The wet electrostatic precipitator mainly uses honeycomb conductive fiberglass bundles for equipment production and design. Compared with square tube wet electrostatic precipitators, honeycomb tube wet electrostatic precipitators have a larger dust collection area and stronger dust removal capacity in the same space or size.

Applying tens of thousands of volts of direct current high voltage between the anode and cathode wires of a wet electrostatic precipitator, a corona layer is generated around the corona wire under the action of a strong electric field. The air in the corona layer undergoes avalanche ionization, producing a large number of negative ions and a small amount of positive ions. This process is called corona discharge; The dust (mist) particles entering the wet electrostatic precipitator with the flue gas collide with these positive and negative ions and become charged. The charged dust (mist) particles move towards the anode due to the Coulomb force of the high-voltage electrostatic field; After reaching the anode, the charge carried by it is released, and the dust (mist) particles are collected by the anode. The collected dust forms a water film and is separated from the flue gas by gravity or flushing to the lower liquid tank or absorption tower.
