MF&T, the Porvair Filtration Group Gas Division, have been awarded a contract from a landfill gas operator to provide new filter units to protect the boiler units from contaminants in the syngas.

The filter units provided were based on the Megga Gaz Slimline range but with a new design constructed entirely from stainless steel and providing a cleanable filter unit. The Slimline range was developed for installations where filter systems were required to be fitted in positions where conventional cylindrical filter assemblies were not possible due to space restrictions.
