Abstract
The present invention relates to an electrostatic precipitator (2) which comprises mutually adjacent discharge electrodes (3a) and collecting electrodes (4a), and a voltage source which delivers to the electrodes a d.c. current of high voltage so as to generate in the space (5) between the electrodes an electrostatic field which imparts an electrical charge to the solid particles and/or liquid droplets entering the space (5), such that the particles/droplets are attracted primarily to the collecting electrodes (4a). A plurality of electrodes are formed and positioned in a manner to provide a self-supporting structure which is flexurally rigid in all directions. The electrodes are positioned with the aid of beams (20, 21, 22) to define the aforementioned space (5), together with wall sections (2a, 16).
