In this post, Ivan Sretenovic, Director of Operations and Sales for ProcessBarron Canada, explains how ProcessBarron’s expertise in various industrial processes and the resulting flue gas particulate properties helps us customize solutions to your industry. Air pollution control solutions (APC) vary by industry, and each industry faces different challenges because… Read More
The Importance of Efficient Mechanical Dust Collectors
Over the last several decades, mechanical dust collectors have evolved from air pollution control devices into a reliable, low-maintenance means of erosion protection for downstream system equipment. They are an increasingly important part of your steel mill’s air handling systems. Read More
Dust Collectors FAQ: Answering Your Questions
Dust collectors are vital parts of plants in the cement & lime, biomass, power, pulp & paper, iron and steel, textile, and mining industries. Without them, dust will accumulate and cause serious problems with your plant’s ID Fan equipment and the final product (if applicable). Mechanical dust collectors in and… Read More
How Mechanical Dust Collectors Help to Preserve Equipment
While mechanical dust collectors have a long history of use alongside biomass-fired boilers, their modern function has changed. Their primary function today is integration into air handling systems, where they function as a pre-cleaner to remove particles from flue gas. This helps to extend the life of pollution control equipment… Read More
3 Ways Multiclone Dust Collectors Boost Efficiency
Many plant managers often find themselves trying to keep emissions in check without cutting back on production, but the two aren’t always possible at the same time. Fortunately, with a multiclone dust collector, decreasing particulate emissions and maximizing production can be done simultaneously — saving plant managers money and keeping… Read More
How Modern Industrial Dust Collectors Change the Game
For industrial facilities, dust is the enemy. Dust can foul up a production process and contribute to higher emissions, higher operational costs, and a less streamlined process. Left unchecked, an abundance of dust can wreak havoc on systems and cause degradation. The consequences of excess dust are the reason industrial… Read More
Right-Sizing Mechanical Dust Collector Inlet Tubes
During the 60-plus years they have been in use, the inlet tube diameter used in mechanical dust collectors has undergone some dramatic shifts. These changes — from the original 6-inch to the 9-inch and 24-inch sizes used today — have been motivated by the changing role dust collectors have come… Read More
Preserve Your Equipment with Mechanical Dust Collectors
Mechanical dust collectors have been used with biomass-fired boilers for more than 60 years. Today, they are primarily integrated into air handling systems as a “precleaner” that removes ash and sand particles from flue gas, thereby extending the operational life of induced draft (ID) fans and pollution control equipment. A… Read More
