The second in a series of papers discussing the experience of electric utilities in applying baghouse technology for the collection of particulate matter at coal-fired electric power generating plants is presented. The series presents new data obtained in research sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) on reverse-gas and shake/deflate cleaned baghouses, and specifically addresses a number of unresolved issues in the design and operation of these units. This paper describes the history of baghouse technology in the United States, the evolution of the technology within the electric utility industry, and past and present research and development to build a data base for the technology in utility settings.
