electrostatic precipitator

Device that removes dust or other particles from air and other gases by electrostatic means. An electric discharge is passed through the gas, giving the impurities a negative electric charge. Positively charged plates are then used to attract the charged particles and remove them from the gas flow. Such devices are attached to the chimneys of coal-burning power stations to remove ash particles.
