Abstract: A modular portable dusty air cleaner comprises a removable bin, a dirty gas distributor, an aperture plate, a plurality of tubular filters, a roof, a clean-gas chamber, a dust collection chamber, and a pulse-jet assembly. The dirty gas distributor is positioned to distribute dirty gas into the dust collection chamber from a periphery of the plurality of filters. The aperture plate forms at least a partial ceiling for the bin. The plurality of tubular filters hangs into the bin from the apertures of the plate, one filter per aperture. The roof is positioned above the aperture plate. The clean-gas chamber is defined between the plate and the roof. The pulse jet assembly is positioned at least partly in the clean-gas chamber.

Abstract: In a porous filter, dust that has been collected from a gas through a filter group installed in a vessel body onto filter surfaces is removed from the filter surfaces by backwashing in which the supply and stoppage of a high-pressure gas ejected toward porous filter elements are repeated by means of a valve operation. Backwash tanks having upstream backwash valves and downstream backwash valves are installed in backwash pipes through which the high-pressure gas is guided from high-pressure-gas supply equipment to backwash nozzles for ejecting the backwash high-pressure gas toward the filter group to form a backwash high-pressure-medium supply line. The outlet pressure of the high-pressure-gas supply equipment is set to “1/critical pressure ratio” or more times a filter inlet gas pressure so that the flow speed of the high-pressure gas ejected from the backwash nozzle is the speed of sound or higher.

Abstract: A dust-collecting apparatus is described that includes a lift-off door assembly that provides access to the interior of the dust-collecting apparatus while minimizing the adverse effects on the normal operation of the apparatus by maintaining a proper seal between the interior and the exterior of the apparatus.

Abstract: A dust removal method using baghouse filter to process raw syngas from fluidized bed coal gasifier, wherein temperature in the baghouse (300) is maintained at 180° C.-250° C., pressure difference between the gas inlet (130) of the baghouse (300) and the gas outlet (110) of the baghouse (300) is controlled at 1000-5000 Pa, the raw syngas from the fluidized bed coal gasifier enters the gas inlet under the pressure of 0.2-3.0 Mpa.

The present invention also discloses a baghouse dust collector and a dense phase pneumatic conveying apparatus for the method.

Abstract: An adaptable dual direction, differential pressure assembly is disclosed. Solenoid valves release controlled bursts of air into a top of a container. A rate of the controlled bursts of air is partially responsive to a pressure differential between atmospheric pressure and that of compressed air in the reservoir.

The controlled bursts of air are programmed to be substantially automatically responsive to one or more pressure differentials between an inner wall and an outer wall. In one embodiment, air is drawn from the blower through the pleated filter from the inner wall to the outer wall until a desired pressure differential is achieved.

Abstract: A valve and trigger cyclically connect a vacuum and a blower to a filter. The valve box has three openings, the first connectable to the vacuum, the second connectable to the blower and the third connectable to the filter. A gate inside the box, biased by the blower and the vacuum toward closing the first opening, is held against the bias by a trigger outside the box to close the second opening. The external trigger intervally operates to release the interior gate to close the first opening and open the second opening. The blower operates only if the trigger is operating. The gate is released once for approximately 1/12 of a cycle interval during each trigger operating interval. A plurality of valves can be combined in a system with one trigger for cyclically sequentially connecting a plurality of filters to the vacuum and the blower.
