A surgical treatment system for contaminated air streams having particulate contamination, polar contamination and/or nonpolar contamination in the gas or vapor stream. A surgical smoke plume treatment system and method provide or define a multi-stage treatment process that mechanically filters the air stream, followed by nonpolar decontamination and then polar decontamination or treatment. The system may be used stand alone or incorporated and used with other surgical instruments or incorporated into an air handler adapted to decontaminate an air stream. A desiccant may optionally be used to remove water from the air stream.

An air purification apparatus for nasal application is provided for purifying and/or reducing undesirable materials from air intended to enter a nasal cavity. The air purification apparatus for nasal application may include an air purification apparatus, housing component, power component, fan component, filtration component, germicidal irradiation component, aroma component, nose plug component, monitoring component, and case.

A composition in accordance with an aspect of the present invention includes: composite fibers composed of inorganic particles and fibers; and at least one of (i) different-type inorganic particles which are different in type from the inorganic particles, (ii) different-type fibers which are different in type from the fibers, and (iii) organic particles.

The disclosed subject matter relates to a microcapsule including a particle core selected from activated carbon (AC), super activated carbon (SAC), MOF composition, multifunctional material or a mixture thereof and a water-soluble polymer shell, including a membrane into which the microcapsule is incorporated, a membrane with exposed AC, SAC, MOF, or multifunctional materials or mixture thereof formed therefrom and methods used is the formation of all of the above.

An air purifier and conditioner (and concomitant method of simultaneously purifying and conditioning air) comprising a housing receiving source air and an aqueous solution, a drop charger receiving the source air and providing a spray of electrically charged drops of the aqueous solution to produce treated air, a mist eliminator eliminating liquid in the treated air and producing conditioned air, a heat exchanger receiving the conditioned air and producing supply air, and a fan moving the supply air to a facility employing the supply air.

An electrostatic adsorption mask is provided. The mask comprises two straps, a mask body, a filtering layer and a tiny power. The filtering layer is located in the mask body and comprises a first carbon nanotube layer, a second carbon nanotube layer and an insulated porous layer. The insulated porous layer is located between the first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer. The first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer are electrically coupled with the tiny power. An electric field is existed between the first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer.

A method for extracting and capturing airborne aerosol and particulate matters in the air that may be potentially contaminated with harmful bacteria and viruses using a vacuum extraction system; treating the contaminated air by scrubbing it with a biocide solution; filtering the scrubbed air using activated carbon and HEPA filters to remove any residual biocide; and optionally, treating the filtered air with UV-C, ozone, or plasma, before the sterilized air is return to the environment.

An isolation section assembly includes a section housing defining an interior space. The section housing includes a door with access to the interior space. The isolation section assembly includes an enclosure abutting the door. The airlock enclosure defines an interior airlock space. The interior airlock space is configured and adapted to be at a negative pressure relative to a cabin area. An air recirculation system in fluid communication with at least one of the interior space of the section housing or the interior airlock space.

A device for reducing a carbon dioxide and water content in an enclosed air volume has first and second sorption units for sorbing carbon dioxide and water. The first and second sorption units can be transferred from a sorption mode into a desorption mode and vice versa. In the sorption mode, the first and second sorption units sorb carbon dioxide and water from raw air of the enclosed air volume. In the desorption mode, the first and second desorption units desorb carbon dioxide and water to supplied regeneration air. An air distribution device can switch the first and second sorption units, based on the carbon dioxide and water content, alternately from sorption mode into desorption mode such that, in at least one operating state of the device, one of the first and second sorption units is in sorption mode while the other is in desorption mode.

A system for improving an air-quality of a given space serviced by an exit register of an AC system including a base frame device that is configured to engage the exit register, a metal base frame section for engaging the base frame device with a perimeter of the exit register. A register cover device that is configured to magnetically engage the base frame device. The register cover device having a plurality of alternating open space portions, a plurality of air diverting fin segments, and a magnet holder implement. The magnet holder implement includes at least four magnet holders that are disposed on each end corner portion of the register cover device. At least four height adjustable magnets are disposed on each of the magnet holders, wherein each of the height adjustable magnets is configured to magnetically engage the register cover device with the base frame device.
