Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abgasleitung zur Ableitung eines partikelbeinhaltenden Abgases aus einem Heizgerät oder einer Verbrennungsmaschine, einen elektrostatischen Abscheider für eine Abgasreinigungsanlage sowie eine Energieerzeugungsanlage mit einer Feinstaub emittierenden Verbrennungsanlage.The invention relates to an exhaust pipe for discharging a particle-containing exhaust gas from a heater or an internal combustion engine, an electrostatic precipitator for an emission control system and a power generation plant with a particulate matter emitting incinerator.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Abgasleitung, einen elektrostatischen Abscheider und eine Energieerzeugungsanlage mit einer Feinstaub emittierenden Verbrennungsanlage zu schaffen, die eine Ablagerung von Partikeln auf den Elektroden verhindern oder reduzieren, um die Reinigungs- bzw. Wartungsintervalle sowie die Funktionsdauer zu erhöhen.The invention has for its object to provide an exhaust pipe, an electrostatic precipitator and a power plant with a fine dust-emitting combustion system, which prevent or reduce deposition of particles on the electrodes to increase the cleaning or maintenance intervals and the duration of operation.

Die erfindungsgemäße Abgasleitung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass mindestens ein Partikelabweisemittel umfasst ist, welches als thermisch induziertes Bewegungselement ausgebildet ist, das sich bei Temperaturänderung verformt und eine Ablagerung von Partikeln des Abgases an der Kanalwandung zumindest teilweise verhindert und/oder anhaftende Partikel zumindest teilweise von der Kanalwandung löst. Insbesondere wird verhindert, dass Partikel sich dauerhaft ablagern. Darüber hinaus kann das Partikelabweisemittel das Ablagern von Partikeln an weiteren Komponenten, beispielsweise Komponenten eines elektrostatischen Abscheiders, wirksam reduzieren.

Figure imgaf001
The exhaust pipe according to the invention is characterized in that at least one Partikelabweisemittel is formed, which is formed as a thermally induced moving member which deforms with temperature change and a deposition of particles of the exhaust gas at the channel wall at least partially prevented and / or adhering particles at least partially from the channel wall solves. In particular, it prevents particles from settling permanently. In addition, the particle repelling agent can effectively reduce the deposition of particles on other components, for example components of an electrostatic precipitator.
