Chemical Processing
The chemical processing industry supplies a significant variety of raw materials to a wide array of inter-related industries. The demand for these products in many cases requires continuous operation of their air pollution control systems in order to meet demanding production schedules.
Cerafil filters can provide the assurances and performance required to maintain continuous operation to meet high levels of emissions reduction, alleviating downtime and lost production.
Biomass
The biomass industry has seen growing importance and influence with renewable energy. The diversity of biomass and waste fuels requires a flexible approach, ensuring that the pollution control systems can adapt variety of fuels, and subsequent flue gas conditions. We work through these considerations with our clients, ensuring that we best balance the potential differences in flue gas conditions with the required systems.
Our team and partners have extensive experience in all aspects of biomass combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis process technologies and are available to demonstrate the capability ceramic filters can provide your biomass facility.
Waste to Energy
Concern for global climate change coupled with high oil prices has generated new interest in renewable energy sources, one of which is using waste (sewage sludge, municipal solid waste, tires, diesel fuel, etc.) to produce a valuable by-product, whether biochar, energy, or syngas.
Whether requiring multi-pollutant reduction of the flue gas to meet environmental compliance, or reduce dust and particulate from the syngas, we have the experience and product range to support your needs. Our ceramic filter systems are well suited to deliver optimal particulate and dust removal in the syngas (>99.99%) to allow for electricity production. While wet electrostatic precipitator (wESP) and venturi wet scrubbers have been used for syngas cleaning systems, ceramic filters provide an all dry system that can deliver optimized efficiency.
Additionally, ceramic filters are the premier solution for eliminating high levels of pollutants such as PM, NOx, SOx, HCl, and VOC to permitted levels, with the temperature flexibility to allow for optimal operation. For further improvement of the overall plant efficiency, our team can also support the integration with waste heat recovery.

Syngas
Ceramic Filter Alliance (CFA) is the sole supplier of Cerafil™ ceramic filters for syngas and gasification plants, providing reliable filtration of hot, dust-laden, and chemically aggressive gas streams. The single-piece, low-density alumino-silicate elements resist thermal shock, abrasion, and corrosion while capturing fine and sub-micron particles with up to 99.99% efficiency, consistently achieving emissions below 2mg/m³. Designed for continuous 24/7/365 operation, Cerafil filters maintain stable pressure drop and reliable performance even under high temperatures and variable process conditions. Filtration occurs as syngas passes through the porous ceramic wall, where particulate matter is trapped on the surface and removed through periodic cleaning. For advanced applications, Cerafil TopKat™ incorporates catalytic functionality directly into the filter wall, enabling simultaneous removal of particulate matter, NOx, and acid gases such as SOx, along with VOCs and dioxins, in a single step. This integrated approach reduces system complexity while ensuring compliance with stringent emissions limits.

Oil & Gas
As with all major industries, the desire to deliver higher levels of pollutant reduction is more critical than ever. With the demand for more environmentally friendly products in the face of increasing opposition to fossil fuels, delivering best-in-class environmental compliance provides a strong message.
At CFA, we have the products and services to enable optimal flue gas treatment and environmental compliance unlike no others. While most companies focus on
the technology, product or system required, our solutions are focused on your absolute need – compliance.
We work in partnership with a number of clients within the oil & gas sector to develop solutions that can be retrofitted to deliver maximum multi-pollutant reductions on flue gas emissions on existing refineries and Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCCU). Additionally, through wider collaboration, we develop long-term solutions to develop pollutant offsetting strategies that maximize the cost-effectiveness of your compliance strategy.
