Very small particles, such as dust, produced by combustion engines

Microscopic air-borne material which could be natural or could be man-made such as from the combustion of fossil fuels which may be harmful or even toxic

Particulate matter is the term for solid or liquid particles found in the air. Electrostatic precipitators can remove more than 99% of particulates from the flue gas. The system works by creating an electrical field to create a charge on particles which are then attracted by collection plates. Other removal methods include fabric filters and wet particulate scrubbers.
