Combination Fluid Bed/Baghouses

Applied Chemical Technology's Combination Fluid Bed/Baghouses combine process operations and environmental control in a single unit, reducing space requirements and allowing greater flexibility in plant layout. The continuous operation design offers non-stop production capabilities for almost unlimited process applications, while the integrated baghouse easily captures undersized particles for elimination or recirculation. We offer a versatile range of fluid bed sizes to meet any need, from research and development operations to full-scale production plants.
