AN OIL COALESCING FILTER FOR COALESCING DROPLETS OF ATOMISED OIL IN A STREAM OF GAS AND A PROCESS FOR THE SAME

摘要

A filter and filtering process for coalescing droplets of atomized oil in a stream of gas includes an oil coalescing layer (14) of e.g. glass microfibres and a second layer (18) of felt or foam downstream of the coalescing layer (14). The drainage layer is impregnated with a fluorocarbon to reduce oil carry-over.
