FABRIC FILTER TECHNOLOGY FOR UTILITY COAL-FIRED POWER PLANTS.

Abstract

This series of articles was prepared at EPRI and is reprinted from the January-June 1984 issue of the Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association. The articles discuss the experiences of electric utilities in applying fabric filter (baghouse) technology for the collection of particulate matter at coal-fired electric power generating plants. The series presents new data obtained in research sponsored by EPRI on reverse-gas and shake/deflate cleaned baghouses and specifically addresses a number of unresolved issues in the design and operation of these units.
