A New Method of Removing Fine Particulates Using an Electrostatic Force

초록

Many studies have found that the concentration of fine particulates in the atmosphere has increased. In particular, when using the bus, the situation in which people are exposed to relatively high concentrations of fine particulates is increasing. The purpose of this study is to reduce exposure to these potentially harmful particulates by introducing open shelters at outdoor bus stops. In order to use it as an outdoor fine particulates reduction device, a brush filter using electrostatic force (EF) was used on an experimental scale and the generation of electrostatic force, according to the material, was examined. As electrostatic force was generated, the fine particulates collection performance was about 90% efficiency. In addition, it was confirmed that the efficiency of each particle size was improved by 57% through structural improvement. Finally, through experimentation, it was confirmed that the brush module can be used for about 70 days.
