what is a baghouse
A baghouse is a dust collection devices that filter air by passing it through a cloth or synthetic fiber media (or bag). A bag is a long cylinder-shaped envelope that collects dust on its exposed surface. Baghouses differ not by the method by which dust is removed from the airstream but rather by the method by which dust is removed from the bag. If used in conjunction with a cyclone, a baghouse is used as an after filter and located downstream. Baghouses are necessary for air filtration, not scrap collection. Unlike the cyclone, the fine paper dust collected from a baghouse has no value in recycling.
