An apparatus for collecting ash from flue gases, the apparatus (10) comprising at least a probe (12) suitable for collecting flue gas containing ash and other particles; a filter (18, 58) configured to filter the flue gas flowing through the filter and to separate ash and other particles from the flue gas; a first channel (22) configured to convey flue gas from the probe (12) to the filter (18, 58); a suction device (20) configured to suck flue gas through said filter (18, 58); a second channel (24) configured to convey flue gas from the filter to the suction device. The apparatus comprises a connection (34) for blowing compressed gas to the apparatus, wherein said connection is placed in such a way that the blown gas can be conveyed through the filter (58). The apparatus further comprises a dissolving vessel (42), to which ash and other particles removed from the filter (18, 58) by means of said gas blow can be conveyed for sampling. A method for collecting ash from flue gases utilizes the above described apparatus. |
