Three types of sludges including printing paper, newsprint and tissue paper were prepared at 5% concentration for filtration-expression operations. Filtration-expression characteristics of sludge were measured in different pressure and wastepaper powder dosage. Specific filtration resistance and porosity were calculated with theoretical formula. Higher pressure increased the progresses of filtration and expression while it decreased porosity. The addition of 5% wastepaper powder more accelerated the progresses of filtration and expression than that of 10% wastepaper powder. The lowest porosity value was also measured at 5% dosage of wastepaper powder. The decrease of porosity implied the decrease of moisture content in cake. The results indicated that dewatering of sludge was efficient in high pressure and 5% dosage of wastepaper powder.

Predictions of diesel particulate filtration are typically made by modeling of a particle collection, and providing particle trapping levels in terms of a pressure drop. In the present study, a series of single channel diesel particulate filter (DPF) experiments are conducted, the pressure traces are inversely analyzed and essential filtration parameters are deducted for model closure. A DPF filtration model is formulated with a non-linear description of soot cake regression. Dependence of soot cake porosity, packing density, permeability, and soot density in filter walls on convective-diffusive particle transportation is examined. Sensitivity analysis was conducted on model parameters, relevant to the mode of transition. Soot cake porosity and soot packing density show low degrees of dispersion with respect to the Peclet number and have asymptotes at 0.97 and $70\;kg/m^3$, respectively, at high Peclet number. Soot density in the filter wall, which is inversely proportional to filter wall Peclet number, controls the filtration mode transition but exerts no influence on termination pressure drop. The percolation constant greatly alters the extent of pressure drop, but is insensitive to volumetric flow rate or temperature of exhaust gas at fixed operation mode.

A study is to predict the effective pulsing distance following to the pulsing pressure, nozzle diameter, filtration velocity using numercial analysis techniques and use it as an efficient operation condition and economic data for on-line type pulse air jet bag filter. Filtration area 6 m² condition, calculate filter resistance coefficient for simulation through the primary experiments using coke dust. For CFD simulation, analysis pulsing characteristics about nozzle diameter, filtration velocity and pulsing pressure. The maximum pulsing length of on-line type pulse air jet bag filter, in 10mm nozzle, filtration velocity 1.5m/min and pulsing pressure 5 bar conditions, is 2,285 mm, maximum length is 76.2% of the total filter bag, which is sufficient to pulsing. In 12mm nozzle, pulsing pressure 5 bar and filtration area 1.22 m² conditions, the maximum pulsing length of on-line type pulse air jet bag filter is 1,744~2,952 mm, and the maximum length is 2,952 mm indicates pulsing air can be reached to the bottom of filter bag. When the nozzle diameter is increased 8mm to 10mm, maximum pulsing length is extended 40~47%, and increased 10mm to 12 mm, maximum pulsing length is extended 10~17%. For effective pulsing, over the 5bar of pulsing pressure and larger than 10 mm of nozzle diameter are required.

The number of vehicles applied diesel engine are rapidly rising for fuel economy. Accompanying this trend, application of an after-treatment system is strictly required as a result of reinforced emission regulation. The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system is considered as the most efficiency method to reduce particulate matter (PM) by car makers but also in retrofit market. In recently, various kinds of partial flow DPF are widely used for proper filtration performance and reducing of pressure drop but it is difficult to define the characteristics of these filters because the filtration mechanism is obscure according to the status of these systems. In this paper we investigated the characteristics of cell open type DPF according to the status of filter especially, PM loading. The PM loading mass in the p-DPF are predicted from increase of differential pressure of DPF and the trend of filtration efficiency so that we can measure filtration efficiency and Balance Point Temperature (BPT) of this p-DPF according to PM loading.

A silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic filter is an effective component for hot flue gas cleaning because of its high collection efficiency, high thermal shock resistance, and excellent mechanical strength. The effect of molding pressure in the production of SiC granular ceramic filters, on the mechanical strength and filtration performance, was investigated in this work. It was found that the ceramic filters produced at molding pressures less than 20 MPa have low mechanical strength and that this result was caused by weak physical interaction among the ceramic powders due to defects and cracks. On the other hand, the filter quality factor(q_F), which represents filtration performance of filter media, decreased with increasing the molding pressure due to the drastic increase in pressure drop. Ceramic filter performance factor(q_FM), which is the manipulation of maximum mechanical strength and q_F, was introduced to consider both mechanical strength and filtration performance in this study. As a result, molding pressure of 30 MPa was desirable to produce a SiC granular ceramic filter based on q_FM.

Over the past years, many research works have been carried out to investigate the factors which govern the performance of diesel engines. The air pollutant emissions from the diesel engines are still significant concerns environmentally in many countries. In the present study, a novel smoke filtration system of diesel engine is proposed. This novel system is composed of filtering elements and vacuum pump driven by exhaust gases emitted from engine cylinders for capturing smoke. In order to verify the excellency of the novel filtration system, the differential pressure across the filtration system is investigated experimentally comparing with other systems which are used commercially in diesel vehicles. As a result it is founded that the differential pressure of the novel system is the smallest among them.

In this study, two kinds of industrial filter bags were tested for their filtration performance to apply the existing bag filter systems. Experimental variables were examined for pressure drop, cleaning interval, residual pressure drop, cleaning efficiency, fractional grade efficiency, total collection efficiency according to the filter bag structure. According to these results, the filter bags tested in this study demonstrated good performance in dust collection. This was also true for the double surface filter bag. The lifetime was longer than the round type filter bag because the filtration area was more than 1.6 times wider and the filter quality factor was much higher. Therefore, double surface filter bags are suggested to be used in order to increase filtration performance of the bag filter systems.

Diesel particulate filter is being recognized that it is the most effective technologies to reduce particulate matter. In this study, to determine the characteristics of the cell-open-type pDPF, we employed p-DPF to exhaust gas tunnel of diesel engine and surveyed filtration efficiency and BPT on the basis of PM which is exhausted from engine. In this paper the soot loading mass in DPF can be predicted from increase of differential pressure of DPF so that we can measure filtration efficiency and Balance Point Temperature (BPT) by soot loading mass. The result of the research showed that the filtration efficiency is 65% in ESC mode with 0.7mm hole diameter. For the results of the characteristics of filtration efficiency and BPT according to mass_exh, we found that if mass_exh increases, filtration efficiency increases and BPT decreases.

Rehabilitation work is required to increase well productivity, which decreases with the elapsed time of pumping owing to the clogging of the water well. Clogging causes not only a reduction in the well productivity but also a deterioration of the water quality. For unclogging and rehabilitating wells, several techniques are used such as brushing, air surging, surge blocks, and gas impulse. In this study, the high-pressure air impulse technique, which effectively and economically rehabilitates wells, was applied to a riverbank filtration site in Korea for the same objective. At most of the wells, the hydraulic parameters (transmissivity, storage coefficient, and specific capacity) were increased by the application of the high-pressure air impulse technique. The well loss change values also indicate an increase in the hydraulic parameters by the air impulse implementation. Thus, the high-pressure air impulse technique can be efficiently and economically applied to water and riverbank filtration wells for rehabilitating the decreased productivity.

The drainage was used to determine the specific filtration resistance for wood and non-wood fibers. The drainage rate is also affected by factors that can be changed on consistency, pressure drop across the mat, basis weight, additives, and viscosity. Recent development of theoretical studies in flow through porous media and filtration operation emphasize the urgent need for more accurate data for porosity and specific filtration resistance. This study was investigated to determine specific filtration resistance of Hw, Sw-BKP and Kenaf fiber by filtration experimental. Freeness levels selected were 150,250,and $350m\ell$ CSF. The average specific filtration resistance decreased as freeness increased and resistance of Sw-BKP was greater than that of Hw-BKP. The filtrate and porosity increased and specific filtration resistance decreased as particle size of fiber increased.
