An Electro Static Precipitator is a filtration device that removes airborne particles like dust and ash from polluted air using principles of induced electric charges. While electrostatic precipitators are used in all major large scale industries, their use in small scale industries is limited. This is largely because small-scale manufacturers have the lack of awareness and the unavailability of equipment for pollution control in small scale industrial standards. This paper is intended to design and construct a scaled down and economized Electrostatic Precipitator which is controlled by a smoke detector circuit. This can be installed and utilized in small scale industries as an air pollution control unit. Design procedures of a scaled down precipitator chamber with a high voltage power supply and smoke detector circuit are presented in this article. These procedures are well illustrated in a stepwise manner and contain several statistical data and expressions required for the construction of the devices. A comparison of various topologies of various units of ESPs is made and the most appropriate selection for the scaled down model is proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
