The particulate collection at high temperature and high pressure (HTHP) is important on the advanced coal power generation system not only to improve the thermal efficiency of the system, but also to prevent the gas turbine from erosion and to meet the emission limits of the effluent gas. The specifications for particulate collection in those systems such as Integrated Coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) and Pressurized Fluidized Bed Combustion (PFBC) require the absolutely high collection efficiency and reliability. Advanced cyclone, granular bed filter, electrostatic precipitator, and ceramic filter have been developed for particulate collection on the advanced coal power generation system. However, rigid ceramic filters and granular bed filter among them show the best potential. The current technology of these collectors was evaluated in this paper. The experienced problems of these systems on performance, materials, and mechanical design were investigated. Ceramic candle filters has the best potential for IGCC at this moment because it has nearly the highest efficiency comparing with other filtering systems and has accumulated many reliable design data resulted from many field experiences.
