Introduction to HEPA Filter Characteristics
In general, laminar flow refers to the layering of indoor air. Efficient air filters, such as those used in cleanrooms, allow dust particles to move within this laminar flow. This means that dust particles are carried by the air. In cleanrooms and controlled environments within air conditioning systems, efficient air filters create a non-laminar flow, meaning that suspended particles in the air ...

Model-Measurement Consistency and Limits of Bioaerosol Abundance Over the Continental United States
Abstract. Due to low concentrations and chemical complexity, in-situ observations of bioaerosol are geographically and temporally sparse, and this limits the accuracy of current emissions inventories. In this study, we apply a new methodology, including corrections for misidentification of mineral dust, to measurements of single particles over four airborne sampling campaigns to derive vertical ...

Keep your air clean with Wet Dust Collectors
Wet dust collectors use liquid — often but not always simple water — to capture and separate dust, mist, fumes, and other particulate matter from a stream of flowing gas — often but not always simple air. Some wet dust collectors spray liquid in a sheet across the stream of gas; others bubble the gas through the liquid. Other more complex hybrid versions that add other ...
