Abstract:
A non-woven low surface energy filter element designed to have improved removal of a dispersed liquid phase from a continuous liquid phase is disclosed.
Abstract:
A coalescing filter includes a coalescing filter medium having an entrance face and an exit face and a surface energy, the coalescing filter also having a drainage channel in the coalescing filter medium, the drainage channel being a woven or non-woven fiber construct having a pore size greater than the pore size of said coalescing filter medium and having a surface energy that is lower than the surface energy of the coalescing filter medium, the drainage channel extending at a downward angle relative to the direction from the entrance face to the exit face.
