Before selecting the filter cloth, the following preparations should be made:
1. The filtration requirement is to recover the solid and discard the liquid, and also recover the liquid and discard the solid, or both or both; Liquid content of filter cake; Clarity of filtrate; Whether the wastes need to be disposed.
2. Characteristics of solid particles in the slurry: particle size, particle size dispersion range, compressibility of solid particles, particle shape and true density of solid.
3. Intrinsic viscosity, density, acid reducibility, oxidation-reduction, solubility to organic matter and temperature of the liquid in the slurry.
4. Intrinsic viscosity, density, concentration (ratio of solid and liquid) and particle dispersion of slurry.
5. Type of filter: confirm the type of filter according to the production capacity, investment, use area and other specific conditions.
Understand when singeing, calendaring, water and oil repellent treatment, anti-static construction, PTFE coating, or membrane may be reviewed for dust filter bags.
Review common causes of rising baghouse pressure drop, including filter bag blinding, cleaning issues, moisture, dust loading, cage fit, airflow, and system checks.
See how moisture, condensation, acid gases, oxygen, HF, and acid dew point can affect dust filter bag material review before selection.
Prepare dust collector filter bag RFQ details for material review, including temperature, gas chemistry, oxygen, moisture, dust behavior, current bag material, dimensions, quantity, and photos.
