System design, installation and maintenance
- Cost-effective design, construction and installation of modular hot gas filter pods
- Contract servicing - benefit from Glosfume expertise even if we didn't install your system
- Technical Support - keeping business critical filtration systems running
- Custom-built high temperature ceramic filters - cost-effective solutions for your special needs
- Dry scrubbing invector systems - for thorough removal of SOx, HCl and dioxins
- Innovative system design allows on-line maintenance and element replacement
- Fewer moving parts give longer service life and lower whole life costs.
Outperforming traditional bag filters and electrostatic precipitators
Glosfume's hot gas filtration systems control emissions from incinerators, furnaces and other processes requiring hot gas cleaning - at temperatures up to 600 °C with flows of up to 150,000 Am3/hr. At lower temperatures too, customers respect the way our high temperature ceramic air filters regularly outperform traditional bag filters and electrostatic precipitators. As usual, the little details give you the reliability and cost-effective high temperature air filtration you expect:
- High temperature filtration prevents de novo synthesis of dioxins.
- Glosfume filter systems don't need dilution air, cyclones, spark arrestment or other complicated systems - you enjoy simpler operation and lower power consumption.
- Compact modular pod design saves space and lowers installation costs.
- Multi-cell filter heads prevent costly cross contamination.
- Proprietary reverse pulse cleaning gives efficient cleaning and lower compressed air demand.
- Independent CFD modelling gives your installation higher efficency when dry scrubbing.
In the UK and around the world, hundreds of discerning customers like you already enjoy reliable, cost-effective, environmentally friendly high temperature hot gas filtration.
Design and manufacture of high temperature ceramic air filters
As a specialist in the design, installation and maintenance of hot gas filtration systems, Glosfume's experience with hundreds of thousands of third-party vacuum formed high temperature ceramic air filters, led to the realisation that these products were incapable of meeting our demanding requirements.
Five years ago, Glosfume started to design and manufacture its own high temperature ceramic and mineral filters under the Metcem brand - and soon became a world leader in this specialised field. Today, our high temperature ceramic air filter elements are stronger than any others currently available - they actually get stronger when subjected to temperature, giving you higher performance and a longer service life.
Complete control over filtration and filter elements
Glosfume is the only company in the world that currently has complete control over both the hot gas filtration equipment and the high temperature ceramic air filter elements that it uses - the benefits to you, in terms of quality, cost-effectiveness and integration with filtration systems, are enormous.
