Electrodynamic Multi-Chamber Filter Performance Monitor
Electrodynamic Multi-Chamber Filter Performance Monitor

Multi-Compartment Baghouse Performance Monitoring

Reduced operating costs

Application

Waste to Energy Plants operate under strict particulate emission control limits, which typically requires the installation of multi-compartment baghouses. Providing a high degree of filtration efficiency, these filters require regular maintenance for optimum performance. Due to complexities of large multi-compartment filters, finding potential leaks can be a complicated and time-consuming task. The current (European) Emission Limit Value (ELV) is relatively low (10 mg/m3), therefore, the consequences of filter leaks can rapidly result in breaches of the emission limit. If solely reliant on the main stack emission monitor for indication of emission limit excursions, the filter failure event will already be underway. To ensure compliance is retained, the ability to locate which compartment contains the leak is a highly valuable process operation tool.

Process data
Industry Sector: Waste to Energy
Material: Animal Waste (Combustion by product)
Dust Loadings: Less than 10 mg/m3
Installation: 8 Individual Baghouse compartment outlets

Solution

The Leak Locate 320 system is designed to monitor the dust release from each filter compartment and is able to detect leaks as they develop, even down at very low emission concentrations. A sensor is installed in the clean gas output of each filter chamber, so that it can monitor the dust releases in isolation from all others, which enables comparison to be made between each compartment. Using ENVEA’s unique and patented ElectroDynamic® technology, the sensors successfully detect very low level dust releases (eg 1 – 2 mg/m3) and bring the benefit of not requiring air purging as the measurement is unaffected by product build-up on the sensor rod. To provide additional confidence in the measurement, the optional sensor Probe Check assures the integrity of the sensor’s measurement.

The Modbus infrastructure allows for the simple installation of multiple sensors on a single network. Local graphical display of comparative compartment performance is provided via the ProController, together with short term data recording of filter trends which can be used to identify individual filter row degradation (dependant upon filter cleaning mechanisms). Remote observation of dust emissions and filter performance is provided in real time via in-built Ethernet connectivity and use of the DUST TOOLS software.

This solution provides plant maintenance teams with early warning alarms of compartments beginning to release higher levels of dust and enabling the identification of filter degradation down to row level. Knowing where the leaks are developing enables process stoppages to be scheduled and saves time and resources by highlighting where the leaks are developing and which bags need to be changed. By detecting leaks early ensures that the ELV is not breached.

Online flow measurement of fly ash to control process conditions Online mass flow measurement with SolidFlow 2.0
Online flow measurement of fly ash to control process conditions
Online mass flow measurement with SolidFlow 2.0 Fly ash does have the tendency to create blockages in the cone of the hopper and screw feeder. Our customer was looking for a solution to provide information about the quantity of material flow behind the hopper to control the flow condition. Process data Customer: Cement plant Material: Fly ash Installation: After hopper and screw feeder Function: Online information about the quality of flow condition Solution SolidFlow 2.0 is specially designed for mass flow measurement of solids up to 20 t/h in free fall and in pneumatic applications and has an active roping compensation. This allows measurement errors that occur due to roping to be compensated. In the described application SolidFlow 2.0 is used to measure the quantity of fly ash behind the hopper and screw feeder.

Moisture measurement of wood chips for control of the combustion air M-Sens for moisture measurement
Moisture measurement of wood chips for control of the combustion air
M-Sens for moisture measurement In a biomass power plant, the combustion of biomass generates electricity and heat. The operator of a biofuel plant was looking for a solution that would provide him with information on the moisture content of the biomass (wood chips) before transportation into the combustion chamber in order to optimally adjust the combustion air. Process data Customer: Biogas plant Material: Wood chips Moisture range: 20 - 60 % Installation: After the shredding machine Function: Measuring the moisture of wood chips Solution The M-Sens continuously measures the material moisture of all kinds of solids in container outlets, conveyor belts, screw conveyors, mixers and belt dryers. In the described application the M-Sens WR is used. The M-Sens WR is especially used for coarser materials and for higher moisture values. For applications with wood dusts with a lower moisture value the standard M-Sens is used. Typical installation locations are e. g. in a silo outlet or in a screw conveyor. Customer

Material flow monitoring during unloading of silo vehicles Detection of empty state
Material flow monitoring during unloading of silo vehicles
Detection of empty state During the unloading of limestone powder, silo vehicles are pressurised to the required level using compressed air units controlled by the driver and conveyed to the appropriate silo. Prompt detection of the empty state of the silo vehicle was not possible, therefore, product transfer was often finished too early or unnecessarily long, costing time and excessive use of compressed air. The customer’s aim was to automate the unloading of the silo vehicle and to create a reliable signal when reaching the empty state. Process data Customer: Saint-Gobain Weber GmbH Material: Limestone Installation: Discharge pipe for truck loading (DN 100) Function: Automatized detection of the empty state Solution The FlowJam S is a sensor for non-contact monitoring of material flow for “Flow” or “NoFlow”.
