A carbon black producer sought to improve process stability, production efficiency and bag life in their purge gas operations.
Therefore, the customer removed their incumbent filter bags and equipped the baghouse with GORE LOW DRAG Filter Bags.
For the duration of this trial, the cleaning-pulse pressure was reduced from 6 bar to 4.5 bar. All other process parameters were identical to those used for the incumbent bags.

Originally presented at the AWMA 90th Annual Meeting & Exhibition in Toronto an article on the long term performance of GORE membrane filter bags at a municipal solid waste combustion facility.

The GORE Mercury Control System (GMCS) is a unique fixed sorbent system for capturing elemental and oxidized gas phase mercury from industrial flue gas. The system is based on discrete stackable modules that are installed downstream of a particulate collection system.

The Asheville, NC Metropolitan Sewerage District treatment plant has upgraded its Incineration system with the GORE Mercury Control System to ensure full compliance with EPA mercury emissions standards.  After a comparative analysis, Gore’s system was determined to be simple, efficient, and the most cost effective solution, saving the plant $5M-plus along with helping to meet new stringent emissions standards.

Under Article 8 of the Minamata Convention, the cement industry is obligated to reduce mercury pollution around the globe. The GORE Mercury Control System is a simple, low cost, low maintenance solution for mercury control – offering guaranteed compliance with the strictest mercury emissions limits.
