1. A method for filtering a gas, the method comprising:
- delivering a gas into a compartment of a gas filter assembly, the compartment being at least partially bounded by a casing comprised of a flexible sheet of polymeric film; and
applying a partial vacuum to the gas filter assembly so that the partial vacuum assists in drawing the gas through a porous filter body of the gas filter assembly that is at least partially disposed within the compartment of the gas filter assembly.

13. A system for filtering a gas comprising:
-
a container having a compartment configured to hold a liquid; a first gas filter assembly coupled with the container so that a gas can pass from the compartment of the container to the first gas filter assembly, the first gas filter assembly comprising; a casing comprised of a flexible polymeric film bounding a compartment; and a first filter body being at least partially disposed within the compartment of the casing; and a first vacuum pump coupled with the first gas filter assembly so that when the first vacuum pump is activated a partial vacuum is produced that assists in drawing gas from the container through the first gas filter assembly. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
