Abstract

Abstract

In response to the increasingly severe dust pollution control challenges in the current industrial field， this paper innovatively proposed a electrostatic dust collector with magnetic enhancement and wire mesh filtration. By introducing an external magnetic field， this technology physically enhances the traditional electrostatic dedusting process. A systematic comparative analysis was conducted on the variation patterns of discharge characteristics and dust removal efficiency before and after the magnetic field intervention. The experiments investigated the impact of wire mesh structural parameters on dust removal performance， focusing on three core factors： pore sizes of the metal wire mesh （1， 2， 3 mm）， number of stacked wire mesh layers（1， 2， 3）， and the type of composite filtration material coated on the wire mesh surface （polyethylene filter mesh， polyamide mesh）. Concurrently， the effects of airflow velocity （1 to 5 m/s）， inlet flow direction （forward/reverse direction）， and dust type （fly ash， coal combustion dust， cement ash） on the removal efficiency were systematically tested. The experimental results showed that the optimized magnetic field-wire mesh coupling structure could significantly enhance the charging and capture efficiency of fine dust， providing a feasible technical solution for efficient industrial flue gas dedusting.
