Gas filtration system

The Biocube aerobic biofilter is an ex situ off-gas filtration system that is commercially available. The technology utilizes microbes to biologically oxidize volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and complex odors. It can be used in conjunction with vapor-vacuum-extraction (VVE), a process that draws gases from subsurface soil. These gases often require further treatment before being released into the atmosphere. Biocube has been field tested and has been implemented at over 100 sites for the treatment of hydrocarbon vapors. The technology has also been successfully used for odor control at a variety of sites. In addition, the Biocube system can treat odor and VOC emissions simultaneously. The units are modular, so additional stacks can be added as needed for increased flow and/or removal rates. 

Environment friendly A highly efficient, hot-gas filtration system separates the small quantities of catalyst fines. Besides the EDC removal via steam stripping, no additional wastewater treatment is required. The charter for European Council for Vinyl Manufacturers (ECVM) is easily met (EDC <5g/t of EDC purification capacity, copper < 1 g/t of oxychlorination capacity, dioxin-like components <1pg TEQ/t of oxychlorination capacity). 

The gas cleaning system has been developed and continually improved during the past year. Future work will look at building on the previous four years experience with a self-cleaning gas filtration system and use of a series 1 Jenbacher engine [146 kWe] for an onsite gasification system for Shawton Engineering Ltd.. 

Candle filters have in general proved highly efficient, even for very fine particles of sizes down to the order of 1 pm. However, a number of problems remain to be solved, such as the build-up of dust cake on the filters leading to occasional cake bridging between candles, filter failure and breakage. A number of hot gas filtration systems have been developed and tested under industrially relevant conditions an advanced particle filter (APF) containing 284 candles was installed at the 70 MW (electric) Tidd PFBC demonstration plant at Brilliant, Ohio gas flow and particle deposition have been modelled by Ahmadi and Smith [53] for the Tidd filter vessel and by Mazaheri and Ahmadi [54] for the Siemens-Westinghouse particulate control device (PCD).

Random and alternating copolymers typically exhibit properties that are between those of the corresponding homopolymers. Therefore, they often are developed to combine the properties of homopolymers into a single fiber. This is difficult to achieve by simply blending the homopolymers because most polymers are immiscible with each other. For example, fibers of polyaciylonitrile homopolymer have been used in hot gas filtration systems, outdoor fabrics, and precursors for carbon fibers. However, many commercial acrylic fibers actually are made... 

Gas Filtration Vendors are the primary source for sizing baghouses, however the process engineer should at the very least make an estimate of the pressure drop requirements for an intended system. The pressure drop will, of course, provide information needed on the approximate size of the fan needed, and the energy requirements needed to operate a system. In fact, pressure drop is the primary parameter in establishing particle removal efficiency for a fabric filtration unit, and hence, is usually the starting place for discussions with the equipment supplier.

Equimolar quantities of 2,4-diamino-l,5-benzenediol dihydrochloride and isophthalic acid were mixed in fresh poly (phosphoric acid) using a high-shear stirrer under a slow stream of nitrogen gas. The system was heated at 40°C for 6 hours, at CG°C for 18 hours, at 120°C for 6 hours, at 160°C for 8 hours, and at 220°C for 24 hours. The resultant mixture was dark brown. The polymer was precipitated from water. After filtration and washing with water and methanol, the solid product was then dissolved in methane-sulfonic acid, filtered and precipitated by the addition of methanol. The solid was washed with concentrated ammonium hydroxide, water, methanol, methanol/benzene mixtures (with a volume ratio of 1/1), and finally benzene. The final product was dark brown.
