(under subclass 296) Method or apparatus wherein (a) fibers are deposited on a fluid permeable condenser by a gaseous stream which has several paths of travel to the condenser; (b) stray fibers caught on the outside of the condenser are returned to one of the air streams for recirculation to the condenser; or (c) unwanted material is removed from the apparatus.
