Objective
Our idea is to develop a novel and effective dust cleaning and collection device to be used both for continuously collecting fine dust particles from products in line production and for periodic cleaning of dust from surfaces of products and production facilities The major barriers are to make this work on even the fine dust particles down to size 05m without touching the surface and without re suspending the dust which imply no use of compressed air which today is the normal way of removing collecting dust.
We will overcome these challenges by specific developments to fulfill our objectives to create:
1 A bond-breaking device based on the combination of an alternating field and polarized air to work on dust particles gt 05m
2. A dust moving component using airflow less than 0 05m s for transporting the dust particles away from the surface in a controlled manner towards the cathode collector
3 A cathode collector to attract the dust for collection within a range of up to 20cm from the cathode
4 An internal dust transport unit made of smaller charge shifting cathodes in a matrix with a nozzle to connect to a disposable unit for safe dust depositing without suspension risk.
Furthermore the Electroclean project will investigate the electrostatic influence on quartz silicate dust type since there is only limited scientific literature dealing with this subject Enhancing the scientific understanding in this field will provide our SME community with access to new valuable knowledge with the potential of creating new innovative products based on new methods for electrostatic bond breaking for cleaning silicate dust particles which is a major problem for industries like semi conductor high voltage fuses optical disc production and electronics.
