Abstract
We have considered the pressing issue of increasing the efficiency of catching fine solid particles from process gas flows in industrial enterprises. A developed rectangular separator allows collecting fine-dispersed particles of 1–10 μm in diameter from gas flows. It was found that the efficiency of the separator is not less than 99% at the gas flow rate of more than 10 m/s at particle density of 1000 kg/m3. We have investigated the effect of the gas flow velocity and the fine particle size on the collection efficiency and pressure drop in the device. Using the separator as a second cleaning stage, placed in series with the coarse cleaning apparatus, can prevent re-entrainment of valuable material into the atmosphere
