Removal of suspended particles (as dust and acid mists) from a gas (...) by charging the particles and precipitating them by applying a strong electric field (as by passing the gas between collecting and discharge electrodes in a precipitator). 2, record 1, English, - electrostatic%20precipitation
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The name "electrostatic" precipitation for this process is open to some criticism on the grounds that even though the electric field is static, the drift of the charged gaseous ions and particles give rise to a current and so the qualification "static" is not strictly applicable. For this reason the term "electro-precipitation" is possibly to be preferred, but, on the other hand, this approximates rather closely to the accepted term "electro-deposition" used for another process, and so might give rise to some confusion. 3, record 1, English, - electrostatic%20precipitation

Opération qui permet d'éliminer les poussières ou brouillards contenus dans un gaz, et qui consiste à communiquer à ces particules une charge électrique et à les soumettre à un champ électrique qui les amène à se déposer sur un collecteur. 2, record 1, French, - pr%C3%A9cipitation%20%C3%A9lectrostatique

La précipitation électrostatique est utilisée industriellement pour des séparations solide-air à liquide-gaz lorsque des fines particules solides ou des petites gouttes sont en suspension dans une phase gazeuse. Pour ce faire, on soumet les particules solides ou liquides en suspension à une décharge ionisante dans un champ électrique statique. 3, record 1, French, - pr%C3%A9cipitation%20%C3%A9lectrostatique
