摘要: An electro-inertial precipitator unit for removing particulate contaminants from a gaseous stream passing through collector tube having discharge electrode coaxially disposed therein to establish an electrostatic field between the and downwardly-flowing liquid film on inner surface of tube. The is introduced tangentially into upper inlet section impart swirling motion thereto, being supplied annular slot just below gas section. Because centrifugal force generated by motion, particles in are urged migrate toward film, this migration further promoted acting which charged with ions field. To avoid formation dust streaks tube, tend occur relatively low flow rates, flowing therethrough pulsed.
