This informative webinar will cover the following topics:

  • Cost effective filter media selection for coal-fired utility boilers

  • Efficiency advantages of choosing the right filter media in reducing emissions of vapor and gas phase constituents

  • Operating cost and lost opportunity costs associated with selecting the wrong filter media

  • Evonik’s P84®, comparative filter media case studies

    • 225 MW United States Power Plant

    • 1,980 MW South African Power Plant

    • 3,450 MW South African Power Plant

Evonik’s P84® Polyimide fiber provides a proven high-temperature filter media option. In this webinar, Nathan Schindler and Florin Popovici will cover, specifically, how choosing the right filter media for your coal-fired boiler can reduce your operating costs, increase your bag life, and increase your reliability.

Specific questions to be addressed include:

  • What are the key differences between conventional fibers and Evonik’s P84®?

  • How do I meet MATS and other emission requirements without sacrificing efficiency?

  • How does reduced pressure drop and ΔP recovery translate into lower operating costs?

  • How does the proper filtration decision prevent unit derate?

  • How does sorbent injection impact baghouse performance and bag media selection?

  • What type of coal is being fired at the Arnot Plant (bituminous, sub-bituminous)?

  • How do different fuel species (e.g., Western PRB, lignite, Eastern bituminous, ILB) impact P84 performance?

  • Is baghouse filtration better than electrostatic precipitation separation processes?

  • Why are PAN (Acrylic) fibers not a good option?

  • What is the PM-2.5 collection efficiency with and without P84 fibers?
