An activated carbon filter is installed at the primary inlet of the reciprocating compressor
Thread Content
To reduce the content of coal dust, tar, and other substances in the gas entering the first stage of a reciprocating compressor, can an activated carbon filter be installed before the first-stage inlet? What are the precautions and risks?
First of all, both coal powder and tar are not allowed to enter the compressor cylinder. A commonly used measure is to install filters (filter screens) and the like. If activated carbon is added, it will quickly become \"poisoned\" and lose its effectiveness. Overall, using a filter allows for timely cleaning. If there is carbon activation poisoning or exposure to tar, one has to consider the financial implications. For reference.
1. The pressure stability is fine with the existing treatment facilities; however, the pressure of the reciprocating compressor is unstable, so it needs to be moved further upstream and various buffering measures need to be considered. 2. Appropriate treatment facilities should also be chosen; activated carbon can easily get clogged by dust and liquids, so only pure gases can be used. Other filtration systems are required for oil and dust removal, and the appropriate system depends on the specific conditions.

Our company has just upgraded several activated carbon filters to a membrane separation system, and the results are very good. You can contact us at 17791780689 to discuss this further
