Dust collector
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-013051
A system used to enhance air quality by collecting dust and other impurities from air or gas. It operates by drawing air through a filter or using electrostatic precipitation to separate particulate matter. These devices are commonly employed in industrial settings to meet air emission standards.
