Ultrafine Particulate & Acid Mist Capture for Hazardous Industrial Exhaust
The WESP Series is engineered to capture sub-micron particulates (0.1–5 percent), acid mists, sticky tars, and heavy metal aerosols that conventional dry filters cannot handle. By utilizing high-voltage electrostatic charging combined with continuous water film flushing, the system prevents secondary dust re-entrainment and completely eliminates spark-ignition risks in volatile environments.
Performance Highlights
Explosion & Spark Safety: Saturated wet-state operation eliminates fire and deflagration risks when processing flammable fumes, tars, and organic dusts.
Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Built with high-grade 316L Stainless Steel (or FRP options) to withstand severe sulfuric, nitric, and hydrofluoric acid gas streams.
Ultra-Low Emissions: Achieves up to 99.9% filtration efficiency, maintaining final outlet particulate levels at < 5mg/Nm^3.
Zero Media Clogging: Continuous automated plate washing clears sticky condensables without manual downtime or filter media replacements.

How Does a WEP Work?
Gas Inlet: Polluted gas enters the WESP.
Ionization Zone: High-voltage electrodes create an electrical field that charges fine particles and aerosols.
Collection Zone: Charged particles migrate to collecting tubes or plates.
Water Film Rinsing: Continuous flushing removes captured pollutants, preventing buildup.
Clean Gas Outlet: Clean, moisture-neutralized gas exits the system.
WESP works effectively even with high humidity, corrosive compounds, and sticky pollutants.
