  • Patent number: 11161067
    Abstract: A filtration system includes a filtration device having filter slats positioned in a linear array and connected via a supporting structure, the filter slats being parallel to one another and being fixed at an angle relative to the linear array; and pores created by the filter slats; a fluid flow chamber to hold the filtration device such that fluid passes through the filtration device, the fluid flow chamber having a filtration channel with an inlet to receive fluid and an expulsion channel in fluid communication with the filtration channel; a filtrate channel in fluid communication with the filtration channel such that fluid passes through the filtration device between the filtration channel and the filtrate channel, the filtrate channel having a filtrate channel outlet; one or more pressure modulating structures in fluid communication with the fluid flow chamber such that the pressure modulating structure modifies pressure in the fluid flow chamber.
