    This document provides an overview of bag filters, which are air pollution control devices that remove particulates from industrial processes using fabric filter bags. It describes the basic components and working of baghouses, including the cartridges, air-to-cloth ratio, and three common cleaning methods: mechanical shakers, reverse air, and pulse jet. Performance is influenced by factors like gas temperature, pressure drop, and flow rate. Key design variables include pressure drop, filter drag, and air-to-cloth ratio. Baghouses can remove particles down to 1 micron in size and typically have a particulate collection efficiency over 99%.

    BAG FILTERS

    PRESENTED BY:
    NAMRITA CHAUDHARY
    INTRODUCTION-
    ◦ A baghouse, also known as a baghouse filter, bag filter, or fabric filter is an air pollution control device
    and dust collector that removes particulates or gas released from commercial processes.
    ◦ Power plants, steel mills, pharmaceutical producers, food manufacturers, chemical producers and other
    industrial companies often use baghouses to control emission of air pollutants.
    ◦ Cartridges- These are basically non-woven and are used in the applications when there is relatively low
    dust loading.
    ◦ Air- to- cloth ratio- This is also known as filter velocity. It is simply calculated by dividing the amount
    of airflow by the amount of filter media in the dust collector.
    Comparison with Electrostatic
    Precipitators-
    ◦ Unlike electrostatic precipitators, where performance may vary significantly depending upon
    the process and electrical conditions, functioning baghouses typically have a particulate
    collection efficiency of 99% or better, even when the particle size is very small.
    Working-
    ◦ Most
      baghouses use long, cylindrical bags( or
    tubes) made of woven or felted fabric( textile
    material) as a filter media.
    ◦ Dust- laden gas or air enters the baghouse through
    hoppers and is directed into the baghouse
    compartment. The gas is drawn through the bags
    and a layer of dust accumulates on the filter media
    surface until air can no longer move through it.
    ◦ When a sufficient pressure drop( ΔP) occurs, the
    cleaning process begins.
    ◦ PARTICLE SIZE: This type of filter is capable of
    BAG
    removing particles of a size down to 1 or less by
    the use of glass fibre paper or pads. FILTER
    Types-
    Baghouses are classified on the basis the cleaning method used.
    The three most common types of baghouses are:
    1. Mechanical shakers
    2. Reverse gas
    3. Pulse jet
    Mechanical shakers-
    ◦ In these baghouses, tubular filter bags are fastened onto a cell
    plate at the bottom of the baghouse and suspended from
    horizontal beams at the top.
    ◦ Dirty gas enters the bottom of the baghouse and passes through
    the filter, and the dust collects on the inside surface of the bags.
    ◦ Cleaning- It is accomplished by shaking the top horizontal bar
    from which the bags are suspended. Vibration produced by a
    motor- driven shaft creates waves in the bags to shake- off the
    dust cake.
    ◦ They can operate intermittently(on a batch basis) or
    continuously.
    ◦ The air- to- cloth ratio for these is relatively low, hence the
    space requirements are high.
    ◦ Due to the simplicity in their design, they are popular in mineral
    processing industries.
    MECHANICAL SHAKER
    Reverse air-
    ◦ In these baghouses, the bags are fastened onto a cell
    plate at the bottom of the baghouse and suspended
    from an adjustable hanger frame at the top.
    ◦ Dirty gas flow normally enters the baghouse and
    passes through the bag from the inside, and the dust
    collects on the inside of the bags.
    ◦ These are compartmentalized to allow continuous
    operation.
    ◦ Cleaning- Before filtration, a cleaning cycle begins in
    the compartment to be cleaned. By injecting the clean
    air in the reverse direction which creates pressure, the
    bags are cleaned. The pressure makes the bags
    REVERSE- AIR
    collapse partially, causing the dust cake to crack and
    fall into the hopper below. BAGHOUSE
    Pulse jet-
    ◦ In reverse pulse- jet baghouses, individual bags are
    supported by a filter cage, which is fastened onto a cell
    plate at the top of the baghouse.
    ◦ The dirty gas enters from the bottom of the baghouse and
    flows from outside to inside the bags.
    ◦ The metal cage prevents the collapse of the bag.
    ◦ Cleaning- A digital sequential timer turns on the solenoid
    valve at set interval to inject air(for a very short period of
    time) into the blow pipe and clean the filters.
    ◦ These can be operated continuously without interruption
    of flow. These are not compartmentalized.
    ◦ Due to their continuous cleaning feature, these operate at
    higher air- to cloth ratio, hence space requirements are PULSE- JET
    less.
    BAGHOUSE
    Factors influencing the
    performance-
    Baghouse performance is dependent upon the following mentioned factors:
    Gas temperature- Fabrics are designed in such a way that they operate within a certain temperature
    range. Fluctuations outside these limits, even for a small period of time, can weaken, damage or ruin the
    bags.
    Pressure drop- Baghouses operate most effectively within a certain pressure drop range. This range is
    based on a specific gas volumetric flow rate.
    Gas volumetric flow rate- Baghouses are created to accommodate a range of gas flows. An increase in
    the gas flow rates causes an increase in operating pressure drop and air- to- cloth ratio. These increases
    put more mechanical strain on the baghouses, resulting in more frequent cleanings and high particle
    velocity, two factors that shorten bag life.
    Design variables-
    The following are the essential factors in the design of a baghouse:
    Pressure drop- It is resistance to air flow across the baghouse. High pressure drop corresponds to the
    higher resistance of air flow. It is calculated by determining the difference between pressure at two
    points, typically at inlet and outlet.
    Filter drag- Resistance across the fabric- dust layer.
    Air- to- cloth ratio
