'''Fabric Filters''' or [[Baghouses]] use filtration to separate dust particulates from dusty gases. They are one of the most efficient and cost effective types of [[Dust Collecting Filters]] available and can achieve a collection efficiency of more than 99% for very fine particulates. | |||
Dust-laden gases enter the baghouse and pass through fabric bags that act as filters. The bags can be of woven or felted cotton, synthetic, or glass-fiber material in either a tube or envelope shape. | Dust-laden gases enter the baghouse and pass through fabric bags that act as filters.
