Coal-fired power provider Eins Energie, based in Chemnitz (Germany), has been supplying around 400,000 household and commercial customers in Chemnitz and the surrounding area with electricity and district heating since 1961. This case study illustrates how Gore helped Eins Energie to reduce mercury emissions to consistently below the applicable limit of 7 μg/m³.

Rainer Enggruber's presentation focuses on the development priorities for proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis (WE) systems to deliver a lower levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) to meet global clean energy demands in a net-zero economy.

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.

Alliance Pipeline tested hydrophobic (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) HEPA filters on two of its pipeline compressors. In a year of field testing, Alliance found that these filters had the same pressure drop as existing, lower efficiency filters, and that they eliminated the need to shut down compressors for off-line water washing (OLWW).

Compressor fouling and blade corrosion due to ingress of contaminants in the incoming air (dust, soot, salt, etc) has been an all too common problem for gas turbine operators, requiring frequent compressor washing.

FEBRUARY 2014 // After up to 11 years in the field, 29 tower-mounted amplifiers and combiners with GORE® Vents were inspected and integrity-tested. 100% of the units exceeded recommended airflow and 90% passed the IPX7 immersion test, demonstrating the vents’ exceptional reliability.
