Abstract

Apparatus for removing a wide variety of differing solid and aerosol waste materials from effluent or exhaust streams produced by an industrial process. This invention may be especially useful as a pre- or post-conditioner of the effluent to prevent plugging in any number of available pollution control devices. More particularly, a rotating pack bed filter removes solid and aerosol waste materials, if present, from an effluent and simultaneously regenerates the filter media by (1) heating to thermally decompose the collected material trapped in the filter media into a residue and to drive off gaseous pollutants carried by the collected material and (2) cleaning to remove the residue from the media.
