Case Study: Australian Biomass Power Plant Implementation
A recent installation at a 50MW biomass power plant in Queensland demonstrates the effectiveness of ZTW Tech's technology. The facility previously struggled with maintaining emission compliance due to variable fuel quality and high alkali content in the biomass feedstock.
| Parameter | Before Installation | After Installation | Reduction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Particulate Matter | 45 mg/Nm³ | 3 mg/Nm³ | 93% |
| NOx Emissions | 280 mg/Nm³ | 35 mg/Nm³ | 87% |
| SO2 Emissions | 180 mg/Nm³ | 15 mg/Nm³ | 92% |
| Operating Cost | High | Reduced by 40% | Significant |

Comparative Analysis: Ceramic vs Traditional Filtration
When evaluating ceramic filters for biomass energy against conventional technologies, the advantages become clear:
Baghouse Filters
Traditional baghouse systems struggle with high-temperature applications and are susceptible to chemical degradation. ZTW Tech's ceramic filters operate effectively at temperatures where baghouse materials would fail.
Electrostatic Precipitators
While effective for particulate removal, ESP systems cannot handle multiple pollutants simultaneously and require significant space. ZTW Tech's integrated approach provides comprehensive emission control in a compact footprint.
SCR/SNCR Systems
Standalone SCR systems require separate filtration stages and additional reagent consumption. Our integrated ceramic catalyst filters combine filtration and NOx reduction in a single step.
