Abstract:
Direct wood combustion in small and middle scale boilers is widely used for domestic heat power generation. Due to progress of combustion technologies particle emissions from biomass combustion has decreased with respect to mass concentration. However, fine particles, which are generated during combustion and which are high in number concentration, still contribute to PM-burden in many locations. The purpose of the current work is the study of the compact ESP for reduction of particle emissions from the exhaust gases from small scale biomass combustion facilities. The scientific innovation relates to the control of ESP parameters and operation stability by various combustions conditions, taking into consideration the influence of exhaust gas temperature and corona discharge suppression phenomena on particle charging in the corona discharge field. The technological innovation relates to optimization of ESPs parameters and development of recommendations for effective reduction of particulate emissions from biomass combustion facilities for high particle concentrations in the exhaust gas.
