Reply to "why is vacuum dehydration more efficient that filtration in water removal?"

augustopancorvoMember

The filters will get very expensive on the long term if you have lots of water, and the problem with vacuum dehydration is that it will not remove any loose particles that may get into your oil with the water or from the lubricated parts.

I think the best alternative is to use a centrifuge, it will remove loose particles and will efficiently remove all water from the systems, even if its emulsified.

We have had some experiences with emulsified water on oil and after 2 or 3 passes at 60°C the oil was completely clear.
