A pneumatic air filter works by removing contaminants from compressed air systems to ensure clean air for various applications. It typically uses a combination of mechanical filtration, where particles are trapped by a filter media, and sometimes coalescing filtration, which captures moisture and oil by causing them to coalesce into larger droplets that can then be drained away. The filtered air then passes through the system, maintaining efficiency and preventing damage to downstream components. Regular maintenance and replacement of the filter element are essential for optimal performance.
In a nutshell, pneumatics is a means whereby signals and energy are transmitted, controlled and distributed using pressurized air as the medium. Pneumatics can be effectively combined with other technologies through the use of sensors, transducers and microprocessors
They are gases, usually air.

One similarity is that they both use fluids. Both gasses and liquids are fluids. the two are also compressible.
hydraulic is liquid based, pneumatic is air.
Ionic air filters work by helping to clean the air, and keep all the dirt and dust trapped inside. The filter allows clean air to escape through, and keep the air healthy to breathe.
In pneumatics, air is used as the working fluid to transmit power. It is compressible, meaning it can be easily compressed to store energy and transmit force. Air is also readily available, inexpensive, and non-toxic, making it a popular choice for pneumatic systems.
One uses a liquid, one uses air. not the same
oil is slightly compressible 0.5 % at 70 bar. but air is compressible. so to get the required pressure pneumatics require more energy source than hydraulics also there are some limitations for pneumatics in terms of force.
The air flow affects the performance of an air filter by determining how efficiently it can capture and remove particles from the air passing through it. Insufficient air flow can reduce the filter's effectiveness, while proper air flow allows the filter to work optimally in trapping contaminants.
