Application of Industrial Filter Cloth and Filter Mesh in Flue Gas Desulfurization Gypsum Dewatering in Thermal Power Plants
—— Practical Observations Based on Horizontal Vacuum Belt Filter
In thermal power plant flue gas desulfurization ( FGD ， Flue Gas Desulfurization ) systems, gypsum dewatering is a crucial step. The treatment effect of desulfurization gypsum is not only related to environmental emission indicators but also directly affects the comprehensive utilization rate of gypsum resources. In order to achieve efficient, stable, and continuous dewatering, more and more thermal power plants choose to use ** horizontal vacuum belt filter ( HVBF ) ** as the core equipment. In the entire filtration system, industrial filter cloth and filter mesh performance becomes a key factor in determining the final dewatering efficiency and system reliability.
Characteristics of Desulfurization Gypsum and Dewatering Challenges
Desulfurization gypsum is usually produced by limestone wet flue gas desulfurization process, and its main component is calcium sulfate dihydrate ( CaSO ₄ · 2H ₂ O ), containing a certain proportion of fine impurities. The gypsum particles are relatively fine, and a large amount of free water is easily entrained during sedimentation, resulting in an initial water content of usually 40%-50% . If the dewatering is insufficient, the gypsum is not only difficult to transport and store, but also affects its subsequent reuse as a building material.
Therefore, in the gypsum dewatering process, the equipment needs to have a strong continuous dewatering capability, and the filtering medium (filter cloth, filter mesh) is required to meet high standards in solid-liquid separation effect, anti-blocking performance, and durability.
Synergistic Work of Horizontal Vacuum Belt Filter and Filter Cloth
Horizontal vacuum belt filters, with their continuous feeding, continuous dewatering, and continuous discharging characteristics, are very suitable for processing medium-fine particle slurries such as desulfurization gypsum. During equipment operation, the filter cloth, under the action of the vacuum system, becomes the carrier of the entire solid-liquid separation process. Filter cake formation, dewatering effect, and stripping efficiency are closely related to the performance of the filter cloth.
A suitable filter cloth in the desulfurization gypsum dewatering of thermal power plants usually needs to have the following characteristics:
- Excellent balance between filtration accuracy and permeability : It can effectively retain gypsum particles while ensuring that the liquid passes quickly, improving the efficiency of vacuum dewatering.
- High strength and wear resistance : Adapts to long-term stretching and friction of the equipment, reducing the risk of breakage and wear.
- Good filter cake release performance : The gypsum filter cake can smoothly detach from the surface of the filter cloth, avoiding accumulation and improving operational stability.
- Excellent chemical resistance : Resisting the corrosion of low-concentration acidic environments that may exist in the desulfurization process, extending the service life of the filter cloth.
In addition, in order to adapt to different operating conditions, some filter cloths also need to be surface-treated or specially designed according to the needs of use, such as anti-adhesion coatings, single-filament / multi-filament composite weaving structures, etc.
Value Reflection of Industrial Filter Cloth and Filter Mesh in Practical Applications
In many large-scale thermal power plant flue gas desulfurization projects in China, the industrially optimized and applied filter cloths have shown significant advantages on horizontal vacuum belt filters:
- Effective reduction of filter cake moisture content ，usually controlling the gypsum moisture content within 10%-12% ;
- Stable equipment load and high continuous operation ，effectively reducing the number of shutdowns for cleaning;
- Extended filter cloth replacement cycle ，lower maintenance costs, and better overall system economy;
- Improved gypsum quality ，facilitating subsequent resource utilization as cement retarders, gypsum board raw materials, etc.
Practical cases show that the correct selection and reasonable maintenance of high-quality filter cloths can improve the efficiency of the entire flue gas desulfurization gypsum dewatering production line by 10%-15% ，achieving good results in both environmental indicators and economic benefits.
Summary
In thermal power plant flue gas desulfurization systems, the application of industrial filter cloths and filter meshes is not only part of the equipment matching but also an important factor that directly affects the system's operating efficiency and the level of comprehensive resource utilization. With " dual carbon ” goals and increasingly stringent environmental protection standards in the thermal power industry, future requirements for desulfurization gypsum dewatering will be higher, and the test of filter cloth performance will be even more stringent.
From current practical experience, continuously optimizing the technical performance of industrial filter cloths and filter meshes and deeply cooperating with equipment manufacturing and system design will be one of the important directions for thermal power plants to achieve green and sustainable development.
