Popis: Electrostatic precipitator is the most efficient device used for the removal of fly ash particles from the flue gases produced by coal-fired boilers in power plants. However, the fractional collection efficiency of electrostatic precipitators steeply decreases for particles smaller than 1 μm, and particles in the size range of 200–500 nm are removed with lower collection efficiency than those outside this range. These particles are dangerous to humans and have detrimental environmental effects, so there is a need for novel more efficient technologies for their control. One of the answers to this challenge is the two-stage electrostatic precipitator, in which the electrostatic charging and precipitation processes have been separated. The PM2.5 particles (of a size
