Flagship project in Africa
Introduction:
In 2018, we have successfully installed and commissioned Pulse Jet Bag Filter based on Optiwave Pulse Cleaning Technology (OWPC) for a Cement plant located in Atbara City, Sudan. The bag filter has been supplied with 8m long bags. The bag filters installed has been for Raw mill/Kiln application in the cement industry. The cement plant has a capacity of 2 million tons annum (MTPA).Since the commissioning of the bag filter, the system has been running successfully and meeting the required emission norms.
