Electrostatic Precipitation Procedure

Overview

An Electrostatic Precipitation Procedure can be created by selecting the following menu option:
Unit Procedures } Filtration } Electrostatic Precipitation

	Operating Mode	Continuous or Semi-Continuous
	Host Equipment	Electrostatic Precipitator
	Emissions Port (Vent)	No
	Special Input/Output Ports	Yes

This unit procedure simulates the performance of an electrostatic precipitator. Electrostatic precipitators are typically used to remove dry dust or liquid droplet particles from gaseous streams (primarily air) in high volumes.

Special Inputs / Outputs

●      Exhaust Gas: the designated output port for gas.

●      Particles: the designated output port for particles.

Operations

The following operation types are currently supported in the context of this unit procedure:

●      Precipitate, see Electrostatic Precipitation

●      Hold, see Holding

Note that operation Hold is only available in semi-continuous operating mode.
