Multiclone Dust Collector (MDC)

MDC stands for Multiclone Dust Collector, which is a low-cost piece of equipment that can help reduce emissions in biomass boilers, cement and lime kilns, and other applications. MDCs are a series of cyclones that work in parallel to separate particles from the air as it flows through the draft system. They can remove 85% of boiler exhaust particulates, collect char for re-injection systems, pre-clean air to minimize erosion, and reduce load on downstream APC equipment. MDCs operate on the same principle as cyclones, creating a main downward vortex and an ascending inner vortex. They are more efficient than single cyclones because they are longer and smaller in diameter. The longer length provides longer residence time while the smaller diameter creates greater centrifugal force, resulting in better separation and dust particulates.
