Supplementing Ventilation with Gas-phase Air Cleaning

Duration:

2018-today

Status:

On-going

The international standards for indoor environmental quality (ISO17772-1 and EN16798-1)open up for a possible reduction in required ventilation if gas phase air cleaning is used. This has been followed up by an IEA-EBC Annex 78. This project will work closely with the annex and help disseminate the obtained knowledge.

The objective of this project is to disseminate knowledge on use of gas phase air cleaning instead of ventilation.

Reports and/or seminars/webinars will be used to disseminate on the following topics

Concept for substituting Ventilation with gas phase air cleaning
Technologies
Energy implications
Testing methods
Long term performance
