Type of Bag Materials
Needle felts
A pulse-jet baghouse generally filters more air per cloth area (higher air-to-cloth ratio) than a shaker or reverse-air unit.Felted bags should not be used in high humidity situations, especially if the particles are hygroscopic (these particles have an affinity to absorb moisture and thus become sticky).Clogging or blinding could result in such situations.
Felted filters are usually used in pulse-jet baghouses

Woven Fabrics Woven filters have open spaces around the fibers. The weave design used will depend on the intended application of the woven filter. Different weaving patterns increase or decrease the open spaces between the fibers. This will affect both fabric strength and permeability. A tight weave, for instance,has low permeability and is better for the capture of small particles at the cost of increased pressure drop.
The true filtering surface for the woven filter is not the bag itself, but the dust layer or filter cake. The bag simply provides the surface for capture of larger particles. Particles are collected by impaction or interception as the open areas in the weave are closed. This processis referred to as sieving.
