Wet ESP Technology A Proven Solution for Particulate Control
• High efficiency PM removal, including sub-
micron
• Proven solution on many applications
• No impediment to gas flow, low pressure
drop
• Ideal for clean-up after wet scrubber
• High uptime, low maintenance
• Simple solution, add-on capability

Wet ESP vs. Scrubber
•Size has a strong influence
on the performance of a wet
precipitator in collecting
fine particles
•Wet electrostatic
precipitators capture fine
particles more efficiently
than the highest-energy wet
scrubbers
