PRIMARY, SECONDARY & PRECIOUS METAL SMELTERS

Primary and secondary smelters of ferrous, non-ferrous, and precious metals operate on very stringent budgets and emissions standards. No matter the metal type or manner of smelting, the EPA/DEQ regulations are very sensitive.
Smelters use a variety of dust collector types; reverse air, shaker, pulse jet, and cartridge styles each with their own unique features and challenges. Not only are the collectors challenged by operational issues, they filtering dust that has very stringent particulate levels:

• Arsenic
• Zinc
• Hydrogen fluorides & sulfides
• Copper

Our onsite presence and application knowledge allows Midwesco Filter to provide proven and demonstrated solutions for maintenance and operations managers who handle dust collectors of processes, such as:

• Smelter/Converter/Reverb Furnaces
• Ball Mills & Crushers
• Welding Stations
• Material Handling & Transfer Point

LEAD BATTERY MANUFACTURERS

Primary and secondary smelters of lead operate on very stringent budgets and strict emission standards. No matter the type of dust collection or application, the EPA/DEQ regulations are very sensitive.

Lead smelters employ a variety of dust collector types: reverse air, shaker, cartridge, as well as pulse jet collectors that load their filters from the top, side or bottom. Not only are these collectors challenged by operational and production issues, but they must filter dust at an exceptionally effective and efficient rate.

Our onsite presence and application knowledge allows Midwesco Filter to provide proven and demonstrated solutions. For maintenance, environmental, and plant managers who handled that delicate balance of lower costs and higher performance on their processes, such as:

• Smelter/Reverb/Converter Furnaces
• Sanitary Systems
• Ball Mills & Crushers
• Oxide Material Handling & Transfer Units
• Plant Vacuum Systems

Common problems solved by our products & services:

• Premature filter failure
• Emissions
• High pressure drop or drag resistance
• Material buildup or blockage in hoppers/silos
• Old and ineffective shaker baghouses
• Corrosion on cages or clean air plenums
