[0002] As a crucial part of energy supply, the smoke and dust emissions generated during the production process of coal-fired power plants have always been a key concern in the field of environmental protection. To effectively purify the smoke and dust emitted from coal-fired boilers, electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) are widely used in coal-fired power plants. ESPs achieve corona charging and dust collection by matching corona wires to the anode. The cathode wire typically uses a single barbed or needle-like wire, which, together with the anode plate, forms an electric field to charge and collect the smoke and dust.
[0003] However, when traditional electrostatic precipitators use a single type of barbed wire or needle wire as the cathode wire, the dust removal efficiency is often low. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0025] This invention provides a high-efficiency electrostatic precipitator that utilizes cathode wire cascades. By improving the electrostatic precipitator, the dust removal efficiency of the electrostatic precipitator is significantly increased.
[0026] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0027] Relational terms such as “first” and “second” are used merely to distinguish one component from another that has the same name, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or order between the components.
[0028] In traditional electrostatic precipitators, each electric field typically uses a single barbed wire or needle-punched wire as the cathode wire to corona charge the flue dust. Under the influence of the electric field, the charged dust is driven to the anode plate and then falls into the ash hopper for collection. However, because the flue dust entering the electrostatic precipitator contains ammonium bisulfate, which has strong adhesive properties, the dust easily coats the cathode wire, weakening the discharge performance and, in severe cases, causing corona blockage.
[0029] In electrostatic precipitators, barbed wire and needle-punched wire, used as cathode wires, do indeed possess strong discharge capabilities, contributing to the charging of dust particles. However, when the electric field path is short, the residence time of dust particles in the electric field is correspondingly shortened. This may cause some charged dust particles to escape from the electric field before reaching the anode plate, thus affecting dust removal efficiency. The electric field path refers to the path length of dust particles from the inlet to the outlet in the electric field. Residence time is the duration of time dust particles reside in the electric field, equal to the ratio of the electric field length to the electric field velocity. When the electric field path is short, the residence time of dust particles in the electric field decreases, which may cause some dust particles to be discharged from the electric field before they are fully charged or before reaching the anode plate in time.
[0030] In other words, traditional electrostatic precipitators mostly use a single barbed wire or needle wire as the cathode wire for charging the flue gas. However, this single cathode wire can cause problems such as dust entrapment and dust escape, resulting in low dust removal efficiency of traditional electrostatic precipitators.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the electric field distribution inside the electrostatic precipitator in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a type of cathode wire in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 3 yes Figure 2 Top view; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the spherical line in an embodiment of this utility model.
[0032] As shown in the figure, the cathode wire cascade high-efficiency electrostatic precipitator includes a flue gas inlet, an anode plate 600, and a front electric field 100, a middle electric field 200, and a final electric field 300 distributed sequentially along the flue gas direction. The flue gas enters the front electric field 100, the middle electric field 200, and the final electric field 300 sequentially after entering the flue gas inlet before exiting the electrostatic precipitator. That is, the front electric field 100 is the first area through which the flue gas flows after entering the electrostatic precipitator, then the flue gas enters the middle electric field located behind the front electric field 100, and finally exits the electrostatic precipitator through the final electric field 300.
[0033] Within the front electric field 100, a type I cathode wire 401 is installed, which is a barbed wire. Within the middle electric field 200, a type II cathode wire 402 is installed, which is a needle-like wire. Within the final electric field 300, a type III cathode wire 403 is installed, which is a spherical wire.
[0034] By adopting the technical solution of this application, different types of cathode wires are set in different electric fields within the electrostatic precipitator, thereby significantly improving the dust removal efficiency of the electrostatic precipitator. Specifically, since the front electric field 100 is directly connected to the flue gas inlet, the flue dust entering the front electric field 100 contains a relatively high content of ammonium bisulfate. By setting barbed wires within the front electric field 100, the degree to which high-concentration dust and ammonia escape encapsulate the cathode wires can be reduced, mitigating or preventing corona sealing of the cathode wires. This is due to the special structural design of the barbed wires; the corona end 500 of the barbed wires can effectively prevent dust encapsulation. In addition, the barbed wires have the characteristics of low corona initiation voltage and very strong corona discharge, which can be well adapted to the environment within the front electric field 100.
