agricultural technology" financed by Internal Grant Agency Mendel University in Brno; Faculty of Agronomy.
