Abstract: In the method disclosed for filtering a contaminated gas laden with liquid vesicles (or aerosols) through a filter medium arranged around a center hollow through which the aerosol enters, the filter medium is heated to a temperature above the aerosol's dew point by a radiant heat source arranged in said center hollow. The inventive filter enables the said method to be practiced.
