Bearings for Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Systems

Industrial flue gas desulfurization systems require highly durable and reliable bearings capable of withstanding continuous operation in harsh environments. These bearings are essential components in scrubbers, agitators, fans, pumps and rotating equipment exposed to moisture, corrosive chemicals and high loads. We supply a wide range of bearings specifically designed for the demanding conditions of FGD applications and heavy industrial processes.

Why FGD bearings are critical

FGD systems operate in extreme conditions where bearings must handle:

  • High humidity and aggressive chemical exposure
  • Elevated temperatures during desulfurization processes
  • High radial and axial loads in pumps and agitators
  • Continuous 24/7 operation with minimal downtime
  • Contaminants such as slurry, gypsum and fine particles

Choosing the correct bearings significantly improves equipment reliability, reduces maintenance costs and increases operational efficiency in power plants and industrial facilities.

Typical bearing types for FGD applications

  • Spherical roller bearings – for high load capacity and misalignment tolerance
  • Cylindrical roller bearings – for motors, fans and heavy-duty shafts
  • Deep groove ball bearings – low-noise, sealed, corrosion-resistant options
  • Angular contact ball bearings – for pump shafts and combined loads
  • Thrust bearings – for vertical pumps and agitator systems
  • Special corrosion-resistant bearings – stainless steel or coated variants
