MEEP®, which is the unique technology of MHPS-
Fe2O3 6.2 ES, is noticed not only in Japan but also in overseas
MgO 0.57 countries. In China, Taiwan, Korea, and Turkey, full-
scale ESPs with MEEP® have been already delivered.

6. Conclusion
Among various countermeasures of enhancing ESP
performance for high electrical resistivity PM, the
technology of MEEP® to remove the dust layer
completely on the collecting electrode is quite unique,
and it has already had many references of full-scale
installation.
Recently, the first MEEP® has been installed in a
thermal power plant in India, where high ash-content
Indian coals are used, and it has been proved that
MEEP® can be effectively applied for coals whose
PM is not only with high electrical resistivity but also
with very high concentration of PM at inlet flue gas.
