This study examines the charge reduction characteristics of charged particles using a neutralizer to prevent accidents from electrostatic discharge and enhance process efficiency. The research measures the number of charges, elimination efficiency, and penetration rate under various voltage polarity conditions with a DC-type bipolar electrostatic eliminator. The results indicate that electrostatic neutralization is most effective under negative high voltage (-HV) conditions, while the mesh penetration rate increases and charge accumulation occurs under positive high voltage (+HV) conditions. Furthermore, partial charge neutralization is observed under both positive and negative high voltage (±HV) conditions due to the sequential emission of positive and negative ions. This study quantifies the mitigation of electrostatic charge using a neutralizer, offering insights for optimizing filtration systems and improving process stability. Future research will refine electrostatic control mechanisms by considering additional parameters such as particle size, material properties, and flow conditions.
