Zusammenfassung:A filtering system which essentially includes a generally cylindrical chamber with an inlet nozzle, having openings, located near the bottom of the chamber which extends into the chamber, an activator, a turbine with an axle, both the activator and turbine being located along the axle of the turbine, and an outlet nozzle located near the top of the chamber is disclosed. Air mixed with contaminants enters the chamber through the inlet nozzle via the openings and heads toward the outlet nozzle. Heavier particles fall to the bottom of the chamber. The air rotates the turbine which rotates the activator. As a result of this action, contaminants gather at the sides of the chamber and drop to the bottom of the chamber. A final separation between the contaminants and the air takes place as the air passes through the turbine where a non-penetrable air lock is created at the gap between the turbine and the lower edge of the outlet nozzle, further trapping particles. With the present invention, air filled with contaminants may be cleaned with or without the aid of a liquid. Also, the activator may be in the form of a cylinder or an inverted cup. The activator may also be hollow and have perforations. Furthermore, the invention may include more than one turbine and have dielectric brushes.
