Abstract
The separation of particles from gases is one of the fundamental technical problems of engineering, finding increasing application in many industries, both for environmental protection and prevention of fouling and damage to equipment. The devices which have been proposed to achieve this separation are astonishingly varied in design, in the physical principles upon which they rely, and in their effectiveness. Classification of separation devices is therefore difficult, but this is normally done on the basis of the physical principles which are applied. For example, Svarovsky (1981) uses the classification:
-
aero-mechanical dry separators
-
aero-mechanical wet separators (‘scrubbers’)
-
electrostatic precipitators
-
filters
