Recently the pulsed power systems have been widely used in many fields such as E/P(Electrostatic Precipitator), DeNOx/DeSOx power systems, ozone generators and power sources of the laser beam. In this paper, we studied various electrical characteristics for arc suppression of line-to-line electrodes in air and removal of the metaloxide using our pulsed power system. To obtain high efficiency of the pulsed power system, we repeatedly experimented and tested their characteristics. by adjusting electrode length of the load. As a result, when the value of the electrode length and pulse repetition rate were changed at the load, the value of the arc voltage changed at the electrode load. In conclusion, we controlled arc voltage of the load by ,changing electrode length and pulse repetition rate. Also. we stydied removal area of the metaloxide using area discharge according to pulse repetition rate.

GORE-TEX MEMBRANE은 PTFF(POLYTETRA FLUOROETHYLENE)를 특수가공하여 극히 미세한 구조를 가지는 연속다공질체로 만들어 습,건식용 산업용 여과재로써 활용하므로써 그동안 사용되어오던 종래의 심층여과방식의 여과포로서는 도저히 이룰 수 없었던 표면여과기능을 갖춤에 따라 높은 집진효율이나 낮은압력손실로 동시에 운전을 가능하게한 새로운 기능의 첨단여과포로써 각종산업분야에 이미 널리 적용되고 있다. 근래 BOILER, 소각로, 제철, 제강용로등의 고온용 BAG FILTER 소요가 증가됨에 따라 보다 효율적이고 경제적인 고온용 여과포에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 특히, 소각로, 발전설비, CEMENT 생산공정중 KILN 공정등에 주로 사용되어오던 전기 집진기 (ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR)의 집진효율이 DIOXINE 이나 FURAN 등의 새로운 규제와 중금속, 혹은 분진들에 대해 강화되는 환경 규제치에 적응하기 어려워짐에 따라 BAG FILTER로의 전환/개선 방안이 많이 연구되고 있으며 이미 활용되어지는 부분도 있는바 이에 대한 새로운 적용방법등을 소개하고자 한다.

The new spray system is proposed by using a pipe with hygroscopic needle electrode In order to develop an air-cleaning ESP with high collection efficiency for submicron particles and high removal efficiency for NOx, SO$_2$, NH$_3$. Fundamental characteristics of charging water spray, which is not an usual wet type, are investigated experimentally. As a result, corona discharging mode and ozone generation rate are significantly affected by the operational conditions, such as the applied voltage and wet condition of the needle electrode.

DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge) plasma in air is well established for the production of large quantities of ozone and is more recently being applied to aftertreatment processes for HAPs(Hazardous Air Pollutants). Although DBD high electron density and energy, its potential use as nano and sub-micron sized particle charging are not well known. Aim of this work is to determine design and operating parameters of a two-stage ESP with DBD. DBD and ESP are used as particle charger and precipitator, respectively. We measured particle precipitation efficiency of two-stage ESP and estimated ozone decomposition of both pelletized $MnO_2$ catalyst and pelletized activated carbon. To examine the particle precipitation efficiency, nano and sub-micron sized particles were generated by a tube furnace and an atomizer. AC voltage of $7{\sim}10$ kV(rms) and 60 Hz is used as DBD plasma source. DC -8 kV is applied to the ESP for particle precipitation. The overall particle collection efficiency for the two-stage ESP with DBD is over 85 % under 0.64 m/s face velocity. Ozone decomposition efficiency with pelletized $MnO_2$ catalyst or pelletized activated carbon packed bed is over 90 % when the face velocity is under 0.4 m/s in dry air.

This study aimed to develop a new dust collecting system equipped with an activated carbon (A.C.) coated electrode. Before fabrication, pre-treatment of A.C. was performed to remove metal ions within the A.C. to enlarge its specific surface area. Then, pre-treated A.C., black carbon, polyvinyl acetate (PVAc), and methanol were mixed to make a gel compound, which was coated onto aluminum plates to fabricate electrodes. The optimal mixing ratio of A.C., black carbon, PVAc, and methanol was found to be 10 g: 2 g: 3 g: 20 mL. After fabrication, the electrodes were used in the batch-type experiment for $NH_3$ and $H_2S$ removal. The reduction rates of the gases were high at the beginning and slowly reduced with time. Dust collection experiments were conducted in continuous flow, with various voltages applied. Compared to 5 kV, dust removal efficiency was 1.5 times higher when 10 kV was applied. Increasing the number of electrodes applied also increased the collecting efficiency. The correlation coefficient between actual collecting efficiency and trend line was higher than 99%. Consequently, the novel dust collection system equipped with A.C. coated electrode appears to be a promising substitute for existing dust-control devices.

