Abstract
Gas cleaning temperatures have been increasing ever since heat-resistant fabrics boosted the limit for baghouse filtration to 250°C. More recently, commercial hot gas cleaning products, based largely on ceramics, have trebled this temperature limit, allowing even the hottest flue gases to be filtered without cooling. Technical advances promise to raise temperature limits even further, as new processes that run at well over 1000°C leave the laboratory for the test site.
