Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of the high-voltage power supply waveform and the presence of a dielectric barrier on the collection of submicron particles in a wire-to-cylinder electrostatic precipitator. The experiments are carried out on two reactors (with or without dielectric barrier on the surface of the cylindrical collector electrode) with the same active section and volume. The results show that the highest collection efficiency is obtained with the negative dc corona. At equivalent electric power consumption, the Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) is as effective as the positive dc corona and the ac corona. The efficiency can reach 99% with both studied reactors, if the necessary power is provided.
