| Abstract: | Oil water dispersions have been separated efficiently using composite beds made up of several materials. Selection of these materials was based on their wetting properties and fibre size. A bed composed of three layers: two fibre glass layers of different sizes followed by woven layer of polypropylene and stainless steel was found to give the best results. |
