Zusammenfassung:Methods for filtering fluid suspensions to obtain clarified fluids may include providing a fluid to be filtered, wherein the fluid contains solid particulate contaminants. The method may further include providing a constricted-fibre filtering device, providing a particulate filter aid, and filtering the fluid to be filtered and the particulate filter aid using the constricted-fibre filtering device. The method may further include collecting a filtered fluid and optionally filtering the collected filtered fluid again, using the constricted-fibre filtering device. A constricted-fibre filtering device may include an inlet for a fluid to be filtered and/or particulate filter aid, wherein the inlet includes a manifold leading to feeds arranged near or within fibres of the filtering device.
