ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of indoor air quality (IAQ) since SARS-CoV-2 may be transmitted through virus-laden aerosols in poorly ventilated spaces. Multiple air cleaning technologies have been developed to mitigate airborne transmission risk and improve IAQ. In-duct bipolar ionization technology is an air cleaning technology that can generate ions for inactivating airborne pathogens and increasing particle deposition and removal while without significant byproducts generated. Many commercial in-duct ionization systems have been developed but their practical performance on pollutant removal and potential formation of byproducts have not been investigated comprehensively. The results in this study showed that the in-duct bipolar ionization technology can significantly improve the particle removal efficiency of the regular filter, while no significant ozone and ion were released to the indoor air. © 2022 17th International Conference on Indoor Air Quality and Climate, INDOOR AIR 2022.
