Prediction of HEPA Filter Collection Efficiency with a Bimodal Fiber Size Distribution.

HEPA EXHAUST FILTER IV HEPA SUPPLY FILTER I / All

A microbiological survey of the effectiveness of class II (laminar flow) 'safety' cabinets found in the UK in the last six years is recorded. Only two of the nine units tested approached the containment of aerosols achieved by a good class I (exhaust protective) cabinet. The others were potentially hazardous if used with pathogenic material. The National Sanitation Foundation and the British St...

Bimodal Size-distribution of Bainite Plates

There are two well-known phenomena associated with the bainite reaction, both of which have been exploited here to enhance the mechanical behaviour of steel. Firstly, the bainite plate size decreases as the transformation temperature is reduced. Secondly, it is bad to have large regions of untransformed austenite in the microstructure; this is because they can transform, under the influence of ...

Air Pollution Technology Fact Sheet: Paper/Nonwoven Filter- High Efficiency Particle Air (HEPA) Filter

3. Applicable Pollutants: Submicron Particulate Matter (PM) greater than or equal to 0.3 micrometer (μm) in aerodynamic diameter, and PM greater than or equal to 0.12 μm in aerodynamic diameter that is chemically, biologically, or radioactively toxic; hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that are in particulate form, such as most metals (mercury is the notable exception, as a significant portion of ...

Prediction of effect of fine particle removal on efficiency of a spiral circuit by size-by-size partition curves

Partition curves are widely used to determine the spiral separator efficiency. In this work, the partition curves were used in order to investigate the particle transportation to concentrate and tailing streams. Simulation of fine particle removal using the size-by-size partition curves showed that the recovery of gangue particles to concentrate can decrease 8.7%. It also showed that the recove...
