Question about special cyclone application

[Mike Goetzke]

I'm a proud/happy owner of a CV1800. I have a question about a non-woodworking application of a cyclone. I'm looking for a device to separate oil mist for air on an engine. The crankcase flow rate is about 400CFM maximum. Looking for thoughts on sizing a cyclone to remove the big oil particles and possible a filter to get the remainder.

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,
I think you will find that mist are a totally different cat and the technology required to deal with the problem quite different.
You could start at http://www.misteliminators.org/all/ and go from there.

Wynn Environmental deal is this business. Give them a call and see what you an learn.
