Jet pulsed filters as chemical gas/solid reactors-Experiment and model prediction

Combining the predictive filter model and a model for the chemical reactions in the fixed bed of the filter cake [A. Kavouras, B. Breitschaedel, G. Krammer, A. Garea, J.A. Marques, A. Irabien, SO2 removal in the filter cake of a jet pulsed filter: a combined filter and fixed bed reaction model, Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 41 (2002) 5459-5469], the filter performance as a gas/solid reactor can also be simulated in a predictive way. It is found that the pressure drop across the filter has a weak influence on filter performance as a gas/solid reactor.
