A fume extractor system and method for use with a 3D printer includes a system operable in three conditions including: continuously filtering particulates and fumes at high temperatures during a printing process without intentional removal of pressure from the print chamber; continuously filtering particulates at high temperatures during a print process with intentional removal of pressure from the print chamber, to keep noxious gases retained in the print chamber; and purging the print chamber of fumes and mixing in ambient air to cool the fumes to a temperature low enough to allow adsorption of the fumes created by the printer. The system has a first compartment holding a first filter assembly and a second compartment holding a second filter assembly.

A storage container (100) comprising a housing (110) containing a storage chamber (112) isolated from an outside environment (10). The housing (110) defines a housing inlet (130) and a housing outlet (140). The storage container (100) is configured to clean air in the outside environment (10). The storage container (100) comprises a first filtration assembly (360) coupled to the housing (110) about the housing outlet (140). The first filtration assembly (360) has a first filtration inlet (364) configured to receive air from the storage chamber, a first filtration outlet (366) configured to release air into the outside environment (10), and first filter media (368) between the first filtration inlet (364) and the first filtration outlet (366).

A smart multi-modal vehicular air filtration management system including a first filter element and a second filter element disposed in a fresh air housing, wherein the fresh air housing has an inlet and an outlet. Additionally, a third filter element is provided which is disposed in a cabin housing, the cabin housing having one or more inlet. A fluid channel arranged between the fresh air and cabin housing. Finally, a diverter is included which is disposed near an outlet of the fresh air housing, wherein the diverter is configured to cause air to flow through the fresh air housing selectively through one or both of the first filter element and the second filter element.

A prefabricated monolithic modular self-supporting sanitizable clean room system comprises at least one clean room having large monolithic panels, consisting of a high density foamed polystyrene inner core, and coated in fiber-glass/polyester, the system having the following particular characteristics: high productivity with increase in product shelf life, absolute air filtering, temperature, humidity and overpressure control, reduced washing and drying times, maximum washability, high efficiency air treatment mixer system with desiccant dehumidification wheel, significant reduction in costs of civil works and also including all the prefabricated utilities.

Listed are some of this invention's unique features for producing a healthier home and a safer clothes dryer vent within the same housing system, which may be installed within a typical wall system or as a free-standing unit in a laundry room.

Included are two airflow receiving ports that accepts airflow from a clothes dryer or optionally from a house's interior rooms and two airflow exhaust ports that discharge the same airflow into an exhaust pipe to the outside or optionally into the building interior as recycled airflow.

A drainage device removes water derived from condensate which forms in the exhaust pipe and otherwise flows back into the housing.

Two (2) receiving ports and the two (2) exiting ports combine to provide four (4) combinations of airflow management.

The choice of which of the four (4) airflow ports are activated for airflow passage is subject to a selection from a control system which contains switches for the desired airflow management thru the housing.

Additionally, the control system contains monitors and sensors to indicate unsafe temperatures, air pressure changes or filter blockage within the housing.

A shutdown mechanism within the control system stops the airflow exhaust fan and stops the clothes dryer to provide an additional measure of safety.

Included in the invention is a multi-filter filtration system that includes filters that block lint particulate from a clothes dryer and block indoor pollutants comprising pre-filters, True HEPA filters, with activated carbon filters and air cleaners to meet EPA Indoor Air Quality Standards and MERV Ratings.

A multi-speed airflow exhaust fan moves airflow in thru the receiving ports, thru the multi-filters and out thru the exiting ports. Additionally, within the housing, access openings with removable windows provide internal inspections and accessibility.

In conclusion the elements of this invention combine to improve the efficiency and safety of a clothes dryer's exhaust system and improve the indoor air quality of a home or commercial building.

A filter assembly with upper and lower filter chambers containing a filter material, preferably activated carbon, and a coalescing filter, respectively. The filter assembly includes a visual indicator for showing when the filter assembly is saturated and requires replacement or maintenance. In a preferred embodiment, the visual indicator is a temperature indicator. In an alternate embodiment, the visual indicator is an air flow indicator. A particularly preferred embodiment, the upper filter chamber includes a removable lid which allows for removal and replacement of the filter material. The filter assembly further includes at least one flashback inhibitor to prevent igniting fumes. The filter assembly connected to a storage drum which accepts residue from pressurized containers and removes contaminants from gas fumes which escape from the storage drum.
