Abstract
A filter having a peripheral skirt extending above and below the filter element, provides a gaseous cushion which prevents clogging the filter. The peripheral edges of the filter may have means for preventing entry of solid in the narrow space between the skirt wall and the filter edge. The filter can be part of an entry or exit port in the base of a crystallizer in which crystals are formed, washed, melted and filtered in a single unit. A reactor containing the novel filter is also useful for carrying reactions using heterogeneous catalysts and reactions in which an initially homogeneous catalyst becomes nonhomogeneous during the reaction.
