A leading cement plant in the Western U.S. faced frequent filter bag failures—some lasting less than a month—due to extreme operating temperatures up to 550°F. With 3,200 bags across ten compartments, the downtime was constant and costly.
To address this, Albarrie introduced its innovative Meteor™ Spark Resistant Filter Bags. Made from volcanic rock, this basalt filter media offers superior heat resistance, durability, and strength, making it ideal for the extreme conditions of the cement plant.
The results were transformative. The Meteor™ bags extended the filter lifespan from just one month to an impressive eight years in the most challenging compartments. This dramatic increase in durability led to several key benefits:
By implementing Albarrie’s Meteor™ filter bags, the cement facility found a sustainable, long-term solution that not only solved its immediate filtration problems but also delivered significant financial and operational advantages.
