A vehicle air purification system includes a first heating device (130-1), a first adsorption block (140-1), and a first flow path switching mechanism (150-1). The vehicle air purification system includes a first flow path configured to communicate with a vehicle cabin, a second heating device (130-2), a second adsorption block (140-2), and a second flow path switching mechanism (150-2). The vehicle air purification system includes a second flow path configured to communicate with the vehicle cabin, a blower (110) configured to circulate air from the vehicle cabin, an air distribution mechanism (120) configured to distribute air flowing from the vehicle cabin to the first flow path and the second flow path, and a control device (20). The control device (20) controls components at a timing when the flow of the air from a flow path of a side on which purification target substances are being desorbed to the vehicle cabin is able to be limited when the flow path is switched between a flow path along which the air that has passed through a first adsorption block flows and a flow path along which the air that has passed through a second adsorption block flows.

A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system may comprise an evaporator core including an upstream inlet face in which humid air is received, a downstream outlet face from which dehumidified air is discharged, and a plurality of air-contacting surfaces extending between the inlet and outlet faces. In one form, an antimicrobial coating may be formed on the air-contacting surfaces of the evaporator core. The antimicrobial coating may comprise an ionic material having immobilized ionic groups of one type of charge and mobile counterions of another type of charge. The mobile counterions may be ionically associated with the immobilized ionic groups. In another form, an ultraviolet light emitting diode (UV-LED) may be used to direct UV light onto the air-contacting surfaces of the evaporator core.

A counterflow heat exchanger includes a first fluid inlet, a first fluid outlet fluidly coupled to the first fluid inlet via a core section, a second fluid inlet, and a second fluid outlet fluidly coupled to the second fluid inlet via the core section.
