Abstract
Filtration has long been integral to protecting people, processes, and equipment, but today’s environmental and economic pressures demand that familiar technologies be reimagined for a new era. Mechanical filtration and activated carbon, once primarily used for equipment protection and industrial emission control, are now being innovatively applied to address evolving challenges in the built environment. Examples include electrostatic/polarized media that deliver higher efficiency with lower pressure drop and longer service life, and adaptations of activated carbon into forms that minimize system resistance and offer extended performance life. These designs allow engineers and designers to reduce energy use, extend filter life, and decrease waste sent to landfills. They also enable alternative ventilation strategies, such as cleaning recirculated indoor air rather than relying solely on large volumes of outdoor air dilution, a practice that is increasingly energy-intensive and less effective in areas with declining outdoor air quality.
This presentation will explore how innovations in established particulate and gas-phase technologies support decarbonization, sustainability, and resilience goals while safeguarding occupant health and comfort amid emerging environmental challenges.
