Electrostatic Precipitator | |
---|---|
Overview | An electrostatic precipitator (ESP) is a filtration device that removes fine particles, like dust and smoke, from a flowing gas using the force of an induced electrostatic charge minimally impeding the flow of gases through the unit. |
How Does it Works |
The metal grids in the electrostatic precipitator are given a high voltage. Depending on the design, the grids may be positively charged or negatively charged.
