A pulse-jet bag filtration unit is being proposed to be installed to clean an air stream

containing particulate pollutants. Design and operating data as well as the fabric information

are given below.

Volumetric flow rate of the polluted air stream = 10,000 cfm (at 60oF, 1 atm)

Operating temperature = 250oF

Operating pressure = 1 atm

Concentration of pollutants = 4 gr/ft3

Gas-to-cloth ratio (G/C) = 2.5 cfm/ft2 cloth (at operating condition)

(G/C = gas volumetric flow rate per unit area of filter cloth)

Collection efficiency = at least 99%
