Abstract
Wet electrostatic precipitator (WESP) collector tube bundles are formed by a procedure in which strips of conductive material are corrugated, intended abutting surfaces of the corrugated strips are abraded, adhesive is applied to the abraded surfaces, multiple ones of the corrugated strips are assembled with corrugation in abutting relationship, and outer panels are assembled with the resulting hexagonal tube bundle.
Claims4
A method of forming a hexagonal tube bundle, which comprises:
- forming strips of conductive material into corrugated strips,
- abrading intended abutting portion of the corrugated strips,
- applying adhesive the abraded mating surface(s), and
- assembling multiple ones of the corrugated strips with corrugations in abutting relationship until the desired bundle size has been achieved.
The method of claim 3, wherein the conductive carbon composite material is a hybrid composite material comprising a blend of carbon fibreglass and/or carbon fibres and thermosetting resin.
