Glosfume Hot Gas Filter elements were developed and commercialized in 2003. Developed using high temperature fibres and are designed to work in the same way as a traditional fabric filter but with much higher temperature capability and resistance to sparks. Since 2003, the benefits of the product mean that they have been used in a variety of applications from metal and mining to product recovery to energy generation applications such as renewable energy and energy-from-waste.
Key features of Glosfume mineral hot gas elements include:
- A high temperature threshold of up to 750⁰C
- Compatibility with sorbents
- Non-combustibility
- Corrosion resistance.
Designing pollution control equipment around Glosfume hot gas filtration media saves CAPEX and OPEX and reduces the footprint of the installation while providing extended service life and energy savings.
