A kind of sintered metal candle filter has been developed to enable the performance testing for use in hot coal gas clean-up. The intention of this paper is to provide a brief overview of development of the filter, and to provide a summary of experimental results that have been gained in testing at a pilot gasifier. Two different types of stainless steel were chosen as the material to build the filter. The operational temperature range is 460--650 C. The typical inlet dust concentration is 1.0--37.71g/Nm{sup 3}. Results show the average collection efficiency is higher than 99%, the outlet dust concentration is lower than 10mg/Nm{sup 3}, which reaches the requirement of gas turbines in IGCC. The pressure drop is about 8,300--17,400Pa, and the back blowing of the filter proves to be very good. At present only single-tube testing was conducted. The multi-tube testing facility will be established, and the authors will perform the tests under the condition of high pressure to obtain more experience for design and operation.
