Abstract: A system for controlling an electrostatic precipitator includes a computer control system with a computer and a controller in operative communication with an electrostatic precipitator. The computer control system is operative to control performance of the electrostatic precipitator by controlling one or more of: a) a power supply that controls voltage between an electrically grounded vertical plate and a metallic wire electrode in the electrostatic precipitator; b) a first feeder valve and a second feeder valve in a hopper; and c) a power supply to an electrical coil in operative communication with a rapper.

Abstract: A method for operating a combustion chamber is provided. The method includes obtaining a carbon monoxide reading at an exit of the combustion chamber via a carbon monoxide sensor, and deriving an oxygen set point trim based at least in part on the carbon monoxide reading and a carbon monoxide set point via a controller. The method further includes determining a stability status of the combustion chamber via a combustion stability sensor, and adjusting an oxygen set point of the combustion chamber with the oxygen set point trim based at least in part on the stability status via the controller. The oxygen set point defines a desired oxygen level at the exit of the combustion chamber.
