Every
utility that’s been faced with changing out filter bags in the last three
years has considered membrane as an option for the reasons stated above. Approximately half of the utility filter
bag purchases in the last three years have actually been membrane. |

The
installation of scrubbing technologies such as SCR or SNCR have been a major
contributing factor for the purchase of BHA-Tex filter bags because of the
formation of ABS (Ammonium Bi-Sulphite) created by the ammonia slip. |

BHA-Tex
also holds up and recovers much better following a boiler tube leak. The pore structure of the membrane does not
allow water to pass through it and the non-stick nature of membrane makes it
much easier to shed the agglomerated dust cake that can build up on the
collection surface of filter bags. |
