Oil removal filter. Please help filter noob.

[Blackthunder]

I have an Altaros Booster, which provides very dry air. The first stage compressor removes part of water trough it's tank, it has a water separator as well + the Altaros booster also has a separator + desiccant filter. So, water is not an issue with this booster.

I have noticed that the the Booster needs to be lubricated for it to run smoothly ( I use Molykote 33 for this). The problem is that it over time pumps out the lubricant together with the air.

So what can help me get rid of the grease?

I see these filters with cotton in them. The short Yong Heng ones or the long Tuxing ones. I assume that this removes oil / grease?

Molecular sieve and silica only remove water correct? And activated carbon is more for divers looking to improve air quality.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Are there any other ways of getting rid of oils?

Thanks.

Molycoat 33 is non-combustible. https://krayden.com/technical-data-sheet/dow_33_tds/

I believe any absorbent filter medium, such as cotton and/or charcoal, will cause the moly particles to adhere to the filtration, and purify your air output.

There are smaller type filters for oil/ water that you can put inline after the booster like this one

I tried a smaller version of the tuxing one and it had problems from day 1 with blowing out orings. I got the tuxing one after that but it is a lot bigger than the one I linked. If you end up getting the tuxing one I would order it from their store at aliexpress.
