Self-regulated bipolar agglomerator
This electrostatic precipitator allows an energetically favourable precipitation of particulate matter and aerosols. When aerosol concentrations are too high, as is the case in combination with high velocity, an operating condition known as “Corona quenching” can occur in the electrostatic precipitator. A quenched condition is characterised by a significant reduction in power consumption accompanied by high particle emissions. High field strengths develop near the collecting electrode, which can release electrical arcs.
This invention is based on the task of being able to separate highly concentrated, fine aerosols or particulate matter more efficiently than has previously been the case.
