The present invention provides an air filtering system for use in a building and an HVAC system, wherein the air filtering system includes: an outside-air inlet; a first filtering stage at the downstream of the outside-air inlet; a second filtering stage at the downstream of the first filtering stage; a collection module for collecting outside-air quality information; and a control module in communication with the collection module, wherein the control module adjusts an operation state of the first filtering stage and/or the second filtering stage based on the air quality information collected by the collection module. The system of the present invention has the advantages of energy saving, low maintenance cost, etc.

The present invention relates to a sterilization device. The sterilization device, according to the present invention, comprises: a frame having a first surface into which air flows, and a second surface from which air flows out; one or more discharge electrodes disposed in the frame; and a plurality of ground electrodes alternately arranged with the discharge electrodes. The discharge electrodes each comprise: a framework extending in the direction parallel to the ground electrodes; a first discharge needle protruding toward the first surface from the framework; and a second discharge needle protruding toward the second surface from the framework. The discharge electrodes are inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to an arbitrary axis of rotation parallel to the direction in which the ground electrodes extend, such that a discharge treatment region is formed perpendicularly to a flow direction by means of the alternate arrangement of the discharge electrodes and the ground electrodes parallel to the flow direction. Accordingly, it is possible to sterilize all air passing through the sterilization device, and it is possible to design a compact sterilization device having a wide discharge treatment region within the frame.

The field of this invention is technology that supports and enhances natural face-to-face communication. Throughout the recent Pandemic, people have been adversely affected by the loss of real face-to-face human contact. The invention provides one or more safe ‘meeting spaces’ through which persons can talk to each other normally, without the risk of airborne pathogens passing between them. The meeting space of the invention offers no physical barrier such as glass, which would reduce the quality of communication and diminish the user experience. Persons may see and hear each other through the meeting space but pathogens cannot substantially pass through it. Various ways are provided that substantially destroy/inactivate/remove pathogens from the meeting space(s). Some embodiments are sustainable, carbon neutral and solar powered. Others are highly energy efficient. Further refinements create a pleasant environment for conversation and enhance the user experience.

An air ionization system is provided for creating an ionized airflow within a transit vehicle. The air ionization system includes a block having electronic control circuitry therein, air ionizing electrodes, and wiring electrically coupling the air ionizing electrodes to the electronic control circuitry. The air ionizing electrodes are mounted remote to the block in the transit vehicle and are mounted within an air distribution unit of the transit vehicle.
