ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR

THE PER­FECT DE­SIGN MAKES THE DIF­FER­ENCE

or­ward-think­ing tech­nol­ogy for flue gas de­dust­ing. De­sign­ing elec­tro­sta­tic pre­cip­i­ta­tors for flue gas clean­ing af­ter com­bus­tion processes re­quires a great deal of process ex­per­tise, as a huge num­ber of pa­ra­me­ters need to be taken into ac­count. On the one hand, the ash com­po­si­tion and the flue gas pa­ra­me­ters, which have a di­rect in­flu­ence on the sep­a­ra­tion ef­fi­ciency, must be con­sid­ered, with­out ne­glect­ing the gen­eral con­di­tions of the process on the other hand. It is only by cor­rectly eval­u­at­ing the ad­van­tages and dis­ad­van­tages of the var­i­ous tech­nolo­gies and their com­bi­na­tions – with down­stream heat re­cov­ery sys­tems, for ex­am­ple – that the ideal cus­tomer-spe­cific so­lu­tion can be achieved.

AD­VAN­TAGES OF ELEC­TRO­STA­TIC PRE­CIP­I­TA­TORS

• High degree of separation, even with fine dust
• Largely impervious to load fluctuations,
  flying sparks, overheating and sporadic dew point shortfall
• Low operating costs thanks to low pressure loss
  and low maintenance costs
• Long service life and high availability
• Highly suited to retrofitting in existing plants
