| Summary: | The ability to capture particles in the nanosize range (1-100 nm) with a single stage parallel plate electrostatic precipitator is studied. With the development of sophisticated nanoparticles synthesis techniques, the electrostatic precipitator also provides a powerful tool for collecting nanoparticles. Specifically, the investigation is further by varying the types of plates, distances between plates, variety types of dust and magnitude of supply voltage in order to find 'the factor that effect electrostatic precipitator performance for capturing nanoparticles. In this project it proved that the variable parameter influence the performance for capturing particles. The suitable distance was achieved is 2 cm for ESP to capture nanoparticles moreover the required voltage also not extremely high just lkV to 2 kV. While the suitable plate employed in this project is copper brass plate which it illustrate the better performance in capturing more weight and smaller size than others plate. |
