An electrostatic precipitator is disclosed. The electrostatic precipitator includes an ionization unit configured to generate ions and a dust collection unit configured to electrically collect dust to which the ions are attached. The ionization unit is an ionizer that applies a predetermined voltage to an electrode needle to cause a corona discharge to generate the ions having the same polarity as a polarity of the applied voltage. The dust collection unit includes a high-voltage electrode disposed having a plurality of gaps for passing the dust to which the ions are attached, and a dust collection board disposed at a rear stage of the high-voltage electrode. A polarity of the voltage applied to the electrode needle of the ionization unit and the polarity of the voltage applied to the high-voltage electrode are set to the same polarity.

An air disinfection device includes a shell having entry and exhaust ports, a power supply installed above the shell, and a dust collecting cylinder installed on the shell, connected to a negative electrode of the power supply, and having air inlet and outlet. The air inlet and the air outlet are communicated with the entry port and the exhaust port, respectively. The conductive rod has one end installed above the shell and connected to a positive electrode of the power supply, and the other end located in the dust collecting cylinder and close to the air inlet. An arrangement direction of the conductive rod is consistent with an axis direction of the dust collecting cylinder. The power supply provides high-voltage current to the conductive rod to form a symmetrically distributed high-voltage electrostatic field inside the dust collecting cylinder to sterilize and disinfect air passing through the dust collecting cylinder.
