Abstract: An filtration apparatus is disclosed. The filtration apparatus is to remove non-liquid contaminant from liquid carrier. The filtration apparatus may include an electrode having a first surface, wherein the electrode is to generate an electric field towards liquid carrier containing non-liquid contaminant. The filtration apparatus may include a reservoir having a wall defined at least partially by the first surface, the reservoir to house a volume of liquid carrier. The filtration apparatus may include a plurality of plates, each plate having an accumulation surface, wherein a portion of each plate is within the reservoir, so as to be submerged in the volume of liquid carrier. An electric field formed between the first surface and the accumulation surface of each plate of the plurality of plates may act on the liquid carrier, to thereby cause non-liquid contaminant to adhere to an accumulation surface of a plate of the plurality of plates. A method and a print apparatus are also disclosed.

Abstract: In an example of the disclosure, carrier liquid is supplied to a container with a set of walls defined at least partially by a surface of an electrode. The carrier liquid is caused to move through a container via a carrier liquid flow path to sequentially encounter a set of accumulation elements. Each accumulation element is situated between adjacent walls. A voltage is applied to the electrode to generate an electric field between the electrode surface and the set of accumulation elements. The electric field causes contaminant from the carrier liquid to adhere to the set of accumulation elements.

Abstract: A print agent filtration apparatus is disclosed. The filtration apparatus is to remove non-liquid contaminant from liquid carrier. The apparatus comprises an electrode having a first surface, wherein the electrode is to generate an electric field towards liquid carrier containing non-liquid contaminant. The apparatus further comprises a second surface to accumulate non-liquid contaminant removed from the liquid carrier, the second surface being formed at least in part from a ceramic and movable relative to the first surface. A gap between the first surface and the second surface is substantially constant over the extent of the first surface. The first surface and the second surface define a passage therebetween through which the liquid carrier may pass. An electric field formed between the first surface and the second surface is to act on the liquid carrier, to thereby cause non-liquid contaminant to adhere to the second surface. A method and a print apparatus are also disclosed.
