METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CLEANING FLUE GASES

摘要

A method of cleaning hot flue or process gases utilizing a barrier filter module formed of a monolithic ceramic filter support structure coated with a thin porous ceramic layer having a pore size of about 0.04 to 0.5 microns, and a catalyst module formed of a support structure coated with catalyst is provided. The steps are: passing the gas through the barrier filter module, in contact with the thin porous ceramic layer with pore size of about 0.04 - 0.5 microns, and then passing the gas through the catalyst module so that there is a catalytic reaction with the gas.
