Application of methods for evaluating air cleaner performance.
Author(s) : NELSON P. R., et al.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Reports a study performed to develop a new mathematical model to assess the effectiveness and to evaluate the ability of one prototype and two commercial air cleaners to improve indoor air quality. Describes the materials and methods used. Supplies the results and analyses them. Concludes that air cleaners that incorporate methods such as sorption for the removal of indoor air contaminants appear to be more effective for the removal of gas-phase compounds than air cleaners that rely solely on ozone generation or filtration. States that ideally, an air cleaner should combine effective means for the removal of both gases and particles from indoor air.
