Level Measurement in PAC Silos at Coal-Fired Power Plants
Accurately measure levels of fine powder activated carbon (PAC) despite low DC challenge.
Continuous Material Monitoring with Radar and Point Level Technologies
Powder activated carbon (PAC) is used to attract mercury to the fly ash to enhance its removal in electrostatic precipitators (ESP) or baghouses. PAC is a very fine, lightweight, dusty powder with a low DC, making accurate measurement a challenge.
