Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Electrostatic precipitation (ESP) is a widespread technology in the field of filterless particle removal, especially for flue gas cleaning, due to its important ability to collect suspended particles and low pressure loss. As the applications of electrostatic precipitation for coal-fired power plants are facing saturation, the versatility and mechanism of electrostatic precipitation are attracting more interest. Recently, research on electrohydrodynamic flow, nanoparticle collection, indoor air cleaning, etc. has grown rapidly, indicating numerous gaps in knowledge and engineering applications to fully take advantage of electrostatic precipitation. This Special Issue aims to bring together the latest works on mechanisms, numerical models, and applications of electrostatic precipitation, from basic research to applied development, and to contribute to the collection and manipulation of particles, micro–nano materials, biological cells, and flow fields.

A wet electrostatic precipitator (WESP) is typically installed downstream of wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) to remove fine particles and sulfuric acid mists from flue gases in coal-fired power plants. The emission reduction characteristics of multiple pollutants and the energy consumption data of 214 sets of WESPs (94 sets of metal plate WESPs, 111 sets of conductive Fiber Reinforced Plastic WESPs, and 9 sets of flexible plate WESPs) were tested and analyzed, and the results showed that: WESPs had a high removal efficiency on PM, PM2.5, SO3, droplets and Hg, and mostly concentrated in ≥75%, ≥70%, ≥60%, ≥70% and ≥40%, respectively. The outlet pollutant concentrations were mostly concentrated in ≤5 mg/m3, ≤3 mg/m3, ≤5 mg/m3, ≤15 mg/m3 and ≤5 μg/m3, respectively. Specific power consumption and specific water consumption were concentrated in the range of 0.5~2.5 × 10−4 kWh/m3 and ≤10 × 10−6 t/m3. The correlation analysis of multiple pollutant’s removal performance was studied and the quantitative evaluation index requirements of high efficiency WESPs were determined in this paper. The high efficiency indexes of WESPs, such as PM emission concentration, SO3 emission concentration, PM removal efficiency, SO3 removal efficiency, pressure drop, air leakage rate and specific power consumption, were ≤2.50 mg/m3, ≤2.50 mg/m3, ≥90%, ≥85%, ≤200 Pa, ≤0.5% and ≤1.3 × 10−4 kWh/m3, respectively. The high efficiency indexes of specific water consumption for metal plate WESPs and FRP WESPs were ≤2.50 and ≤0.66 × 10−6 t/m3, respectively. This study can provide valuable reference for the following energy conservation and efficiency improvement of ultra-low emission units. Full article

This study aimed to investigate the effects of wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) on particulate matter (PM) emissions in coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) using an electrical low-pressure impactor (ELPI). The investigation was conducted on five industrial CFPPs of various loads in China to clarify the influence factors of WFGD on PM10 emissions. After WFGD, the proportion of PM2.5 to PM10 in the outlet flue gas increases, which showed that the WFGD system is selective in the capture of PM, with a significant effect on the capture of large particle sizes. The investigation found that four spray layers have a better effect on the capture of particles than two spray layers. Additionally, the investigation also found that unit load is not the main factor affecting the efficiency of PM10 capture by WFGD. Instead, the factors affecting the capture efficiency of PM10 by WFGD are the inlet flue gas temperature and the dust concentration. Relatively higher inlet flue gas temperature and lower inlet dust concentration will both result in higher emission of PM0.1~1 from the WFGD outlet. These findings suggest that a matched integration of WFGD and CFPP is essential for ultra-low PM emission control and green industry development. Full article
