Rick Kenney of Porous Metal Filter is currently involved in consulting with the wire cloth weaving and metal filter production industries in relation to the oil drilling and oil extraction industries. He is conducting cutting edge research in the importance of permeability in the selection of filter media for these industries to produce filter elements that have the greatest permeability and corresponding lowest pressure drop giving the lowest impact on the overall pressure budget of the pumping system and therefore having the lowest energy consumption and cost expenditure.
Information about this research can be obtained by contacting Rick Kenney of Porous Metal Filters (phone 407-682-1494).
Rick Kenney is available as a consulting engineer for related types of engineering and research needs.
