description The invention regards a system and method for dry cleaning articles, the system comprising a cleaning basket (10) for receiving the articles, a tank (14, 16) containing a solvent, a pump (12) coupled between the tank (14, 16) and the cleaning basket (10) for introducing solvent into the cleaning basket, either a still for distilling the solvent or a Kleen Rite TM cartridge filter system, a fan (32) coupled to the cleaning basket (10) for circulating air past a heater (34) and into the cleaning basket (10) for drying the articles, a condenser (36) coupled to the cleaning basket (10) and producing a condensed mixture of water and solvent; and a separator (28) coupled to the condenser (36) for separating water in the condensed mixture from solvent in the condensed mixture. According to the invention the solvent is a siloxane solvent, the separator (28) separates water in the condensed mixture from siloxane solvent in the condensed mixture via gravity, and at least one coalescent medium (56, 64) is provided that is coupled to or located inside the separator (28).
