摘要
This study focuses on the design, fabrication, and operation of an integrated air pollution control (APC) device composed of a cyclone equipped with an activated carbon for effective reduction of particulate matter (PM) emissions. The effect of incorporating activated carbon into the cyclone is mainly evaluated in terms of the pressure drop during operation and the corresponding PM removal efficiency. Results showed that the fabricated APC device is capable of reducing the PM content from emissions while maintaining a low to moderate operating pressure drop. In addition, the PM reduction is statistically significant at 0.25 significance level with the co-benefit of reducing the pressure drop four times of the original value.
