Conversion from ESP to Bag Filter: Engineering Steps

An ESP-to-baghouse conversion is planned by assessing existing emission performance, casing/air-path suitability and process-downtime constraints together. Hantech Filter carries out this assessment using field data.

Emission and capacity assessmentExisting-infrastructure suitability analysisPhased commissioning plan

Emission & capacity assessment

The existing ESP's emission performance and capacity need are measured/assessed before the conversion decision.

Body & airway engineering

Suitability of the existing casing, duct and air-handling infrastructure for a baghouse is determined by engineering review.

Step-by-step commissioning

The conversion can be planned in stages to minimize process downtime.

When to evaluate

In which situations the transformation from ESP to baghouse comes to the fore

Tightening emission limits, an ESP falling short on fine dust or high-resistivity material, or a growing capacity need are the typical reasons a conversion comes up.

Reviewing how dust resistivity and dust character affect ESP efficiency

Suitability of the existing casing, duct and air-handling infrastructure for a baghouse

The right expectation

When to transform, when not

A conversion can make senseWorth assessing on lines with tightening emission limits, ESP efficiency dropping from high dust resistivity, or a growing capacity need.

Consider other options firstIf the ESP's performance drop stems from a maintenance/electrode issue, ESP maintenance or overhaul should be assessed before a full conversion.

Frequently asked questions

About the transformation from ESP to baghouse

Does the process need to be stopped during conversion?

Downtime can be reduced with phased planning; the full scope depends on the existing line's layout.

Can the existing body be used?

If the casing and duct dimensions are suitable, they can be partly reused; an engineering review confirms this.

Is there a post-conversion emission guarantee?

The system is designed to the calculated filter area and air-to-cloth ratio; performance is verified after commissioning.
