Activated carbon filter
Thread Content
For the activated carbon filter at the inlet of the transformation system, is it better to have flow from top to bottom or from bottom to top? Why?
Generally, it is designed with material entering from the top and exiting from the bottom, mainly to facilitate hot washing and prevent the activated carbon from being blown away
Our system doesn’t have an activated carbon filter – what’s the use of an activated carbon filter anyway? Is it used in the synthesis of ammonia from coal?
4#shfuchenko Haiyou, the function of the activated carbon filter is the same as that of the mesh oil separator – both are used to separate oil from water.
Decarbonization, to be used after desulfurization? The gas pressure is not low; let it flow in from above and out from below
It’s good to have flow from above and below, to prevent loss of activated carbon.
Our process flow is from top to bottom.
Generally speaking, in terms of adsorption efficiency, both top-in-bottom-out and bottom-in-top-out flow patterns work. However, to prevent the dust from degreasing agents from clogging subsequent equipment, it is more appropriate to use an upper-inlet and lower-outlet design.
All the imported filters in our three sets of conversion systems use an upper-inlet/lower-outlet flow pattern; the upper part of the filters is equipped with a water spraying device that allows for regular cleaning of oil residues during normal production； Additionally, the upward and downward flow also prevents the activated carbon from being carried away by the gas.
Our process flow is from top to bottom.
