Dust Control and Air Cleaning covers various areas of concerns in the management of airborne particles and air sanitization. The title provides a comprehensive coverage of the methods in regulating air quality The coverage of the text includes airborne particles and health; the dynamics of particles; and sampling methods. The selection details various air purification methods and technologies such as removal of particles by wet scrubbing; cyclone dust separators; and filter materials and practical filters. The book will be of great use to student and professional building services engineers and technicians.

Exposure to wood dust presents a health hazard to woodworkers and the need for dust control has received coverage in the woodworking press. This guide shows how to choose appropriate equipment; how to use it and describes the tools and strategies needed to ensure a healthier working environment.

Throughout the mining and processing of minerals, the mined ore undergoes a number of crushing, grinding, cleaning, drying, and product sizing operations as it is processed into a marketable commodity. These operations are highly mechanized, and both individually and collectively these processes can generate large amounts of dust. If control technologies are inadequate, hazardous levels of respirable dust may be liberated into the work environment, potentially exposing workers. Accordingly, federal regulations are in place to limit the respirable dust exposure of mine workers. Engineering controls are implemented in mining operations in an effort to reduce dust generation and limit worker exposure.

Fundamentals of Air Cleaning Technology and Its Application in Cleanrooms sets up the theoretical framework for cleanrooms. New ideas and methods are presented, which include the characteristic index of cleanrooms, uniform and non-uniform distribution characteristics, the minimum sampling volume, a new concept of outdoor air conditioning and the fundamentals of leakage-preventing layers. Written by an author who can look back on major scientific achievements and 50 years of experience in this field, this book offers a concise and accessible introduction to the fundamentals of air cleaning technology and its application. The work is intended for researchers, college teachers, graduates, designers, technicians and corporate R&D personnel in the field of HVAC and air cleaning technology. Zhonglin Xu is a senior research fellow at China Academy of Building Research.

The Handbook of Nonwoven Filter Media, Second Edition provides readers with a fundamental understanding of nonwoven filter media. It is one of the few books dealing exclusively with the subject, and is primarily intended as a reference for people in the nonwovens industry (industry and academic researchers, technical, marketing , and quality control personnel) and universities offering courses in filtration theory and practice and nonwovens technology.The book includes applications for gas, liquid, and engine filtration, and identifies the types of filter media used in these applications. The various separation technologies that can be achieved with nonwoven filter media are revealed and discussed. Theoretical presentation is based on flow through porous media, and is developed around a nonwovens or engineered fabrics orientation. - Presents the latest information on legislative, regulatory, environmental and sustainability issues affecting the nonwovens and filtration industries - Includes a comprehensive discussion of Computational Flow Dynamics (CFD) by Dr. George Chase, University of Akron, USA - Includes the latest Global and North American marketing statistics for filters and filter media prepared by Brad Kalil of INDA
