Abstract:
Dust cleaning systems are mandatory for use almost in any manufacturing process. Their market size is expected at US$10.77 billion by 2030 growing from US$7.28 billion in 2022. Removing dust particles is the main purpose of these systems and they make an invaluable contribution to environmental safety. However, while cleaning the air from solid particles, industrial pulse-jet baghouse collectors have an additional impact on the environment that usually is not considered. An analysis of energy consumption at the manufacturing and operation stages of the baghouse dust collectors allows for the evaluation of CO2 emissions. The analysis shows that, given the current state of affairs in the industry, by 2030 manufacturing and operation of baghouse dust collectors over the world will emit 70+ million tons of carbon dioxide additionally to the levels of 2021. To reduce the CO2-related environmental impact of industrial pulse-jet baghouse collectors, among all scientific and technical measures, it is recommended to simply scale up the dust collection system, which involves replacing several low-capacity collectors with one general-capacity collector within one industrial enterprise. This allows for a reduction in energy consumption at the collector manufacturing stage from 3 to 10 times and also ensures a significant reduction in operation energy consumption of the dust collector during its service life.
