From Electrostatic Precipitator to Fabric Filter

Due to increased emission requirements, or a worn-out ESP - you may have to upgrade your ESP capacity. There are many cost effective ways to do so. A well proven solution is to convert your old ESP into a bagfilter. Or even reduce the total upgrading cost by converting your filter with a hybrid solution, only changing parts of your existing ESP.

Other reasons for converting your ESP could be:

Mechanical or electrical equipment is worn out
Production has increased
Emission requirements more rigorous
Change in fuel or raw material

By converting your existing ESP you will gain from the following benefits:

Short plant stop time
Low cost
Reduced delivery time
Reuse of existing equipment e.i. structures-dust transport etc.
Flexible design for all makes of ESP's
Reuse of existing control system for auxiliary equipment

Some solutions for up-grading your ESP with a bagfilter:

Example A:
One Dirty Gas Chamber/One Clean Gas Chamber
No Dampers: Only possible to perform on-line cleaning
Maintenance: Not possible On-line

Example B:
A number of Dirty Gas Chambers/A number of Clean Gas Chambers
Inlet and Outlet Dampers included: Possible to perform on- and off-line cleaning
Maintanance: Possible On-line

Example C:
One Dirty Gas Chamber/One Clean Gas Chamber
Inlet and Outlet Dampers included: Possible to perform on- and off-line cleaning.
Maintanance: Possible On-line

Example D:
Hybrid Filter Combined ESP and Fabric Filter
Inlet and Outlet Dampers included: Synergy between the two systems thereby reducing the anticipated loss of pressure in the fabric filter section.
