Experimental investigation of an innovative complex air cleaner efficiency ; Eksperimentinis inovatyvaus kompleksinio oro valymo įrenginio efektyvumo tyrimas
Indoor air quality is an influential factor in human health. To achieve a standard of comfort, it is necessary to have an interaction of variables, such as the optimization of relative humidity, temperature, and measurements of indoor air quality. Another important factor is the need for air renewal in the environment. Low rates of air exchange in indoor environments cause a considerable increase in chemical and biological pollutants in the air. Chemical products comprising volatile organic compounds, particulate matter, and others are released into the air from everyday products, various constructions, and processing tools. The largest is fresh construction materials. In general, it is common to spend more time working, living, or in leisure activities indoors. Nowadays, this topic is gaining more and more attention in debates and research, such as the concern to reduce its risks, as it is a matter of public health. For these reasons, it is crucial to decide on air abatement technology to clean the air effectively and efficiently. In this master thesis, a prototype is analyzed to decompose the VOC concentration, where terpene is applied to the airflow to create an atmosphere with VOCs so that its decomposition can be investigated. This device is divided into stages: non-thermal plasma, UVC photolysis, bipolar ionization, electrostatic precipitator, and an ozone destructor. In this prototype, advanced oxidation processes are utilized to remove aerosol particles in the complex air cleaner device. The study aims to investigate the efficiency of the complex air cleaner prototype by observing how aerosol particles as a by-product of the VOCs oxidation/decomposition process are generated at different air cleaning device stages. The objectives are: An overview of scientific literature on VOCs as an indoor pollution source, as well as aerosol particles generation as a by-product of the VOCs oxidation/decomposition process and its removal technologies; To create a research plan and prepare a methodology for generated ...
