Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Electrostatic precipitator is most widely used in thermal power plant.
Statement II: Electrostatic precipitator in thermal power plant removes ionising radiations
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
Boh Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Statement I incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Answers (1)
The correct answer is Option 3) Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Statement I: Electrostatic precipitators are indeed widely used in thermal power plants. They are used to control and reduce air pollution by removing particulate matter (such as dust and ash) from the flue gases emitted during the combustion of fossil fuels.
Statement II: However, electrostatic precipitators are not used to remove ionizing radiations in thermal power plants. Ionizing radiation refers to radiation with enough energy to remove tightly bound electrons from atoms, causing them to become charged ions. Electrostatic precipitators are not designed to capture or control ionizing radiation; their main function is the removal of particulate matter from the exhaust gases.
