Abstract

A method for filtering a gas includes delivering a gas into a compartment of a gas filter, the compartment being at least partially bounded by a casing comprised of a flexible sheet of polymeric film. A partial vacuum is applied to the gas filter so that the partial vacuum assists in drawing the gas through a porous filter body of the gas filter that is at least partially disposed within the compartment of the gas filter.
