Fine particulates instead of others create particulate pollution and they are easier to escape from almost all conventional collectors of low-or medium-efficiency. It is of practical significance to take full advantages of particle coagulation by electrostatic forces to upgrade the collentors' performance. This paper investigates the main mechanisms of coagulation, an possiboie trostatic forces existing in the collectors and their effects on the particle coagulation. To make particle kinetic coagulation electrostaticaUy enhanced be a step of the conventional collectors' operations,certain conditions should be created through some modifications of the collectors. Based on that, the authors suggest that a precharger electro-cyclone technique be applied to improve the performance of common cyclones still widely used in many places. And a preliminary semi-industrial test has been carried out at Jiawang Power Station, Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, and the results show that the modified cyclone increases its efficiency from about 800% to. 92-94%.
