Griffin Environmental is a leader in the
technology of the high-temperature ceramic filter. This technology
was developed when the company recognized the need for a collector
that would operate at temperatures higher than 500° F, which is the
normal limit for a baghouse.
Although these units are custom designed, the following
are details from a recently manufactured collector which performs
at continuous temperatures of 1000° F. It is a jet pulse unit 11'
in diameter and holds 154 ceramic filters, each three meters long.
The ceramic filter elements are made in one piece from inert ceramic
materials. They are 6" in diameter and come in 1 and 3 meter lengths
with a recommended temperature range from 500° F (260° C) up to 1650°
F (900° C). Some of their qualities include: high efficiency; acid
and alkali resistance (except HF); good thermal shock resistance;
fire and spark resistance. |
