This is the first 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. 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. The authors explain baghouse design and operation, and include discussions of utility boiler operation, fly ash characterization, and filtration mechanisms. 19 references.
