Q
  • _______ use the force of gravity to remove solid particles.
  • The gas stream enters a chamber where the velocity of the gas is reduced.
  • Large particles drop out of the gas and are recollected in hoppers.
  • Because settling chambers are effective in removing only larger particles, they are
    used in conjunction with a more efficient control device.

Q
  • The general principle of inertia separation is that the particulate laden gas is forced to change direction.
  • As gas changes direction, the inertia of the particles causes them to continue in the original direction and be separated from the gas stream.
  • The walls of the ____ narrow toward the bottom of the unit, allowing the particles to be collected in a hopper.
  • The cleaner air leaves the ____ through the top of the
    chamber, flowing upward in a spiral vortex, formed within a downward moving spiral.
  • ____ are efficient in removing large particles but are not as efficient with smaller particles. For this reason, they are used with other particulate control devices.

Q
  • Centrifugal force is utilized to separate the particulate matter.
  • It can remove 10 to 50 μm particle size.
  • Used mostly in industries
  • A ____ consists of a cylindrical shell, conical base, dust
    hopper and an inlet where the dust-laden gas enters tangentially.
  • Under the influence of the centrifugal force generated by the spinning gas, the solid particles are thrown to the wall of the equipment as the gas spirals upward at the inside of the cone.
  • The particles slide down the walls of the cone and into the hopper. The operating efficiency depends on the magnitude of the centrifugal force exerted on the particles.
  • The greater the centrifugal force, the greater the spreading efficiency.

    and must pass through perforations in
    each plate as it flows countercurrent
    to the descending water stream.
  • Collection efficiency increases as the
    diameter of the perforations
    decreases.
  • A cut diameter, that collected with
    50% efficiency, of about μm
    aerodynamic diameter can be
    achieved with 3.2-mm-diameter holes
