What is the difference between filtering particulate matter and filtering oil mist? !
Thread Content
Particulates are solids, while oil mist is a liquid. Will oil mist be compressed into smaller droplets under pressure? What is the difference between particulate matter and oil mist? What are the requirements for the filter material?
I really don’t know; I’m here to check in and study*. Is oil mist generally filtered by centrifugation?
Can glass fiber filter media be used?
Particulates are solids, while oil mist is a liquid. Particulates can be separated from gases or solids through filtration, or from gases through cyclone separation ； Oil mist can be separated into gas and liquid phases, or it can be absorbed by water and then separated through layering; layer separation can also be achieved using an oil separator.
The difference between solid-liquid separation and gas-liquid separation is that many filter materials used for gas-liquid separation can be appropriately used for solid-liquid separation, while only a small portion of the filter materials used for solid-liquid separation are suitable for gas-solid separation. As for how to choose specifically, it depends on what you plan to use it for. I work in the field of filtration; those who need it can add me on QQ to discuss further

It is gas-liquid and gas-solid separation. What I’m asking about is gas-liquid separation, to filter out oil mist droplets.
