Abstract
The development of technologies for gas cleaning at high temperatures has been extraordinarily rapid following the pioneering work of the UK/US/German collaborative project at the Grimethorpe pressurised fluidised bed combustion facility in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The long-term needs of the power generators may have driven this early development, but the focus has now shifted to the chemical and process industries. Environmental legislation now being rapidly implemented in most industrialised countries means that their needs are anything but long term! Furthermore, their filtration requirements are at least as challenging as the high-pressure, high-temperature filtration problems which stimulated the early development of the technology.
