    Troubleshooting Issues: Stack Emissions

    Uploaded by

    Improper bag installation or broken bags can cause stack emissions issues. High or unstable pressure drop may be due to a filter that is too small, added airflows, or insufficient cleaning air pressure. Baghouse cleaning systems with improperly set controls can result in dust cake buildup, bag damage, or particle bleed-through. Periodic offline bag cleaning improves performance over time.

    Troubleshooting Issues

    • Stack Emissions:
    – Improper Bag Installation
    – Broken bag(s)
    • Abrasive material
    – Material handling inlet
    • Too frequent pulse cleaning
    – Adjust timer board
    Filter Bag Installation and General Information
    • When changing filter bags; change all bags at same time
    • Special bags may be needed if moisture, temperature, abrasion, and/or
    chemicals are an issue.
    • Periodic cleaning of bags “off-line” when system is down
    – Improves bag life and filter performance over time
    – Keep airlock running to discharge dust
    – If bags were blinded over (due to any number of reasons), they can be cleaned
    to functionality again, or at least recover sufficient performance until they can
    be changed
    Filter Bag Installation – the right way
    Bags are 2” longer than cages and tuck the extra
    2” INSIDE for sealing inside and outside
    Filter Bag Installation – incorrect
    • Not tucked in so there is no seal on inside
    • Not over the bead; will slip off
    Top Bag Filter Bag Installation
    Troubleshooting Issues
    • High or Unstable Pressure Drop / Bag Blinding:
    – Premature increase in pressure drop
    – Magnehelic gauge climbs quickly

    • Filter undersized? (high air:cloth)


    • Air added to filter after initial design?
    – Increase filtration area / re-allocate air
    • Unable to build adequate pressure in cleaning air?
    – Adjust cleaning air timer
    – Maintain blast valves
    Baghouse Cleaning Systems Problems & Symptoms
    “On Demand”
    Confirm settings of controls for bag cleaning jumper
    The air pressure and timer board regulate frequency, duration, “Off” setting “On” setting
    and amplitude of reverse air cleaning of bags. adjustment adjustment

    If pressure, frequency, amplitude settings are too low:


    • “Dust cake” layer can build up too thick and bags don’t get cleaned,
    resulting in:
    • Higher pressure drop
    • Shortened bag life
    • Lower than anticipated air volumes in system

    If pressure, frequency, amplitude settings are too high:


    • May result in over cleaning of bags:
    • Premature bag failure in the form of rips or holes
    • May prevent “dust cake” build up on bags utilizing “depth”
    filtration, resulting in:
    • Particles allowed to “bleed-through” bags, producing
    emissions to atmosphere.
    • Bags blinded over by small particulate imbedding in bags
    without “dust cake” – resulting in increased pressure
    drop, reduced air volume, and shortened bag life. Firing sequence
