Flame-Retardant Filter Bags: Protecting Your Dust Collection System in High-Risk Environments

⚠️ Why Do Filter Bags Burn?

In many industrial dust collection systems, filter bags are exposed to spark-prone and high-temperature environments. Without the right filter material, this can result in scorching, melting, or complete bag failure. Common situations include:

• Biomass boilers with unstable fuel combustion
• Woodworking facilities with frequent sparks and resin buildup
• Metalworking & foundries where sparks or embers are common
• Grate-fired furnaces or coal-fired boilers during unstable ignition
• Inadequate spark arresters or sudden fuel changes

These conditions often lead to spot burns, melting holes, or even dust collector fires, causing unplanned shutdowns, safety risks, and increased maintenance costs.

🚨 The Solution: Omela Flame-Retardant Filter Bags

Omela Filtration provides high-performance flame-retardant filter bags specifically designed for demanding combustion environments. These bags are made from inherently flame-resistant fibers such as PPS or Aramid, and can be optionally treated with flame-retardant coatings for enhanced safety.

🛡️ Key Benefits:

• 🧯 Flame resistance: Delays ignition and self-extinguishes after spark exposure
• 🔥 High-temperature endurance: Operates steadily at 180–260°C
• 💨 Efficient dust collection: Maintains filtration efficiency while enhancing safety
• ⏳ Extended lifespan: Reduced burn-through damage lowers replacement frequency

🌿 Biomass Boiler Application Case

In a biomass power plant project, the customer previously experienced frequent bag failures due to inconsistent fuel and hot particle ignition. After switching to Omela’s flame-retardant PPS filter bags, they reported:

• ✅ 50% longer bag life
• ✅ No bag fires or scorches for over 2 years
• ✅ Stable emission levels under 10 mg/Nm³
• ✅ Lower maintenance frequency
