The formation of filter cake helps to improve the dust removal efficiency, but it also increases the pressure loss. The effect of filter cake on pressure loss depends on filter cake thickness and dust specific resistance coefficient. When the thickness of the filter cake causes the pressure loss to reach a limited value, the filter cake must be removed. There are several methods, but they all belong to the two categories of vibrating and counter-current blowback.
English definition: The filtercake is a layer of compacted particles, the cake is expected to have a lower porrsity and permeability than the porous rock itself
