Applications

Built for the Toughest
Industrial Environments

Oil mist filtration is a requirement across machine shops, metalworking facilities, and fabrication industries worldwide. Left unaddressed, oily mist accumulates in the working environment, creating health hazards and degrading air handling equipment over time.

  • Mist Collectors

    MYCELX filters drop into any mist collector, repel water, and last longer by maximizing oil-loading capacity.

  • Air Handlers

    Air handlers aren’t built for oil, MYCELX pre-filtration captures it upstream, protecting the entire system.

  • Machine Shops
    & Metalworking

    Metalworking creates constant oily mist, MYCELX captures it at the source before it spreads or escapes.

  • Manufacturing &
    Industrial Processing

    Wherever oily mist forms, MYCELX prevents it from re-entering plant air, no system changes required.

Performance Benefits

What Sets the MYCELX
Polymer Apart

Six measurable advantages that distinguish MYCELX air filtration from conventional filter media — each grounded in the behavior of the proprietary polymer.

  1. Water Rejection
    on Contact

    The MYCELX polymer is hydrophobic. When oil-contaminated water enters the filter, it is rejected on contact, immediately preserving filter capacity for oil and particulate capture rather than water absorption.

  2. Longer Intervals
    Between Changeouts

    The polymer slows differential pressure buildup, the trigger for premature replacement, allowing full oil saturation and reducing maintenance and media costs.

  3. Effective Capture
    of Oily Mist Streams

    Oily mist streams are typically 90–95% water by composition. MYCELX is specifically engineered for this environment, intercepting oil and oily solids before they re-entrain into plant air or discharge to atmosphere.

  4. Fits Existing
    Infrastructure

    MYCELX-infused filters are compatible with mist collectors and air handlers already in service. There is no requirement to modify housings, replace equipment, or interrupt operations during integration.

  5. Protects Costly
    HEPA Stages

    Deployed as a pre-treatment layer upstream of HEPA filters, MYCELX removes the bulk oil burden before it reaches final-stage media. The result is a measurable extension of HEPA service life and a reduction in total system operating cost.

  6. Scalable Across
    the Filter Train

    Multiple MYCELX stages can be integrated throughout a filter train, improving performance at every level. Applied to pleated filters or foam retrofits, configurations are tailored to system requirements.
