Abstract: Herein disclosed is an electrostatic precipitator for removal of corrosive particles from a corrosive laden gas passing therethrough. The electrostatic precipitator comprises a shell having a corrosive resistant lining secured thereto. A corrosive resistant support plate is secured to the shell of the precipitator and first and second sets of juxtaposed corrosive resistant collector electrode tubes are suspended from the support plate. A corrosive resistant top support grid is spaced above the support plate and insulated from the shell and a corrosive resistant bottom guide grid is spaced below the first and second sets of collector electrode tubes. A plurality of corrosive resistant discharge wires are secured between the top support grid and the bottom guide grid and pass substantially through the center of the tubes in the first set.
