A manual of electrostatic precipitator technology

A MANUAL OF ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR TECHNOLOGY PART II - APPLICATION AREAS Prepared Under Contract CPA for THE NATIONAL AIR POLLUTION CONTROL ADMINISTRATION Division of Process Control Engineering Cincinnati, Ohio by Sabert Oglesby, Jr., Director Engineering Research and Principal Investigator and . The purpose e€ the manual is to provide a source of information that will be of benefit to the researcher, manufacturer, and user of electrostatic precipitators. The information and data are based on an electrostatic precipitator systems study performed under Contract No. CPA for the National Air Pollution Control Administration. Working Principle of Electrostatic Precipitator. The working principle of the electrostatic precipitator is moderately simple. It consists of two sets of electrodes: positive and negative. The negative electrodes are in the form of a wire mesh, and the positive electrodes are www.doorway.ruted Reading Time: 6 mins.

Final report Dec Feb 80}, author = {McDonald, J R and Dean, A H}, abstractNote = {The report incorporates the results of many studies into a manual oriented toward the collection of fly ash particles (produced by the combustion of pulverized coal) by electrostatic precipitation. This is the second of a two-part article that reviews electrostatic precipitation theory, presents size estimating methods, and gives costing procedures for a variety of electrostatic precipitator (ESP) types and sizes. Part I of the article, which appeared in the April issue o/JAPCA, discussed theory and sizing; this part presents costing. Electrostatic Precipitator can be defined as a type of air cleaner or filter that utilizes electric energy for removing the impurities, dust particles from the air. This is a commonly used device for controlling air pollution. Most of the industries, power stations generate fossil fuels in the process of electricity generation or manufacturing.

The report incorporates the results of many studies into a manual oriented toward the collection of fly ash particles (produced by the combustion of pulverized coal) by electrostatic precipitation (ESP). It presents concepts, measurement techniques, factors influencing ESP performance, data and data analysis from a practical standpoint.

Nichols, Senior Engineer Southern Research Institute Birmingham. Electrostatic Precipitator. The basic principle of an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) is to give particles an electrostatic charge and then put them in an electrostatic field that drives them to a collecting wall. A gas stream containing suspended particulates is allowed to pass between two electrodes electrically insulated from each other, and between which there is a considerable difference in electric potential.
