Bag filters, for

The simulated FBAC consists of an acrylic main reactor (0.5m-H x 0.5m-W x l.Om-L), an air distributor system, particles feeding system including a feed hopper, a discharging sampler, a bag filter for capture of the elutriated fine particles and, pressure and flow rate measurement systems (Fig. 1). The air distributor system has ten air headers. An individual air header is connected with 5 air nozzles and can regulate the airflow rate. The opening ratio of the distributor is 2.1% and each nozzle has four holes for uniform air supply. To measure the pressure fluctuation at an individual air header, high frequency pressure transmitters were mounted at the approach and the exit headers of the FBAC. 

A preliminary investigation on dioxin emission from MSWI in China has been campaigned by Tian and Ouyang (2003). Flue gas of 15 different types of MSW incinerators was monitored. About half of the data exceeded the national standard for dioxin emissions limit (1 ng TEQ m-3 National Standard of the People s Republic of China, 2001) and the highest was at 100 ng TEQ m-3 level. However, this report did not provide precise concentrations. Total dioxin emissions to air from MSWI was estimated to be 72 ng TEQ annually in China based on the monitoring data of Tian and Ouyang (2003). Stack furnaces (with bag filters for dust removal) are the major type of MSW incinerators in China but not the major contributor to dioxin emissions. Fluid-bed furnaces accounted for 60% of the dioxin emissions from MSWI.

The East Bridgewater facility (also serving Brockton), was built with an incinerator, (conventional except that it has bag filters for emission control), and as an alternate disposal means, a Resource Recovery facility. In 1972 CEA entered into an agreement with Arthur D. Little (ADL) to develop processes for emission controls from stationary sources and also for treatment of Municipal Solid Wastes. 

At the start of filtration in a cake filter some solid particles enter the pores of the medium and are immobilized, but soon others begin to collect on the septum surface. After this brief initial period the cake of solids does the filtration, not the septum a visible cake of appreciable thickness builds up on the surface and must be periodically removed. Except as noted under bag filters for gas cleaning, cake filters are used almost entirely for liquid-solid separations. As with other filters they may operate with above-atmospheric pressure upstream from the filter medium or with vacuum applied downstream. Either type can be continuous or discontinuous, but because of the difficulty of discharging the solids against a positive pressure, most pressure filters are discontinuous. 

The silo may be constructed of steel, concrete, glass fibre, or wood and must be completely weatherproof. It should be vented via a bag filter. For calculating silo capacity, a bulk density of 480 k m is generally appropriate although the value may range from below 400 kg/m when the hydrate is aerated to 560 kg/m when it is fully compacted. 

PAI fibers have been proposed for the use in high-temperature bag filters for exhaust gas facilities. Conventionally, aramid fibers have been used as heat resistant fibers for bag filters. PAI fibers are more easier produced than aramid fibers.

Pneumatic cleaning devices, or air tables, are applied to the small fractions (less than 3/8 in.). In these devices, currents of air flow upward through a perforated bottom plate over which a layer of coal passes. The extreme fines are entrapped in the air and must be recaptured by cyclones and bag filters for return without quality improvement. As the coal reaches the end of the tables, the bottom layer is heavy (high-ash) material, a center layer is medium-weight coal and bone (high-ash), and the top layer is coal (low-ash). The middle layer must be incorporated with the refuse (and rewashed) or with the coal.

The collection efficiency of bag filters for various dust particle sizes is given approximately in Fig. 3.5-13. These collection efficiencies are realized for bags in good condition with miniit holes. The wearing of bag fabric is a severe problem and means should be provided to check the filter performance to detect bag failures before they become catastrc ic. 

Another major market for MPDI fabrics is as bag filters for a number of industries, such as power plants, cement factories, and steel factories, where the ability to withstand hot, corrosive gases is critical. 

In order to increase the purification efficiency we may also use a combination of a cyclone dust catcher (for trapping the large particles) and a bag filter for catching the small ones [413].
