OVERVIEW

Dust laden flue gases, process off-gases, and vent gases are generated from the large array of industrial process such as boilers, process heaters, dryers, storage bins, silos, material handling, blast machines, etc. While environmental regulations often stipulate limits for particulate matter (PM) emissions for specific industries and applications, more often practices for effective dust control are governed by specific process conditions and a host of local regulations, safety and “good neighbor” considerations.
Selecting a Filtration System
Pulse-jet fabricChoosing Fabric Filters or Cartridge Collectors for Industrial Dust Control filters and cartridge collectors are the most widely used devices for industrial dust collection and control. In either case, it is definitely not “one size fits all”. While pulse-jet filter bags and cartridge collectors are similar in terms of how they work, selection depends on a number of design parameters.
In this informative webinar, Jeffrey Shellenberger, Fabric Filter Product Manager and Duane Reinholt, Standard Products Commercial Manager, both from Amec Foster Wheeler will review how both fabric filters and cartridge collectors are best applied for collecting and controlling PM dusts for a wide range of industrial applications. Topics presented will include:
Key sizing criteria for fabric filters – Air-to-Cloth Ratio and Can Velocity
Sizing of cartridge collectors using Face Velocity
Dealing with challenges such as hygroscopic and sticky dusts, hot gases, and limited space
Comparing total installed and operating costs for fabric filters vs. cartridge collectors for specific cases
Case Studies
In addition, case studies for two industrial dust collection installations will be discussed:
Ventilation of various processes at a potash mine where a filter baghouse was selected over a cartridge collector due to the hygroscopic dusts and moisture present
Indoor dust collection from a potash storage bin where a cartridge collector was selected
Attendees can ask questions which will be covered during the Q&A session of the webinar.
