| Abstract: | This paper deals with the basic considerations of the specifications, detail design, and construction of the baghouse system for the 10-unit Shawnee Steam Plant. Special attention is given to a unique preheating and reheating system for each baghouse prior to boiler startup or for cycling operation, criteria for varying number of compartments online against flow (ACFM) to minimize dewpoint consideration, criteria of air-to-cloth ratio as well as filter material and coating, selection of materials, and construction of a unique raft foundation system—all within a total construction period of 42 months. |