The demand for high-efficiency dust collectors is rapidly increasing to remove PM from exhaust gas emission facilities, such as thermal power plants, steel mills, and industrial cogeneration plants, as the Pmemission standards have been strengthened. In this study, the electrospray is adapted for existing electrosratic precipitator(EP) to remedy its shortcomings and to improve the performance. Electrospray has been mainly used for the purpose of generating very fine droplets, but fir the purpose of EP, the flow rate over 10 mL/min per nozzleis required, and a high flow rate condition of 65 to 200 times is required. The electrospray of high flow rate has a completely different spray shape from the low flow rate condition, and was visualized through various figures such as corona discharge photographs and shadow images.

Orimulsion, a bitumen-in-water emulsified fuel, has been used throughout the world as a substitute fuel for heavy oil and coal. Orimulsion has relatively high levels of sulfur, nickel, and vanadium, compared to other fuel oils and coals, and has been the subject of much debate regarding the environmental impacts. In Korea, Y power plant has operated boilers with Orimulsion as a fuel, and they has some drawbacks during the plant operation, such as plume opacity. In this study, we investigated the cause of formation mechanism and factors for the plume opacity by investigating the operation data, and measuring the particle size distribution at EP(Electrostatic Precipitator), FGD(Fuel Gas Desulfurization) and TMS(Telecommunications Management System) units. Resulting data showed the primary particles below 1 ${\mu}m$ formed were regrown by the recombination of $SO_3$ in wet-limestone FGD process, and thus the secondary particles are induced to cause the plume opacity.

Urban railway tunnels are polluted by resuspension of deposited bottom dust or newly generated wear dust. A hybrid type dust collector consisting of a baffle and an electrostatic precipitator was developed to remove these types of airborne dust when trains are running in the tunnel. Since dust collection efficiency of the hybrid dust collector is inversely proportional to the airflow rate, the relationship between airflow rate and dust collection efficiency was experimentally investigated for two baffle models. Collection efficiencies for dust larger than $0.5{\mu}m$ for the hybrid dust collector model A1, operated at 3.4 m/s, were greater than 30%; those for the hybrid dust collector model A2, operated at 4.7 m/s, were higher than 20%. When the applied voltage was 13 kV, the amounts of $PM_{10}$ collected with model A1 and model A2 dust collectors were estimated at $253{\mu}g$ and $242{\mu}g$ per hour, respectively.

It is about how much fine dust can be efficiently removed with respect to the electric dust collector used in factories and large facilities. The results of evaluating the fine dust removal efficiency are as follows. At 10,000 V, Efficiency method I showed 68.1 %, and Efficiency method II was 58.6 %, which was lower than that of Efficiency method I. At 5,000 V, Efficiency method I showed 57.6%, and Efficiency method II showed 51.6%, which was lower than Efficiency method I. At 2,500 V, Efficiency method I showed 50.3%, and Efficiency method II showed 24.4%, which was lower than Efficiency method I. In case of Efficiency method I, it is the efficiency calculated by using the dust concentration before and after passing through the filter. Efficiency method II calculated Efficiency method II to measure the efficiency a little more accurately in the environment where the air after the filter and the polluted air are mixed. Efficiency method II showed lower efficiency than Efficiency method I. As a result of the electrostatic precipitator test, the dust collecting performance was highest at 10,000 V, followed by 5,000 V and 2,500 V in that order.

People's environmental concerns for fine particles in Korea lead to the strong necessity of improving the performance of environmental control systems. Wet electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) are considered as one of the alternatives to overcome the limit of previous dry ESPs, the re-entrainment of collected particles during rapping and back corona problem for high electrical resistivity dusts etc. In this study, a wire-cylindrical ESP with a thin water film has been developed. Particle collection characteristics were compared in the ESP with operations of water film on and off. Particle collection efficiencies at various applied voltages as well as voltage-current curves were almost the same in the ESP with and without a water film. Particle collection performance for PM1.0, PM2.5 and PM10 in the wet ESP with a water film was constantly maintained with operation time even in the high dust loading environment. This results indicate that a uniform water film in our wet ESP was successfully formed with a very thin layer without any dry spot and therefore could continuously clean the collected particles on the inner wall of the ESP without any performance degradation.
