Specific topics will include:

  • What are the key differences between ePTFE membrane and Evonik’s polyimide P84® fibers?

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

  • How can Evonik’s newest fiber help your plant handle high temperature upsets?

  • How do I meet Cement MACT 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 production losses and even increase production?

Eliminating unplanned outages due to poor bag performance requires a thorough evaluation of filter media options for each pulse-jet baghouse in your plant.  Plants under pressure to increase production often push their bags beyond their limit causing not just short bag-life but also increased fan horsepower and compressed air consumption, increased labor costs, and reduced capacity. Further, the ever-increasing demand for higher cement quality generates increasing volumes of fine dust particles requiring a highly effective filter media.

Below are some of the questions discussed during the webinar:

  • Are most baghouses followed by a gas cooling unit, or do you have high-temperature bags?

  • How do you effectively clean extremely fine particles from a baghouse with a pulse jet without having the gas reentrain the particles after cleaning?

  • Is the application of precoating common in cement filters? Which costs are impacted?

  • Are there any issues with incinerating spent P84 bags?

  • Can you explain how fiberglass/membrane bags are different from P84 bags? What is the air-to-cloth ratio?

  • If the filter bag specifications state "P-84, or Equal," what might be considered 'equal'?

  • Do you sell bags for cement plants? How do we obtain bags made of P84? Is P84 new to the market?
