Abstract:
An emissions reduction stack includes a conditioning section, collector section utilizing a Wet Electrostatic Precipitator (WESP), and output section. A chemically active aqueous stream is introduced into an incoming process stream in order to saturate the stream and produce a fog stream wherein water is condensed on the surface of particulates. The process of condensation increases the efficiency of the particulate filtration process conducted by the WESP.
Abstract:
A filtration assembly (1), which comprises an enclosure (2) which defines inside it a duct (3) for the passage of a fluid which carries pollutant particles (A) to be removed. At a first transverse cross-section of the duct (3) at least one perforated conducting grille (4) is provided, which is kept at a negative electrical potential, so as to emit into the duct (3) electrons which can bond to the pollutant particles (A), consequently giving them a negative electrical charge. Inside the duct (3), downstream of the grille (4), at least one accumulation plate (5) is provided, kept at a positive electrical voltage, for collecting the pollutant particles (A) charged electrically negatively by the electrons emitted by the grille (4). Moreover, at least one deflection element (6) is arranged proximate to the accumulation plate (5) and is kept at a negative electrical potential in order to generate an electrical field inside the duct (3), with consequent redirection of the negatively electrically charged particles (A) toward the accumulation plate (5). The assembly comprises at least one conducting filament (7), which faces and is proximate to a respective hole (8) of the grille (4). The filament (7) is kept at a negative electrical potential, for the emission of electrons, which can bond to the pollutant particles (A) carried at least by the portion of fluid that passes through the respective hole (8).
Abstract:
An air purifier device includes a chamber defined by a side wall arranged to guide an air flow through the air purifier device. The air purifier device further includes at least one emitter electrode and at least one collector plate electrode arranged to ionize airborne particles. The at least one emitter electrode is arranged to extend from the side wall and inwards in the chamber and the at least one collector plate electrode is arranged to extend from the side wall and inwards in the chamber. The air purifier device enables the side wall to be manufactured from e.g. plastic, or other non-conductive or non-magnetic material. This in turn may enable a lower weight of the air purifier device and facilitated manufacturing, as the side walls of the chamber e.g. may be formed by plastic moulding just as many other parts of the air purifier device.
Abstract:
An inlet particle separator system for an engine includes an inner flowpath section, an outer flowpath section, a splitter, a first electrostatic discharge device, and a second electrostatic discharge device. The outer flowpath section surrounds at least a portion of the inner flowpath section and is spaced apart therefrom to define a passageway having an air inlet. The splitter is disposed downstream of the air inlet and extends into the passageway to divide the passageway into a scavenge flow path and an engine flow path. The first electrostatic charge device is disposed between the air inlet and the splitter and is electrostatically charged to a first polarity. The second electrostatic charge device is disposed downstream of the first electrostatic charge device and is electrostatically charged to a second polarity that is opposite to the first polarity.
