Electrostatic precipitator is the most efficient device used for the removal of fly ash particles
from the flue gases produced by coal-fired boilers in power plants. However, the fractional …

Marine diesel engines emit particles that have a complex nature, being composed by
carbonaceous particles, with size spanning from few nanometres to less than one micron …

Scrubbing with seawater is a reliable technology for flue-gas desulfurization in coal-fired
power plants or in marine applications. The introduction of new regulations for emission …

Electrospray of Water and aqueous solutions is a simple, steady and continuous process for
