N2 - Most countries primarily utilize thermal power to meet their energy needs. However, thermal power generation generates a substantial amount of pollutants, such as particulate matter (PM), SOX, and NOX. These pollutants not only damage backend turbines and related equipment but also pollute the environment; thus, controlling their emissions is critical. This study developed a system operating under high temperature by integrating heating, pneumatic conveying, dust particulate supply, and filter material transport systems. This setup enables the simulation of the entry of syngas with PM at the output of a gasification unit. The developed composite filtration system was analyzed under various operational parameters, including different temperatures, inlet air velocities, and mass flow rates of filter material, to examine the changes in the dust particulate size distribution at its outlet and its PM2.5 collection efficiency. In a series of tests, the collection efficiency of this system reached at least 95% at operating temperatures between 20°C and 600°C. Each 100°C increase in the operating temperature resulted in a 0.63% decrease in the PM2.5 collection efficiency. The findings of this study lay the foundation for the future development of high-temperature gas purification systems.
