Abstract

A separation device for separating contaminates from a gas flow may include a raw chamber receiving a contaminated gas and a clean chamber out of which a treated gas exits. A dividing wall may separate the raw chamber from the clean chamber. The dividing wall may include a perforated region defining a plurality of passage openings. The gas flow may be communicated from the raw chamber to the clean chamber via the plurality of passage openings. A gas-permeable separation structure may be arranged on a wall outlet side of the dividing wall facing the clean chamber. The separation structure may separate contaminates from the gas flow when subjected to a through flow.
