Types of Filtering Systems

Coalesce type filter

The filter tank contains a hydrophilic material i.e. a material with a capability for absorbing or taking up water rather than oil.

Oily water separators and auxiliary equipment possible problems

The first problem centers on the capacity of the oily separators.

The second problem is that the separation process is adversely affected by detergents used in cleaning the engine room and its bilges, or by emulsifiers present in lubricating oil.

Another problem is caused by the deterioration in the quality of fuel oil.