[0035] The barbed wire has a corona-tipped end 500, which is shaped like an "8". This effectively prevents the corona-tipped end 500 from being wrapped. In addition, the barbed wire can also be a serrated barbed wire, a V-shaped barbed wire, a cross-shaped barbed wire, or a wound tube type barbed wire, etc. Those skilled in the art can choose the type of barbed wire in this application as needed.
[0036] By using spherical wires in the final electric field 300, the problem of comprehensive dust collection from all charged dust particles in the preceding electric field is solved. This increases the dust collection capacity of the anode plate 600, making a final effort for dust collection in the electrostatic precipitator and ultimately achieving the best emission performance. The Class III cathode wire 403 has a corona end 500, which is spherical in structure. Using cathode wires with this structure significantly increases the dust collection effect within the final electric field 300, further improving its dust removal performance.
[0037] In an alternative approach, to further increase the dust collection efficiency of the final electric field 300, the flow velocity of the flue gas within the final electric field 300 can be reduced. To reduce the flow velocity of the flue gas within the final electric field 300, the number of electrode plates 600 can be reduced.
[0038] The intermediate electric field 200 is located in the middle of the front electric field 100 and the final electric field 300. Setting the needle wire in the intermediate electric field 200 can reduce or solve the phenomenon that the front electric field 100 does not charge the dust sufficiently, and some dust flows into the final electric field 300 before it has a chance to be charged, which increases the charging pressure of the final electric field 300.
[0039] In some alternative implementations, the intermediate electric field 200 includes a first-class field section 201 and a second-class field section 202, with the first-class field section 201 being closer to the front electric field 100 than the second-class field section 202. That is, the first-class field section 201 is connected to the front electric field 100, and the second-class field section 202 is connected to the final electric field 300. In the flue gas flow direction, the first-class field section 201 is located upstream of the second-class field section 202.
[0040] The first distance s1 between the discharge tip of the Class II cathode wire 402 disposed in Class I field section 201 and the corresponding anode plate 600 is less than the second distance s2 between the discharge tip of the Class II cathode wire 402 disposed in Class II field section 202 and the corresponding anode plate 600. In other words, the discharge tip of the cathode wire disposed in Class I field section 201 is closer to the corresponding anode plate 600 than the discharge tip of the cathode wire disposed in Class II field section 202. Here, the discharge tip of the cathode wire refers to the sharp portion of the cathode wire used to generate corona discharge, i.e., the discharge position of the aforementioned corona end 500.
[0041] In another example, the Class II field section 202 includes at least two sub-sections 202a, each of which is also provided with a Class II cathode line 402. The discharge tip of the Class II cathode line 402 located in each sub-section 202a is equidistant from the anode plate 600 on the corresponding side.
[0042] Of course, a Class I field segment 201 can also include one or more sub-segments 202a. In addition to having two sub-segments 202a, a Class II field segment 202 can also have one or more sub-segments 202a.
[0043] Therefore, based on the electric field charge intensity requirements of different areas of the electric field 200, the step-type arrangement of Class II cathode wires 402 can effectively charge and collect dust, preventing dust from escaping without being charged.
[0044] Specifically, two Class II cathode wires 402 are arranged between two adjacent anode plates 600 within the Class I field section 201. Two Class II cathode wires 402 are also arranged between two adjacent anode plates 600 within the Class II field section 202. This ensures the discharge area range and guarantees the dust removal efficiency of the dust collector.
[0045] Optionally, a type I cathode wire 401 is disposed between two adjacent anode plates 600 within the front electric field 100. The type I cathode wire 401 forms two discharge tips for one anode plate 600, which can also reduce the cost of the dust collector.
[0046] In the above embodiment, the discharge tips of each cathode wire are distributed forward and backward along a direction perpendicular to the flue gas flow. This ensures the dust removal efficiency of the dust collector.
[0047] The dust removal system, which includes the aforementioned high-efficiency electrostatic precipitator utilizing cathode wire cascades, also includes a desulfurization and denitrification device. The flue gas inlet of the high-efficiency electrostatic precipitator utilizing cathode wire cascades is connected to the flue gas outlet of the desulfurization and denitrification device.
[0048] By adopting the technical solution in this application, efficient collection of dust in flue gas can be achieved.

The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the core ideas of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
