High temperature gas filters are used in a wide range of industries. Gas filters remove solids from the filtered gases. In gas filtration applications that involve high temperatures, Ceramic Filters are widely used as these filters can operate at temperatures up to 1000°C. In fact, the practical temperature limit of the filters is very often determined by the material type used to support the filter elements. Ceramic filters can withstand extreme thermal shocks, are unaffected by incandescent particles and sparks and are also resistant to acidic gases.
These filters are used in industries that involve incineration of materials, burnout furnaces in lost wax foundries, plasma melting of catalysts for precious metal recovery, production of nanomaterials, gasification of waste wood, pyrolysis of waste plastics and many other applications. Because of the hazardous nature of the industries requiring high temperature gas filtration systems, it is recommended that the filter elements used should be procured only from highly reputed filter manufacturers.
