In industrial filtration, removing water from another liquid involves three phases: particulate filtration, coalescing, and separation. First, particulate filtration eliminates solid particles from the liquid to protect the coalescer from clogging or damage. In the second phase, coalescing, small water droplets combine into larger ones, making them easier to remove. Finally, in the separation phase, the water is fully removed from the liquid. This article focuses on the coalescing phase but highlights how effective particulate filtration improves coalescer efficiency.
