Inorganic, porous particles filter a substance or substances from a flow of fluid such as a gas. The particles can be arranged into a bed to filter a substance (filtrate substance) from a fluid. The filtrate substance can collect on or within the pores of the inorganic particles. Collection of the filtrate substance within the pores of the particles rather than within the interstices of the bed enhances the filtering capacity and does not impede the flow of fluid through the bed of particles. Furthermore, the inorganic particles are re-usable, in that they can be subjected to harsh filtrate-separation techniques, e.g., heat treatment, solvent extraction, detergent washing, and centrifugal separation, yet retain their desired properties.

1. A ventilation system for substantially separating oleo material from an air stream comprising:a bed of inorganic, porous particles for absorbing the oleo material which is separated from the air stream;wherein the ventilation system is configured to channel the air stream from an area where the oleo material is being heated to another location, the ventilation system being configured so that at least substantially all of the air stream flows through the bed. 2. The ventilation system of claim 1, wherein a dimension of a single inorganic, porous particle is about 0.1 mm to about 4 mm. 3. The ventilation system of claim 1, wherein the inorganic, porous particles are spherical, pellet or pellet-like in shape, ring shaped, saddle shaped or a combination thereof. 4. The ventilation system of claim 1 wherein the particles include an exterior surface and a plurality of channels that open onto the exterior surface and define internal surfaces for collecting the oleo material. 5. The ventilation system of claim 4, wherein the channels have a mean size of about 0.01 micron to about 10 micron. 6. The ventilation system of claim 1, wherein the porous, inorganic particles are about 15% porous to about 70% porous. 7. The ventilation system of claim 1, wherein the inorganic, porous particles are at least partially composed of transition metal oxide, zircon, silica, alumina, alumina-silica, kaolin, bentonite, montmorillonite, or a combination thereof. 8. The ventilation system of claim 4, wherein the rate of collection of the oleo material within the channels is greater than the rate that the oleo material collects within interstices between the particles. 9. The ventilation system of claim 4, wherein the oleo material is collected within the channels by capillary action. 10. A method for substantially separating an oleo material from an air stream comprising:moving at least substantially all of the air stream through a bed of inorganic, porous particles configured to absorb the oleo material;wherein the bed of particles is positioned in a ventilation system which is used to channel the air stream from an area where the oleo material is being heated to another location. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the drop in pressure of the air stream passing through the bed remains substantially constant for a period of time during which the particles are being used to filter the oleo material from the air stream. 12. The method of claim 10, further comprising substantially separating the oleo material from the inorganic, porous particles. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein after the separation step, the inorganic, porous particles are again placed into contact with the air stream. 14. A filtration media comprising a three-dimensional bed of inorganic, porous particles arranged to separate oleo material from an air stream at least substantially all of which passes through the bed, wherein the bed of inorganic, porous particles defines interstices between at least some of the inorganic, porous particles, and wherein at least some of the inorganic, porous particles include an exterior surface and a plurality of pores that open onto said exterior surface and define internal surfaces for collecting the oleo material from the exterior surface to mitigate collection of oleo material within the interstices and wherein said particles and pores include an oleophilic surface that draws the oleo material within the pores from the exterior surface of the particles; and wherein the filtration media is configured to be positioned in a ventilation system which is used to channel the air stream from an area where the oleo material is being heated to another location. 15. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein a dimension of a single inorganic, porous particle is about 0.25 mm to about 4 mm, and the pores have a mean cross-sectional dimension of no less than about 0.01 micron. 16. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein a dimension of a single inorganic, p orous particle is greater than about 4 mm. 17. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein the inorganic, porous particles are spherical, pellet or pellet-like in shape, ring shaped, saddle shaped or a combination thereof. 18. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein the oleo material is in the air stream as an aerosol. 19. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein the inorganic, porous particles comprise a ceramic material. 20. The filtration media of claim 14, wherein the inorganic, porous particles comprise a metal. 21. An apparatus for substantially separating an oleo material from an air stream, comprising filtration media of claim 14, a duct positioned in relationship with the bed of particles, wherein the air stream passes through at least a portion of the duct before passing through the bed. 22. A filtration media comprising:a plurality of porous particles arranged in a bed, the particles being configured to remove grease from an air stream which passes through the bed, the particles comprising at least one of metal, ceramic material, or combinations thereof;wherein the filtration media is configured to be used in a ventilation system which channels the air stream from an area where the grease is being heated to another location. 23. The filtration media of claim 22 wherein the particles comprise a ceramic material. 24. The filtration media of claim 22 wherein the particles are configured to absorb the grease. 25. The filtration media of claim 22 wherein the particles comprise silica. 26. A filtration media comprising:a plurality of porous particles arranged in a bed, the particles being configured to remove grease from an air stream which passes through the bed, the particles comprising at least one of a transition metal oxide, zircon, silica, alumina, alumina-silica, or combinations thereof;wherein the filtration media is configured to be used in a ventilation system which channels the air stream from an area where the grease is being heated to another location. 27. The filtration media of claim 26 wherein the particles comprise silica. 28. The filtration media of claim 26 wherein the particles are configured to absorb the grease. 29. The filtration media of claim 26 wherein the particles are inorganic. 30. The filtration media of claim 26, wherein the particles comprise at least one of zirconia, titania, iron, or combinations thereof. 31. The filtration of claim 26, wherein the alumina-silica comprises at least one of kaolin, bentonite, montmorillonite, or combinations thereof. 32. The ventilation system of claim 1, wherein the bed is positioned in a duct. 33. The ventilation system of claim 7, wherein the inorganic porous particles are at least partially composed of zirconia, titania, iron, or combinations thereof.
