Meeting the most stringent regulation
with the lowest cost
Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP) are widely accepted across the world as an
effective system for particulate emissions control. Alstom Electrostatic
Precipitators, offer a reliable solution to the demands of increasingly strict
regulations for particulate matter emissions worldwide, at the lowest
lifecycle cost.
ESPs work by creating a high voltage electrical field (corona) around the discharge
electrodes, which causes the gases and the dust particles being carried by the gases,
to get ionised. The dust particles, once charged, migrate to and deposit themselves
on the neutral collecting plates, from which they are dislodged by periodic rapping and
guided to dust hoppers for removal.
Alstom offers a wide range of ESP designs, with a choice of discharge electrodes and
rapping systems, to provide the most cost effective, technically reliable solution for
every application.
