Flue gas cleaning and cleaning of fabric filters used in cleaning of exhaust air

One of the areas in which the adsorption properties of natural zeolites are used is flue gas cleaning and sulphur compound ecology. Sulphur compounds are formed during the cellulose production process and may escape into the atmosphere, where they are a source of pollution. These are primarily sulphur compounds such as hydrogen sulphide, methyl mercaptan, and sulphur dioxide.

In the process of flue gas cleaning zeolite is effective in solving the following problems

• sorption of heavy metals
• gas dehydration (drying)
• sorption of dioxins and furans
• sorption of acetylene, carbon dioxide, sulfur compounds
• air separation
• ammonia gas sorption
• absorption of moisture caused by fluctuating operating temperatures in incinerators
• protection of the filter fabric from damage when temperatures drop below the dew point of flue gases
• zeolite (clinoptilolite) is suitable as an adsorbent for removing ammonia emissions from the air
• zeolite dust in filter hoses improves the regeneration of fabric filters and protects them
• zeolite is used for the pre-treatment of air before the direct air entering into the filter
• dusting filter hoses leads to improved regeneration of filter fibres and ultimately their protection
• mechanical filter for flue gas cleaning and particulate matter
