When electrostatic precipitators are unable to meet tighter emission regulations, it can be more economical to modify them to bag filters rather than replace them with a new bag filter. Gorco SA highlights the key points to consider. By Eduardo Sauto, Gorco SA, Spain.
Increasingly strict environmental emissions legislation has been a key driver behind the development of advances in gas filtration technology. In the cement industry, bag filters are considered state-of-the-art gas filtration systems as their performance and durability surpasses electrostatic precipitator (ESP) technology.
