An experimental-scale electrostatic precipitator (ESP) was built to investigate the influence of temperature and gas media on collection efficiency and energy consumption. High temperature was harmful to the performance of the ESP and had a considerable influence on large particles. The maximum collection efficiency was lower and energy consumption was higher under coal pyrolysis gas media than under air. Two improvement methods, namely, gas media conditioning and positive polarity power supply, were studied in this work. Both methods can improve the performance of high-temperature ESP under coal pyrolysis gas media. The improvement in collection efficiency under the effect of gas conditioning decreased and that under the effect of a positive power supply increased with the increase in temperature. Gas conditioning and positive power supply increased the maximum collection efficiencies of the ESP at 600 °C under coal pyrolysis gas media by 3.0% and 11.8%, respectively. Unlabelled Image • High temperature was harmful to the performance of the ESP. • The performance of ESP in coal pyrolysis gas is inferior to that in air. • Gas conditioning and positive power supply can improve the performance of ESP.
