Disclosed is an apparatus for enhancing filtration. Enhanced filtration is promoted via the eccentric movement of charged particles within a defined space. This eccentric movement causes the charged particles to collide and conglomerate. The conglomeration, in turn, improves the efficiency of downstream filer media.
