an air pollution abatement device that traps particulates (dust) by forcing gas streams through large permeable bags usually made of glass fibers
A facility at a smelter used to capture dust from smelting and refining operations. The dust is recycled back into the smelting process.
a gigantic industrial vacuum cleaner
an air pollution abatement device used to trap particulate by filtering gas streams through large fabric bags
a piece of equipment within an air filtration system containing fabric filter bags that remove particles from an industrial dust-producing environment
This term is often used interchangeably with the term "filtration systems." However, it is applicable only to pulse jet, cartridge, reverse air, and shaker-type filtration systems. The term "baghouse" does not have any clear meaning for HEPA filtration systems.
a combustion plant emission control device that consists of an array of fabric filters through which flue gases pass in an incinerator flue. Particles are trapped and thus prevented from passing into the atmosphere.
The structure housing the bags of tubular or envelope-shaped fabric filter, used for the high-efficiency collection of solid particulate (that is, dust and fumes) from a contaminated air stream or gas stream.
A woven or felted fabric bag-like device that lets gas through but removes suspended particles.
An enclosed structure that uses filter bags to help remove sulfur dioxide from flue gas by collecting spray dryer absorber products. The filters also remove fly ash. Essentially, a baghouse works like a vacuum cleaner.
An air pollution control device used to filter particulates from waste combustion gases; a chamber containing a bag filter.
Post-combustion apparatus that traps particulate waste material.
is equipment that acts like a giant vacuum cleaner and removes particulate or ash from combustion gases at power plants that burn coal.
An air pollution abatement device that traps gas-borne particulates by forcing the gas through filter bags.
