Abstract For the past decades, the flue gas emitted from Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator, Power Plant, and various industries are a permanent problem for the environment and has been affecting human life. Many flue gas filtration devices have been emerging out over the years. Although the Electrostatic Precipitator was an appropriate device due to high filtration efficiency, little pressure drop and energy efficiency, the cost and design of the Electrostatic Precipitator is a major restriction for manufacturers and end-users. With recent advances in technology,designing a cost-effective and less complex electrostatic precipitator has become mandatory. This article aims to design and develop a solar-powered cost-effective Needle-Plate typeelectrostatic precipitator which includes a static power converters and high voltage Transformer-Rectifier (T-R) set with an input voltage as 230V AC, output voltage as 80kV Direct Current (DC) and output current of40mA for mitigation of Flue gas emissions exhaust from Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator. The analysis of flue gas at ESP inlet and outlet has been performed using Ecotech stack sampler and flue gas analyzer. The obtained experimental results are validated with Emission standards provided in the Solid Waste Management rules book-India 2016.

The emission characteristics of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) were evaluated from a grate-type municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI). The stack flue gas, fly ash and bottom ash samples were sampled and analyzed. Results indicated that the flue gas, fly ash and bottom ash presented their mean dioxin levels of 0.0723 ng I-TEQ/Nm3, 0.614 ng I-TEQ/g and 13.33 ng I-TEQ/kg respectively. The PCDD/Fs congener patterns, in flue gas, fly ash and bottom ash, showed large similarities in both concentration and I-TEQ profiles. The de novo synthesis plays a dominant role in the low-temperature post-combustion zone.
