1. A modular header for a filtration module assembly, the modular header comprising:
a main body;
a first liquid passageway and a second liquid passageway each extending through the main body;
a gas passageway extending through the main body, the gas passageway having a first open end formed at a first side surface of the main body and an opposing second open end formed at a second side surface of the main body; and
an adapter secured to the main body at at least one of the first and second open ends of the gas passageway, the adapter comprising an adapter main body circumscribing a generally cylindrical opening, a first conduit extending from a first surface of the adapter main body and configured to be received within the at least one of the first and second open ends of the gas passageway, and a second conduit extending from a second surface of the adapter main body, the second conduit being a connector portion configured to connect to an adjacent modular header.
