Electrospun Polyurethane/β-Cyclodextrin Composite Membranes for Aerosol Filtration and Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from the Air
Introduction: Electrospun nanomembranes have been used for effective air filtration due to their potential for active surface modification. This study aims to synthesize polyurethane (PU) nanofiber membrane incorporated with different amounts of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) to capture volatile organic compounds (VOCs) along with aerosol filtration from the air. Material and Methods: First, PU was sy...
متن کاملFungal Outbreaks and Infection Prevention During Demolition: Influence of High-Efficiency Particulate Air Filtration.
TO THE EDITOR—We read with interest the article by Kanamori et al [1] who reviewed fungal outbreaks linked to construction and renovation of healthcare settings. The authors selected 49 studies that reported cases of fungal outbreaks related to hospital construction, renovation, or demolition. The authors found that construction-related fungal cases seem to be in decline as only 3 published stu...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotube Membranes: Synthesis, Properties, and Future Filtration Applications
Over the course of the past decade, there has been growing interest in the development of different types of membranes composed of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), including buckypapers and composite materials, for an ever-widening range of filtration applications. This article provides an overview of how different types of CNT membranes are prepared and the results obtained from investigations into th...
متن کاملPilot study of high-performance air filtration for classroom applications.
UNLABELLED A study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of three air purification systems in reducing the exposure of children to air contaminants inside nine classrooms of three Southern California schools. Continuous and integrated measurements were conducted to monitor the indoor and outdoor concentrations of ultrafine particles (UFPs), fine and coarse particulate matter (PM2.5 and...
متن کاملEfficiency of Electrocoagulation, Sedimentation and Filtration Hybrid Process in Removing Chemical Oxygen Demand and Turbidity from Carwash Industrial Wastewater: Optimization by Response Surface Methodology
Background and purpose: Nowadays, rapid growth of car wash industries has led to a demand for wastewater reclamation. In this study, the hybrid process including electrocoagulation/flotation, sedimentation, and filtration were used in treatment of real carwash wastewater. Materials and methods: In this research, the sample was first entered into the ECF reactor, then entered the retention tank...
