I I This filter, and 559 others like it, form the working center of a giant air cleaning machine called an electrostatic precipitator. They’re electronically charged to attract and trap ash and dust from the plant's furnaces, and then collect them in huge bins. This $5 million system is being installed In the new power plant at Centralia, Washington.When it's completed, it’ll help keep the plant clean. And help keep the air clean, too—as clean as the modern technology of electrostatic precipitation can make it. The electricity you use in your home Is 100% clean. And we’ll continue to seek new and better ways to keep our power plant clean, too. Pacific Power
