Description

Filter operation and maintenance are important for assuring cement manufacture efficiency. If not
maintained properly, the dedusting equipment will cause kiln stops and thereby substantial financial losses.
This course introduces filter operation and maintenance procedures and techniques. Operation and maintenance
is treated in the same course, as erratic operation has a great impact on maintenance needs.

Learning objectives
The purpose of the course is to teach the participants how to perform the specified maintenance procedures
and repair works, and explain the correlation between operational parameters, filter behaviour and
maintenance needs.

Benefits
The increased knowledge of maintenance procedures, the implementation of them and proper understanding of
the individual operational parameters will significantly improve the performance of the filters and increase
plant efficiency.

Form
The course is a combination of theoretical classroom lectures and exercises.

Documentation
Each participant will receive a binder with a complete set of training materials.

Target group
The course is designed for participants with practical experience in operation or maintenance of filters such as maintenance
engineers and control room operators.
