We have developed a novel ESP that uses an anticorrosive carbon brush precharger and
plastic collection plates into which metallic films are inserted. The collection efficiency of the
ESP was measured using ultrafine KCl particles by varying the applied voltages, the number
of channels in the charger, the gap between the collection plates, and the air flow rates.
Tests of loading and cleaning on the collection plates were also conducted using JIS class#
8 dusts and KCl particles. The experimental results showed that the precharger (400× 400× …
