Filters for nuclear sludge recovery & treatment plant
I'm translating an equipment list for a sludge recovery & treatment plant, so not a great deal of background information to go on - - just a list of equipment really.
Has anyone come across one of these before? My searches have drawn a blank, although I have found an image of one here:
http://www.atena.fr/adeva/catalogue 2010/Index_02.pdf
Unfortunately. I'm none the wiser as to what we might call it in English...
I'd be grateful for your thoughts.
Thanks.

breather filter
You're right Claire, there's not much to go on, but given that a "scaphandre" is a diving suit or bell, and given that gases given off by sewage sludge can be highly toxic, it sounds as if it might form part of a worker's breathing kit. But confidence is not high....
