Particle Collection Mechanisms in a Fabric Filter Fabric filters take advantage of the fact that particles are larger than gas molecules.Therefore, when dirty gas is filtered through a filter, the particles are captured on the filterwhile the clean gas escapes. Fabric filters operate through a combination of mechanical particle capturemechanisms/principles. These mechanisms include; straining, impaction, […]

In pneumatic conveying systems handling fine or dusty material, the method of filtration thathas become almost universally adopted is a bag type fabric filter. These filters are commonlycalled baghouses. Most baghouses use long, cylindrical bags (or tubes) made of woven orfelted fabric as a filter medium. Dust laden gas or air enters the baghouse through
