Air Purifiers For Car
Your car contains more contaminants than outside. The pollutants are majorly particulate matters of the size PM 10 & PM 2.5 and the vapors of formaldehyde and benzene that are products of the fuel. These pollutants have various side effects can be dangerous if inhaled by you and your family members. Also, the myth that the air conditioner will ensure fresh air is highly wrong.
CAR AIR PURIFIER – CIRCULATING FRESH AIR CONTINUOUSLY
Car air purifier is a small diary sized purifier particularly designed for a car. It removes the air contaminants like PM2.5 and formaldehyde or benzene vapors (which are the product of fuel combustion) from the car in 8 to 10 minutes. It utilizes Air Concept’s HEPA filtration technology and also releases anions that keep the travelers fresh and vitalized.
How To Ward Off Indoor Air Pollution At Home With Air Purifiers?
Air Purifiers contain various filters that almost negate the indoor pollutants and return the air quality to safer levels. While there are many air purification filters that are used in air purifiers, there are only some that are very relevant to air purification at home. While it’s good to have several filters, the filters that are must are Pre Filter, Activated Carbon Filter, HEPA filter.
A HEPA filter and Activated Carbon filter does the job of completely removing smoke and harmful gases from the air and reduce indoor air pollution.
There are a lot of contaminants like particles of dust, pet dander, and other allergens. They are captured by Pre-Filter. This helps in increasing the longevity of HEPA filters. Pre-filter removes the bigger particles and protects the HEPA filter from clogging. The main function of pre-filter is to reduce expenses that can result from clogging of HEPA filter.
The treatment of carbon with oxygen opens up multiple tiny pores on the surface of the carbon. The pores are so much in number that one pound of activated carbon provides 60-150 acres of surface area. It works on the concept of adsorption. The gas elements bond with the surface of solid. Activated carbon is the solid material that adsorbs air pollutants that are 60% of its weight. Once they are adsorbed by filters, the purified air leaves from the other side.
HEPA stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air. They are used in combination with an activated carbon filter and impart high efficiency of an air filter. It removes a wide range of airborne pollutants and also removes dust mites, pollen, mold and pet dander which are responsible for triggering problems like asthma. HEPA filter removes 99.9% of airborne contaminants which are of the size 0.01 microns. It is the most efficient for people suffering from allergies and asthma.
