On appelle dépoussiéreur électrique ou électrofiltre un appareil dans lequel les particules solides ou liquides sont captées par l’intermédiaire de forces électriques. Les premiers essais de dépoussiérage dit «électrostatique» liés essentiellement aux noms de Lodge et Cottrell datent de 1890 [...] Nous verrons que le phénomène n’est pas électrostatique et que cette dénomination doit être abandonnée. 8, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9poussi%C3%A9reur%20%C3%A9lectrique
