Flue pipe systems and methods of purifying flue gases

A method of purifying a flue gas, the method comprising:

• flowing a flue gas through a flue pipe comprising a nonconductive material, the flue pipe defining a fluid flow path through an interior volume, the flue pipe having an interior surface defining the interior volume and an exterior surface opposite the interior surface;
• reacting the flue gas with a first electrical circuit to form an aerosol mist, the first electrical circuit comprising a first electrode, a third electrode, and a voltage supply;
• contacting the flue gas with a second electrical circuit to form a flow of ions along the interior surface of the pipe, the second electrical circuit comprising a second electrode, the third electrode, and the voltage supply;
• and
• filtering the aerosol mist through a particle filter disposed in the interior volume of the flue pipe, the particle filter comprising a mineral wool.

A method of purifying a flue gas, the method comprising:

• flowing a flue gas comprising one or more of an oxide, a dioxide, or a trioxide through a flue pipe comprising a nonconductive material, the flue pipe defining a fluid flow path through an interior volume, the flue pipe having an interior surface defining the interior volume and an exterior surface opposite the interior surface;
• reacting the flue gas with a streamer corona discharge to form an aerosol mist comprising an acidic fluid;
• contacting the flue gas with a flow of ions along the interior surface of the pipe thereby increasing a flow rate of the flue gas;
• and
• filtering the aerosol mist through a particle filter disposed in the interior volume of the flue pipe, the particle filter comprising a mineral wool configured to entrap the aerosol mist and neutralize the acidic fluid.
