Topic

Development and demonstration of an electrostatic precipitator for fine particles, adapted to a biomass boiler. The precipitator has high efficiency to meet the emission limit of the 1st German Ordinance for Small Scale Combustion (1. BImSchV).

Aims

  • Co-operative project management to reach the technical goals 
  • Scientific project support to measure efficiencies and the operational stability of the precipitator
  • Joint elaboration of the precipitator design and procurement of precipitators for pilot- and field tests

Measures

  • Measurement of particle size distributions and chemical composition of precipitated dust
  • Investigation of deposit formation
  • Procurement of components, manufacturing and installation of prototypes
  • quality control

Focus

  • Wood combustion
  • Boiler emission control
  • precipitator
  • 1st BImSchV
