Understanding the benefits & limitations of EPA filtration
Power Generation utilities have extremely varied needs, and that’s especially true for filtration. Plant priorities will vary widely from base load or peakers, new or almost retired plants, costal or desert locations. Technology has evolved greatly in the last 40 years
ISO 29463 — a global standard for HEPA and ULPA filters
HEPA and ULPA filters have been in use around the world for many years. The first HEPA filter was developed in the late 1940s. The original procedures to test these filters were also developed around the same time. Although these original test procedures are still practiced in the U.S.
Tiny particles and the bigger picture
Single-stage nonwoven filter media are no longer sufficient for meeting water separation efficiency requirements in modern fuel tanks and diesel fuel systems. This was one of the key messages to be taken away from the EDANA Filtrex 2014 conference held in Berlin, Germany
Sieves, strainers and reusable filters
Straining and sludge/process dewatering in industry is normally accomplished by a variety of intake water strainers, by sand filters and by filter presses and automatic pressure filters, as well as centrifuges, belt presses and screw presses. General wastewater removal techniques for industrial streams along with specific nuclear plant wastewater treatments and sintered metal filters are also discussed
From production of viscose to fully automatic filtration in the sugar industry
Sometimes it’s worth looking beyond existing, established processes, visible at the example of Lenzing Technik GmbH, an internationally operating engineering company with headquarters in Salzkammergut, Austria.
