In the January 2021 edition of International Cement Review, B&W electrostatic precipitator guru John Knapik offers a solution to further reduce particulate matter on marginally performing ESPs.
Newer top-rapped precipitator designs offer distinct advantages over tumbling hammer designs for improving performance and maintainability. The article highlights these advantages and how to achieve them through a conversion. Having performed more than 50 tumbling hammer ESP rebuilds of this kind– B&W Environmental is well positioned to help the cement and other industries meet challenging emissions limits.
Allow us to be your "ESPs" for your ESP - that is... "Excellent Service Professionals" for your Electrostatic Precipitator. We can help you evaluate current operation conditions and offer recommendations to keep your precipitator performing at optimal levels.
The Babcock & Wilcox global service team is expanding so we can better, and more quickly, service your electrostatic precipitator. This includes dedicated service resources located in Europe. Now you have quick and cost-effective access to extensive field experience, quality, innovation, and timely execution...saving you both time and money.

Our combination of innovative products include:
Voltage Dividers
Voltage dividers can be used to evaluate and troubleshoot ESP performance. Designed to maximize the functionality of existing voltage controls, they allow generation of V-I curves, operation of undervoltage alarms, or accurately evaluate ESP performance.
Variable inductance-current limiting reactor (VI-CLR)
This patented technology increases conduction time when the power supply in a field is operating below the rated limits of the T/R set. Its enhanced conduction boosts average current, average voltage and corona power. B&W’s VI-CLR helps achieve improved collection efficiency through reduced wave distortion, producing higher average power levels and increased migration velocity of dust toward the collecting plates.
For hardware products communicating serially, B&W offers several core software applications for monitoring and control. We also offer several programs that integrate our software with existing plant control systems (such as a PI system, DCS or OPC).
