1. Preventing sneakage of gases.
   • 1997, William L. Heumann, Industrial air pollution control systems, page 486:

     This is achieved by installing antisneakage baffles in the top, bottom, hoppers, and sides of the precipitator casing.

   • 2000, Wayne T. Davis, Air pollution engineering manual:

     Antisneakage baffles usually are placed to force the sneakage flow to mix with the main gas stream for collection in later sections. But, again, the sneakage flow around the last section has no opportunity to be collected.
