MACHINE FOR SEPARATING AEROSOL PARTICLES

摘要

The present invention relates to a machine for separating aerosol particles using a cylindrical ultrasonic chamber (35) in which the particles agglomerate in the presence of an injected nucleator and using a filter (14) which traps the agglomerated particles. The invention provides that the ultrasonic chamber is preceded by a mixing zone (25) in which a vaporous substance acting as nucleator is injected into the stream of aerosol particles to form a mist, and that a cyclone separator (12, 36) receives the stream coming from the ultrasonic chamber (35) and deposits the separated heavy particles, delivers a portion of the aerosol to the filter (14) and sends the remainder of the aerosol back to the mixing zone (25).
