German term or phrase: Kiesbett-Elektrofilter (EFB-Filter)
Ich habe einen Link ausfindig gemacht, der genau diesen Text in deutscher Sprache wiedergibt. Würde ich hierfür eine (offizielle) englische Fassung finden, wäre mir sehr geholfen. Einsteilen würde es aber auch schon die Übersetzung des Begriffs bzw. der Abkürzung tun ;-)

Eine Sonderform der filternden Abscheider ist der **Kiesbett-Elektrofilter (EFB-Filter)**. Von der Bauart her ähnelt er einem Schüttschichtfilter. Die Staubpartikel werden bei diesem Filter mit einem Corona-Ionisierer elektrisch aufgeladen. Beim Durchtritt der Abluft durch einen Kiesbettfilter werden die elektrisch aufge-ladenen Staubpartikel an den entgegengesetzt geladenen Kieseln niederge-schlagen. Die Kiesel werden kontinuierlich aus dem Filter abgeführt, vom Staub befreit und wieder dem Abscheider zugeführt. Mit diesem Filter werden Gesamtstaub-Reingaskonzentrationen unter 10 mg/m³ eingehalten
