Primary Aluminum - Application Note

Challenge: At Iceland’s largest aluminum smelter, located in a pristine glacial fjord, air flow through the stack is 2.8M CFM after being treated by two Gas Treatment Centers (GTC), each consisting of a 12-compartment baghouse with a total of 23,020 individual filters. The challenge for this plant was to keep particulate emissions as low as possible while minimizing downtime and expenses to maintain thebaghouses.
