A Numerical Simulation about Collection Efficiency of Electrostatic Precipitator

Combination of Electrospray with Electrostatic Precipitator for Collection Efficiency Enhancement of Fine Particles

Electrospray was employed upstream of an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) to enhance the collection efficiency of monodisperse nanometer-sized particles. The electrospray of deionized water produced water droplets with a size range from several tens to several hundreds μm. The visible combined effect of the ESP with the electrospray was found for the collection of particles larger than about 20...

Removal of Particulate Matter in a Tubular Wet Electrostatic Precipitator Using a Water Collection Electrode

As one of the effective control devices of air pollutants, the wet electrostatic precipitator (ESP) is an effective technique to eliminate acid mist and fine particles that are re-entrained in a collection electrode. However, its collection efficiency can deteriorate, as its operation is subject to water-induced corrosion of the collection electrode. To overcome this drawback, we modified the w...

Diesel PM Collection for Marine Emissions Using Double Cylinder Type Electrostatic Precipitator

Low resistive particulate matter (PM) generated from marine engines or diesel generators has been known to be difficult to collect by the conventional electrostatic precipitators (ESP). In the present study, the double-cylinder type ESP (DC ESP) was developed to remove low resistive diesel exhaust particles. Two ESPs, namely, the conventional singlecylinder type ESP (SC ESP ) and DC ESP were in...

Role of Electrostatic Precipitator in Industry

Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP) are most important device used to control the pollution by collecting dust particles present on flue gases. In power plants, Coal used in Indian thermal power stations is of inferior grade, at power plant flue gas is often treated with a series of chemical process and scrubbers, having low calorific value (3500-4500)kcal/kg and high ash content due to drift ori...
