Abstract
The report is an evaluation of a novel air pollution control system developed by the Braxton Corporation. The alternating velocity precipitator, or sonic agglomerator, is designed to decrease the number and increase the size of particles in a gas stream by agglomeration induced by a standing sound wave through which the aerosol moves. A prototype alternating velocity precipitator was tested to determine its basic performance characteristics and to evaluate the effect of adding water and/or steam to the systems performance. The particle size distributions of the fine particles at both the inlet and outlet of the sonic agglomerator were determined with Anderson cascade impactors.
