Strategies for Improvement

Improving Your Precipitator Operation

Improvement or optimization of precipitator operation can result in significant savings. Many specific situations encourage a review of precipitator operation:

  • Deterioration of existing equipment
  • Tightening of air pollution emission regulations
  • Changes in products and/or production rates
  • Frequent forced outages
  • De-rating of production

The key areas for performance improvement are reducing re-entrainment, improving gas flow distribution, and optimizing corona power.
