Overview
The Wet Electrostatic Precipitator (WESP) is a highly effective solution for controlling fine particulate emissions in industrial processes. By applying a high-voltage DC electric field, it efficiently ionizes gas particles and captures dust on collection electrodes, which are cleaned using a continuous water flushing system.
Design Configurations
WESP systems come in two primary designs to meet diverse industrial needs:
-
Horizontal Configuration: Designed for applications requiring extended electric fields to maximize filtration efficiency. Its modular setup allows for segmented power supply zones but requires more installation space.
-
Vertical Configuration: Space-saving and efficient, this design integrates with absorption towers to streamline operations. It reduces site requirements and simplifies water recycling while improving system efficiency.
Operating Principle
The WESP operates by generating a strong electric field between discharge electrodes and collection plates. This field ionizes particles within the flue gas, causing dust to adhere to the collection surfaces. A steady flow of cleaning water ensures continuous removal of accumulated dust, maintaining the system's performance and efficiency.
This innovative dust extraction system is tailored for industries seeking a reliable solution to meet air quality standards. With options for customized configurations, the WESP offers enhanced performance, longevity, and seamless integration into various industrial applications.
