摘要： An electrostatic precipitator having an inner electrode extending along the axis of a tubular outer electrode. The inner electrode includes an elongated support electrode connected to a disc shaped discharge electrode having a transverse dimension larger than the transverse dimension of the support electrode. A high potential applied between the outer electrode and the support and discharge electrodes produces a relatively thin, radially and circumferentially uniform electrostatic field between the discharge electrode and the outer electrode, and a non-corona producing electric field between the support electrode and the outer electrode. A particle entrained gas is directed into the outer electrode at the discharge electrode end. The particles are charged by the thin, intense electrostatic field adjacent the discharge electrode, and are subsequently accelerated toward the outer electrode by the electric field extending between the support electrode and the outer electrode. The particles are then deposited on the walls of the outer electrode where they are removed by a film of liquid flowing along the inner surface of the outer electrode. In an alternate embodiment a plurality of discharge electrodes of either uniform or varying transverse dimensions are spaced apart along the support electrode to provide multiple charging and collection states through which the gas sequentially passes.

摘要： An air pollution control system using a novel control system is disclosed. The control system is particularly useful with a gas conditioning tower ("GCT") which uses a spray from a two-fluid nozzle to cool hot process gases prior to flowing to an electrostatic precipitator. A first control loop, employing, for example, a temperature feedback control system, is used during normal operation of the system, and an override control loop is used to protect the electrostatic precipitator from overheated gases which may be diverted in the case of a plant upset. The override control loop adjusts the spray based on a calculation of the spray characteristics needed to meet the new GCT conditioning requirements. In another aspect the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for optmizing the spray from a two-fluid nozzle used in a GCT. In particular, the spray droplets are made larger when possible, thereby reducing the energy usage of the system. In yet another aspect of the present invention, the controller used in the air pollution control system directly regulates delivery pressure of the air compressor used as a source of compressed air for the two-fluid nozzle, for further energy savings.

摘要： A venturi increases the velocity of contaminated gases and guides the gases past a high, extremely dense electrostatic field presented perpendicular to the gas flow and extending radially outward between a central, accurately sized disc electrode and the surface of the venturi throat. Downstream, charged particles are collected by a wet scrubbing process or electrostatic precipitator.

摘要： A method and apparatus for reducing discharges into the atmosphere of mercury pollutants associated with dry process, precalciner cement manufacturing is shown. Raw feed meal used in cement production is heated in a special heating chamber to drive off volatile mercury pollutants, such as elemental mercury and mercury oxides. Preferably, the feed meal is heated to a temperature of at least 175° C. The gases that are driven off flow are then cooled to condense the mercury pollutants causing them to be adsorbed on carbon particles injected into the gas flow. The carbon particles containing the condensed mercury pollutants are then filtered out of gas flow, for example, using a fabric filter. The gas flow may be burned to destroy other volatile pollutants such as hydrocarbons and/or ammonia.

摘要： A method and apparatus for reducing air pollutants associated with dry process, precalciner cement manufacturing is shown. Raw feed meal used in cement production is heated in a special heating chamber to drive off volatile compounds, such as organic materials and salts of ammonia. Preferably, the feed meal is heated to a temperature of at least 350° F. The gases that are driven off flow to the precalciner where they are combusted and rendered harmless. Heat is provided by diverting at least a portion of the exhaust gases from the cement pyroprocessing kiln to the special heater. The raw feed meal is indirectly heated using a heat exchange wall between the feed meal and the kiln exhaust gas flow. In addition, a base-containing material such as lime or precalcined feed meal, may be added to the raw feed before treatment meal to promote the breakdown of inorganic ammonium compounds, thereby releasing gaseous ammonia which is also destroyed upon subsequent combustion. Hot precalcined meal may also be used to provide some of the heat required to heat the raw feed meal in the special heating chamber.

摘要： A low-energy venturi pre-scrubber optimized for removing abrasive particles from a gaseous effluent is disclosed. While venturi scrubbers are efficiently used for at removing entrained particulates in air pollution control systems, they can be damaged due to the abrasive characteristics of entrained particles, such as silica particles greater than a micrometer in diameter. According to the present invention, high scrubbing efficiencies can be obtained in equipment that is not damaged by the abrasive particles by first removing the abrasive particles in a low-energy venturi, and then removing the remaining particles in a second scrubber. In addition to improving the lifetime and reducing the maintenance costs of the venturi, scrubbing fluids have fewer large particles, allowing their use in downstream components, such as evaporative coolers.

摘要： The present invention provides improved systems and methods for scrubbing gas with a venturi scrubber. A dual spray venturi scrubber, in which a scrubbing liquid is injected upstream and counter to the flow through the venturi, provides for improved scrubbing performance, including efficient and economical scrubbing of fine particles. Specifically, the present invention reduces the scrubbing liquid pumping requirements, improves the scrubber performance, and provides better control of the pressure drop across the venturi scrubber. The control of pressure drop across the venturi can be obtained with no internal mechanisms or upstream spray.
