  • Abstract
    Negative polarity is used in electrical precipitation because it is generally believed to provide higher voltages than positive polarity, at least for the electronegative gases found in most applications. Theoretical and experimental evidence to the contrary is given here. However, there are some difficulties to be overcome before practical application of positive polarity is possible.
