Measures to Control Air Pollution

Particulate Control

  • Mechanical collectors (dust cyclones, multi-cyclones)- Cyclonic separation is a method of removing particulates from air, gas or water stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. Rotational effects and gravity are used to separate mixtures of solids and fluids.

Electrostatic Precipitators

  • An electrostatic precipitator (ESP), or electrostatic air cleaner is a particulate collection device that removes particles from a flowing gas (such as air) using the force of an induced electrostatic charge.
  • Electrostatic precipitators are highly efficient filtration devices that minimally impede the flow of gases through the device, and can easily remove fine particulate matter such as dust and ....
