A filter device and technique are described which rely on absorption rather than adsorption for the removal of gas phase contaminants. A filter media (49) is composed of wicking fibers which are impregnated with any of a variety of liquid phase absorbing systems made from the combination of a carrier liquid and soluble complexing/degrading agent or agents. The wicking fibers may be connected to an external reservoir (37) which can be used to supply fresh absorbing fluid to the filter media giving them a potentially inexhaustible capacity. The filter media may be made from any of a variety of fibers which can rapidly transport a liquid phase by the nature of either their geometry or their chemical composition. Geometries may include multilobal cross-sectional configurations, porous hollow fibers, porous or striated fibers or tightly bundled microfibers, all of which exhibit the property of wicking fluid from an external source.

Cette invention concerne un dispositif et une méthode de filtrage faisant appel à l'absorption plutôt qu'à l'adsorption pour la suppression de contaminants en phase gazeuse. Ce dispositif comprend un milieu filtrant (49), composé de fibres capillaires qui sont imprégnées d'une substance, parmi d'autres, absorbant les liquides. Cette substance est une combinaison d'un liquide porteur et d'un ou plusieurs agents complexants/de décomposition solubles. Les fibres capillaires peuvent être reliées à un réservoir externe (37), lequel fournira du fluide absorbant frais au milieu filtrant, ce qui leur confère une capacité potentiellement inépuisable. Ce milieu filtrant peut se composer de diverses fibres pouvant transporter rapidement un liquide que ce soit du fait de leur géométrie ou de leur composition chimique. Ces géométries peuvent comprendre des configurations de section multilobées, des fibres creuses poreuses, des fibres poreuses ou striées, ou encore des microfibres étroitement liées, chacune devant posséder des qualités d'absorption par effet de mèche d'un fluide depuis une source extérieure.
