Electrostatic precipitator for flue gas cleaning
In industrial processes such as smelting or cement production, cleaning flue gases becomes crucial due to high levels of particulate emissions. Achieving a high degree of separation while ensuring energy efficiency and operational reliability is essential for compliance with environmental regulations.

Remove fine particulates from flue gases
The GEA Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) employs electrostatic forces to remove particulates from flue gas streams. The ESP can achieve virtually any desired collection efficiency, ensuring compliance with strict environmental regulations. Dust particles in the gas are electrically charged and migrate to collecting electrodes, where they are captured. The GEA ESP is efficient at high temperatures (up to 450 °C) and is designed to evenly distribute gas flow using optimized gas deflection and distribution plates. This allows for effective performance with less vertical space compared to bag filters. The ESP is durable, with components designed to withstand high internal pressures and environmental forces. Its modular design and comprehensive experience with over 12,000 units supplied globally make it a reliable solution for diverse applications.
