Methods for Determining the Performance and Efficiency Parameters of the Flue-gas Condenser Sedimentation Tank

Flue-gas condenser is used for cleaning the flue-gases in the energy sector. In Latvia, fuel consumption in the household sector is high, so it is planned to introduce this technology in this sector. In the research process of flue-gas condenser, the focus is on reactor testing, rather than on the work of the sedimentation tank – part of the system intended for purification of water from captured particulate matter. In order to ensure good sedimentation process efficiency, it is necessary to know which parameters the process depends on. This study mainly describes the parameters affecting the sedimentation process – dependent indicators and the methods for determining them. The main conclusion is that both methods can be used during the research.
