Abstract:
1. A method of collecting a plurality of particles from a particle entrained air stream using a vane electrostatic precipitator, comprising the step of directing air flow in multiple directions in the vane electrostatic precipitator; wherein the vane electrostatic precipitator comprises a first column of adjustable vane assemblies and a second column of adjustable vane assemblies; wherein the first column of adjustable vane assemblies is parallel to the second column of adjustable vane assemblies, and wherein the first column and second column of adjustable vane assemblies have different operating angles such that the first column of adjustable vane assemblies directs air flow towards opposite walls of the vane electrostatic precipitator and the second column of adjustable vane assemblies directs air flow towards a center of the vane electrostatic precipitator; wherein the first column of adjustable vane assemblies and the second column of adjustable vane assemblies form a single stage counter flow unit.
