"A difficult project, implemented in a complex environment, requiring perfect logistic and systematic organization and working in stages. Due to the type of construction of the overhauled facility navigating around the object was difficult. It was necessary to pay special attention to health & safety of all people working on the task."
Challenge
- overhaul of flue gas desulfurization filter no. 3
- safe work at heights of up to 35 m
- particularly demanding working conditions (strongly caustic, polluted environment)
- complicated housing and construction of the filter
Solution
- project and installation of a pulsating, self-cleaning filter with vertical bags
Result
- reduction of dust emission to the atmosphere by 20,000 kg/year, reduction of dust in flue gas below 50 mg/Nmᶾ
- designed system does not require service during normal operation and operated automatically, regardless of the temperature of the flue gas behind the boiler
