Air Filtration - The Dark Horse of Gas Turbine Performance

Enhancements the performance of Rotating Equipment in term of cost optimization by extending the MTBI and improving the efficiency is dynamic exercises and endless journey, so by utilizing the proven available latest technology to protect the gas turbines from fouling is the Operator major challenge. The Air Inlet Filtration System is a very important auxiliary system protecting Gas Turbine (GT) internal components from air born contaminants at reasonable pressure drop (PD) Enhancements the performance of Rotating Equipment in term of cost optimization by extending the MTBI and improving the efficiency is dynamic exercises and endless journey, so by utilizing the proven available latest technology to protect the gas turbines from fouling. The Air Inlet Filtration System is a very important auxiliary system protecting Gas Turbine (GT) internal components from air born contaminants at reasonable pressure drop (PD) Turbine Inlet Air Filtration System utilizing "D-Fog + F9 Pulse Jet + HEPA-E12 Static Filter is a reality of improvement/Saving by actual readings from PI System of gas turbines leading to achieved the followings within filter service Life Time (Two Years) : GTs filtration system upgrades are considered as standard for all Single Stage Self Cleaning Filtration as well as multistage Filtration system and as a good reference in case for other entities within ADNOC group of Companies to follow and achieve similar benefits as applicable for their Gas Turbines applications, since ADNOC -OPCOs have big fleets of Gas Turbines to gain all benefits mentioned. The initiative of "Improving the Quality of Gas Turbine Inlet Air via upgrading the Filter Element to HEPA12/E12 class media type as a direct replacement to the installed (D-Fog + F8 Pulse Jet class + F9 Static) and upgraded to "D-Fog + F9 Pulse Jet + HEPA-E12 Static had been achieved
