Electrostatically charged fluidized bed

摘要

An electrostatic fluidized bed apparatus having a housing supporting a removable container defining a fluidizing bed and a plenum chamber and having a porous insulated partition therebetween containing an electrode. When the container is positioned in the housing of the plenum chamber is automatically connected to an air pressure source and the electrode is automatically connected to a high voltage electrical power source and vibration system contained within the housing. The container may be used as a powder storage bin when removed from the housing.
