5 Reasons for ESP conversions & retrofits Stricter emission regulation by the authorities Use of secondary fuels Reduction of operation costs 6

6 Advantages of Intensiv-Filter bag filters (versus ESP s) Lower and constant clean gas dust emissions for the use of secondary fuels as kiln fuel to meet strict authority regulations Performance is independent on changing parameters and operating modes (e.g. compound & direct mode) Precipitation is not pending on moisture and chemistry of the gas & dust No CO trips for kiln dedusting applications Online Maintenance possibilities and easy maintenance access (from the clean gas side) 7

7 Benefits for ESP conversions & retrofits made by Intensiv-Filter Lower clean gas dust emissions (constantly) compared to the ESP operation Economical i l bag filter design using low pressure off-line cleaning in combination with bag length up to 8m can be foreseen for ESP conversions, to decrease the pressure drop across the bag filter and to increase the bag life time. Re-use of existing casing, duct work, steel support, dust transport and auxiliary equipment Flexible and pre-assembled filter head module design reduces down time to a minimum and enables the plant to execute ESP conversions during regular plant shutdown times Low cost solution (compared to a new installation) 8

8 Different Concepts of ESP conversions executed by Intensiv-Filter Pre- assembled filter head modules (incl. new penthouse) on top of ESP casing 9

9 Different Concepts of ESP conversions executed by Intensiv-Filter Pre-assembled casing on top of existing ESP hoppers 10

10 Different Concepts of ESP conversions executed by Intensiv-Filter Pre- assembled filter head modules inside ESP casing upper casing used as penthouse 11

21 Kiln bag filter conversion at Dyckerhoff Zement s Deuna plant Complete installation today 22

22 Operation Data & Results at Dyckerhoff Zement s Deuna plant Filter Description Intensiv-Filter Type IF PJM 136/ / Filter Media 8 m Glass fibre with PTFE Membrane Operation Data Gas Volume Design up to Am³/h Gas Temperature up to 240 C Clean gas load Differential pressure Cleaning Mode less than 2 mg/nm³ 12hPa Semi Off-line Cleaning pressure appr. 1,3 up to 3,4bar 23

23 Summary Low clean gas dust emissions (constantly) independent from gas & dust properties Economical bag filter design can be foreseen for ESP conversions, to decrease the pressure drop across the bag filter and to increase the bag life time Re-use of existing equipment Reduced down time, enables the execution of the conversion during regular plant shutdown times Short amortisation time due to low invest cost solution 24
