<p>The present invention relates to a process for improving the performance of an electrostatic precipitator (30) through which a combustion effluent (14) is passed. The inventive process generally involves introducing urea, a urea hydrolysate or another nitrogenous composition into the effluent under conditions effective to form ammonia and produce an ammonia containing effluent; and passing the ammonia-containing effluent through an electrostatic precipitator wherein the performance of the electrostatic precipitator is improved by the presence of ammonia in the effluent.</p> |
