 ESP Operation Principle
Electrostatic precipitation is a physical process which the particulate suspended in a gas stream
electrically charged in a corona field and under the influence of the electric field, is driven to a
collecting surface and separated from the gas. This process is exceedingly complex. Electrical,
mechanical, chemical and aerodynamic phenomena are intimately involved.

Three aspects of the process are :

• Charging the suspended particulate.
• Collecting the particulate under the influence of the electric field.
• Removing the particulate from the collecting surfaces and transfer from the system.

An electrostatic precipitator consists of electrically grounded plates with negatively-charged

electrode suspended between them. A gas stream with particulate (material to be removed) is
introduced between the plates. The electric charge on the electrode creates a corona field which
imparts a negative charge to the particulate. The charged plates are repeatedly struck by rappers
installed above them, dislodging the particulate which falls into a hopper beneath the plates.
Periodically, the particulate is removed from the hoppers.
