  • Abstract
    CHARGING CONDITIONS and particle size are important factors in electrostatic gas cleaning. Particle mobility, the rate at which the particle moves in an electric field of unit strength, is a function of the charge and size of the particle. The minimum mobility and the particle size at which it occurs, are functions of the charging conditions.
