In air filtration, for creating healthy indoor air, there is an intrinsic conflict between high
filtration efficiency and low wind pressure drop. In this study, we overcame this conflict by …

Ambient ultrafine particles (UFPs) cause severe health threats, and UFPs can transport in
indoor environments through building envelopes. In building HVAC (heating, ventilation …

Air-quality control remains a major environmental concern as polluted air is a threat to public
safety and health in major industrialized cities. To filter pollutants, fibrous filters employing …

Electrostatic assisted air (EAA) coarse filters combine the benefits of electrostatic
precipitators and fibrous filters, achieving high filtration efficiency for submicron particulate …

In this study, we demonstrated an antimicrobial nanoparticle-coated electrostatic (ES) air
filter. Antimicrobial natural-product Sophora flavescens nanoparticles were produced using …

Efficient particle removal technology with minimal pressure drop is urgently needed for both
air purification and energy conservation. We developed a compact electrostatically assisted …

Air purification can effectively capture particulate matter and reduce the health risk from
indoor air pollution. However, it remains a challenge to fabricate filtration materials with high …

Particulate matter (PM) from ever-increasing industrialization poses a great public health
risk. Although fiber-based filters are used effectively to block PM, filters with high packing …

Here, we demonstrate a new strategy of air filtration based on an Al-coated conductive
fibrous filter for high efficient nanoparticulate removals. The conductive fibrous filter was …

Fibrous air filters are widely equipped air freshening material in individual protective masks
and air purifiers to regulate air quality and protect people from health hazards. To further …
