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. |
