FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DONALDSON MEMBRANES TALKS TETRATEX® IN EGYPT
at the 15th Arab-International Cement Conference and Exhibition, CICC, Cairo, 18th – 20th November 2008
Donaldson Membranes Industrial Filtration Market Manager, Callum Baxendale will talk delegates through the selection of advanced filter media for cement applications at this year’s AUCBM show in Egypt.
Visitors from the cement industry will be able to view the Company’s range of Tetratex ePTFE membrane products for Industrial Filtration, at Stand 93 throughout the 3-day event.
There they will meet the Company’s expert team, including Donaldson Advanced Filtration’s new Export Sales Manager Lars Pedersen, who was recently appointed to meet increasing demand for its products in the Middle East, CIS countries, the Baltic States, Greece and Turkey.
Callum’s presentation, entitled: “The Benefits of Tetratex ePTFE Membrane Filter Media,” will outline how Tetratex membranes provide increased bag life, less downtime, reduced emissions, increased productivity and cost reductions.
Callum explained: "Tetratex membrane filter media can be used in various parts of the cement manufacturing process to provide improved airflow and throughput, which in turn can increase production rates, optimise milling and eliminate production bottlenecks.
“After introducing guests to Donaldson the Company, I will talk through the product range, detailing the features and benefits of Tetratex ePTFE membrane filter media in cement dedusting applications, and will be drawing on case studies of successful installations. I will also focus on the principles of filtration, ie. depth v surface filtration, giving an explanation of the differences between conventional depth filtration principles when using non-membrane filter media against those of true surface filtration when Tetratex ePTFE membrane media is employed.”
He added: “Reducing energy consumption and environmental emissions are two of the greatest challenges facing the cement industry today. Donaldson Membranes can help to overcome these challenges by providing filter media for dedusting of kilns, raw mills, coal mills, alkali bypass systems, clinker coolers and finish mills.”
As a long-serving supplier to the cement market and with a wealth of knowledge and expertise in providing filtration solutions spanning 85 years, Donaldson has developed Tetratex ePTFE membrane products in close co-operation with its customers in order to meet the most exacting specifications.
