Abstract
A filtration element, which includes filtering tubes that are drilled with straight conical holes, and a central supporting tube and connecters/headcaps. The filtering tubes are arranged so that drilled surface portions face outwarded and the remaining undrilled surface portions are positioned adjacent to the central supporting tube. The filtration media can be made of tubular or flat metals or alloys. A plurality of filtration elements can be bundled using specially designed connectors to meet specific requirements for filtering of fine solid particles from liquids or gases or even liquid-gas-solid three phase. These elements can be used for various applications in filtration fields.
