Description: The electrical resistivity and collection efficiency were determined for swine dust to investigate the use of electrostatic precipitation in removing airborne dust from swine housing air. For comparison, four other organic dusts were used in the resistivity and collection experiments: flour, icing sugar, corn starch, and milk powder. The electrical resistivity for each of the dusts was within the "medium" resistivity range. An electrostatic precipitator collected the flour, icing sugar, com starch, milk powder, and swine housing dust with mass collection efficiencies of: 92.5%, 23.9%, 71.0%, 45.7%, and 67.3%,respectively. Foreach of the five dusts, the particleslessthan 1 pm, were collected with less efficiency than particles greater than 1 urn.
