“…Shrinkage can occur in woven and nonwoven fabrics and filter media by several mechanisms including thermal [14,15] and chemical reactions [16], and through polymer chain relaxation in polymer fibers due to interaction with solvents [17]. Shrinkage of fabrics of several different materials has been reported, including cotton fabrics [18], cotton-polyester blended fabrics [19], silk fabrics [20], wool fabrics [21] and polymer fibrous mats [22].…”

The paper presents an experimental study of coalescing filters for separating oil from compressed air in industrial systems. A test bench for measuring filter efficiency was set up which reproduces several typical operating conditions of pneumatic systems. Tests were carried out on commercial products, using filters of different sizes as well as several borosilicate cartridges of similar size and shape. Preliminary analysis of cartridges indicated significant differences in glass fiber dimensions and binder composition. Test results made it possible to compare performance achieved by the different configurations in terms of efficiency and pressure drop. Further measurements were repeated with different cartridge supply system geometries. One of the tested filter‐cartridge‐supply system configurations was then used to investigate system behavior while varying certain operating parameters individually: air velocity, oil concentration, filter supply pressure, and operating time. Results are presented in statistical form.

Fibrous fi lters are often used to remove contaminants including both dusts and liquid droplets from natural gas. This paper aims to evaluate the gas-liquid separation performance of three types of cartridge fi lters used in the West-East natural gas transmission project. The comparison of the original pressure drop of clean fi lters and the evolution of pressure drop as liquid droplets deposited in the fi lter media are described. The original pressure drops of these filters were similar but the pressure drops at a steady state were different. Fractional efficiency was used to study the separation performance of cartridge fi lters. Droplets at the outlet of the fi lters had small diameters, no more than 3 μm, but were very numerous. The effect of fi ltration velocity on gas-liquid separation performance was analyzed. Higher fi ltration velocity indicated better gas-liquid separation performance. Finally the quality factor related to pressure drop and fi ltration effi ciency was applied to evaluate the gas-liquid separation performance.
