Investigation on the sediment characteristics of the electrostatic cyclonic precipitator

In order to find out the relationship between the sediment characteristics and collecting efficiency of the electrostatic cyclonic precipitator, an online study for the sediment characteristics of electrostatic cyclonic precipitator had been done with Kompton back scatter method, with the collecting efficiency tested at the same time. And the relationship between the sediment characteristics and the collecting efficiency was gotten. The sediment thickness increased with time extended and the concentration increased when the inlet velocity was fixed. The collecting efficiency increased with the inlet velocity increased, but dropped with the concentration increased. When the concentration and inlet velocity were fixed, the collecting efficiency drop a little with the increase of sediment thickness. The sediment would decrease the corona current in the collecting filed, which would make the electrostatic effect fall, then made the collecting efficiency drop a little.
