FILTER MEMBRANE

This company recently announced the global availability of its Hybrid Membrane Technology (HMT) fiber in air filtration bag applications for industrial and commercial manufacturing.

According to the company, these fibers capture up to 10 to 15 times more dust and particulates in the air compared to incumbents, providing a cleaner environment for workers and consumers inside and outside manufacturing facilities. These dust collection bags are used with exit air to capture particles so they are not emitted to the environment an increasingly important need as more countries enact regulations for cleaner air. The incumbent polyester felt bags are commonly used at any production facility that generates particulates and dust from wood, cement, asphalt, paint, minerals, and powders, among others. HMT fiber bags provide air flow with an improved cycle time and better capture of particulates. Initial data, based on industry testing standards, shows that HMT technology provides energy savings by reducing down time and providing more consistent pressure levels. Based on nanofiber science, the fibers use a proprietary spinning process that produces continuous filaments with diameters between 200 and 600 nanometers. DuPont, (+1) 800-448-9835
