ABSTRACT
Since 2019, the Coronavirus infection has substantially impacted the worldwide ecosystem. This disease has apparently become airborne and has spread globally. Most daily activities have been curtailed to prevent the spread of the disease. Several measures have been devised by the World Health Organization to control the transmission of disease among humans. However, interior spaces are also crucial because individuals spend most of their time inside. To improve the interior living environment, it is necessary to develop a way to prevent the spread of airborne diseases. To obtain the desired level of efficiency and the requisite level of health for people to stay indoors, it is essential to install an efficient ventilation system. To avoid the transmission of airborne infections in confined areas, the purpose of this work is to examine the impact of the filtering mechanism in a controlled environment provided by Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. According to the study, ventilation, along with MERV13 or above recirculating filters, for instance, must be used (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) This criterion can be met with HEPA or a combination of outside air, filtration, and air-cleaning technology. To reduce the transmission of airborne diseases, the outcome of the study will result in a more effective installation of the mechanism of HVAC systems in interior environments. © 2022, Penerbit Akademia Baru.

ABSTRACT
An IoT-based system for monitoring the quality of the air within a building, which includes a "Smart-Air"air quality sensor on a web server. IoT and cloud storage are used to evaluate the quality of the air at any time and from any place. Smart-Air is a product of the Internet of Things (IoT), a device that uses LTE to broadcast real-time data on air quality to a web server. Today, air pollution is a leading cause of preventable mortality and disease across the world. Pollution has become a major concern all around the globe. The discharge of chemicals or unfriendly compounds has a devastating impact on human, animal, and plant life. This is referred to as pollution. Many studies have been conducted on different air purification techniques because of this. Air purifiers that utilize HEPA filters, activated carbon, and UV light are discussed in this paper. The water and chemicals that an air purifier sprays into the air will spread out contaminants. © 2022 IEEE.
