Coal fired power plants in India are under regulatory pressure to reduce emissions of SO₂, among other pollutants. In choosing flue gas desulfurization (FGD) solutions, plants must consider factors such as reagent cost, availability and handling, site space constraints, auxiliary power consumption, reaction byproduct disposal, fly ash preservation, and required outage time, in addition to overall cost and complexity to operate.

A multinational producer of alumina catalyst desired longer pulse jet filter bag life and steadier operation in their dryer bag house. For this trial, they installed GORE LOW DRAG Filter Bags on an identical backer.

Gore’s filtration solutions keep you running longer, more efficiently and with greater particulate capture. Our filters are constructed using advanced materials, including expanded PTFE, a highly versatile material that is chemically inert, durable and resistant to extreme temperatures. These attributes make our filters reliable in harsh conditions, over time and when interacting with harmful chemicals.

Sewage sludge, municipal solid waste, and hazardous waste incinerators around the world are under continual regulatory pressure to reduce emissions of various pollutants. The GORE Mercury and SO₂ Control System is a unique, scalable, low-cost fixed catalyst and sorbent system for removing gas phase SO₂ and mercury from incineration flue gas.

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.

As mercury emission challenges arise in cement plants, the GORE Mercury Control System provides a complete solution when other measures fail.
