PARTICULATE SUBSTANCE COMBUSTOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that in a case of always operating a combustion unit configured to combust particulate substances, energy efficiency is poor because excessive power is consumed.SOLUTION: A particulate substance combustor includes: a charge unit configured to charge particulate substances in particulate substance-containing gas; a capture unit provided apart from the charge unit, and configured to capture particulate substances charged by the charged unit; and a combustion unit provided inside the capture unit, and configured to combust particulate substances captured by the capture unit. The particulate substance combustor is configured to control operation timing of the combustion unit according to an operation state of the particulate substance combustor, to thereby combust the particulate substances captured by the capture unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】粒子状物質を燃焼させる燃焼部を常時稼働させる場合、余分に電力を消費するのでエネルギー効率の観点で望ましくない。【解決手段】粒子状物質燃焼装置であって、粒子状物質含有ガス中の粒子状物質を帯電させる帯電部と、帯電部から離間して設けられ、帯電部により帯電された粒子状物質を捕集する捕集部と、捕集部の内部に設けられ、捕集部において捕集された粒子状物質を燃焼させる燃焼部とを備え、粒子状物質燃焼装置の動作状態に応じて燃焼部の動作タイミングを制御することにより、捕集部において捕集された粒子状物質を燃焼させる粒子状物質燃焼装置を提供する。【選択図】図１
