A producer of cement in Mexico was looking to consistently meet maximum kiln feed. The plant selected GORE^® LOW DRAG Filter Bags to replace its existing membrane filters. The bags’ new membrane promotes increased airflow through the baghouse with persistently low differential pressure.

Cement producers need filtration solutions that meet both their productivity goals and their bottom line. When a cement plan in Canada looked for ways to improve operations in its pulse-jet baghouse, they found a simple solution that didn’t require adding more modules to the baghouse.

Read the following case study to learn how GORE® LOW DRAG Filter Bags make the difference in the production of TiO2 by helping you to reduce the need for offline cleaning while improving your production efficiency at the same time.

GORE LOW DRAG Filters Bags offer carbon black producers the best solution for high-performance, cost-effective product collection. An innovative, proprietary ePTFE membrane, robust design and construction methods, and our expertise in application support and system optimization ensure high productivity and product quality while maintaining low cost of ownership.

Due to the need for longer life-time of pulse jet filter bags in jet mill baghouses, a leading talcum producer installed three different filter bags. Read the full case history to learn more about the added value of GORE LOW DRAG Filter Bags.

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.

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.

A multi-national TiO₂ producer had installed a set of standard Aramid bags. Shortly after their installation, the baghouse experienced an ongoing steady increase in pressure drop (dP).

As a result, the service life of these bags was short: just one year. These bags also suffered from problematic intermittent emissions. Learn how Gore helped solve the issues.

A carbon black manufacturer faced a need to maintain filtration emissions to the lowest level possible to ensure regulation compliance and increase energy production  efficiency.
