APPARATUS FOR TREATING A GAS STREAM

摘要

Apparatus for treating a gas stream comprises a plasma abatement device (10) . A wet electrostatic precipitator (20,22) is provided upstream from the abatement device (10) to remove particulates from the gas stream to inhibit clogging on the inlet of the abatement device. An additional wet electrostatic precipitator (24) may be provided downstream from the abatement device (10) for removing from the gas stream particulates generated within the abatement device (10) .
