The article shows ways of increasing the degree of purification of gases by electrostatic precipitators (ESР). Possible mechanical problems with the ESP should be addressed and optimization of high-voltage power units should be conducted first. Further, the impact of a range of parameters on the degree of gas cleaning and dust discharge from the ESP is illustrated. An example illustrates the influence of changing a number of ESP parameters at an operating power plant on dust emissions from the ESP.
