Electro Static Precipitator What is the effect of moisture in dust particles on efficiency of electro static presipitator?
When moisture in dust particle its is late to ionise the gas as it was dry, so gas late to Ionise meanwhile gas accumulation treatment times fail. So the electrostatic precipitator lass efficient during this.
What are the auxiliaries of a boiler?
air preheters,fans ,gates & dampers ,rotor , electro static precipitator, ash handeling equipments...
Who is the inventor of cottrell precipitator?
arun
What is electro static precipitator esp?
An electrostatic precipitator is a device commonly used to remove fine dust particles from an airstream, or a smokestack exhaust. Often a two step process in which the unwanted particles are first given an electric charge, and then are easily attracted to a precipitate plate which carries an opposite charge. The very fines in smokestacks are an industrial problem, particularly because of their fineness, but they are then easily dealt with.
What is a electro static smoke percipitator?
An electrostatic (one word, not two) smoke precipitator is an apparatus which ionises the gas in a space. The ionised gas molecules attract smoke particles which agglomerate and, when they have reached a sufficient size they fall to the ground under their own weight.
What is sulphur precipitator?
it is a device that extracts sulphur from the air they can be found in chimneys
What is the full form of ETP in power plants?
Electrostatic tar precipitator
What type of pollution is minimized by electrostatic precipitator and filters in factors?
air pollution
How do chimneys in power stations work to attract soot particles?
Chimneys in power stations use electrostatic precipitator to attract soot particles. Electrostatic precipitator are filtration devices that use electromagnetic charges to remove particles from gases.
What is the voltage required for an electrostatic precipitator?
There is a lot of variation in the applied DC voltages that operate an electrostatic precipitator (ESP). Some work on a few thousand volts (a few kV), while big industrial units might run on upwards of 100,000 volts (100 kV).
How does a electrostatic precipitator use static electricity?
Inside an electrostatic precipitator some of the electrodes are made to be positively charged and some of them are made to be negatively charged. Usually the voltage between the electrodes is very high. When smoke or other exhaust gases are sent through the precipitator particles in the gas with negative charges tend to go to the positively charged electrodes and positively charged particles go to the negatively charged electrodes. When the particles reach the electrodes many are neutralised and fall to the bottom of the precipitator where they may be collected periodically. Some cling to the electrodes which means that precipitators must be cleaned periodically too.
What is the role of the precipitator and the scrubber in a coal burning power plant?
To remove and reduce particulate matter from the burnt gasses
