ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an electrostatic atomizing device and a process thereof for the formation of electrostatically charged droplets having an average diameter of less than about 1 millimeter for a liquid having a low conductivity wherein the device includes a cell having a chamber disposed therein, a discharge spray mechanism in communication with the cell, the liquid in the chamber being transported to the discharge spray mechanism and atomized into droplets, and a mechanism for passing a charge through the liquid within the chamber, wherein the charge is sufficient to generate free excess charge in the liquid within the chamber.
