Utah has passed air quality guidelines to fight VOCs, easing the burden on commercial air filtration systems when improving indoor air quality. Many small to medium enterprises in Utah are taking steps to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) generated during the production of their products which eases the burden on their commercial air filtration systems. Measures include switching to wa...

A new study suggests that the risk of air pollution exposure may be higher than usual for a specific group of people. The study’s authors found that a variant ABO gene, commonly found in A, B, and AB blood types, has been connected with increased incidences of cardiac arrest during periods of exposure to airborne pollutants. People with the O blood type were found to be less susceptible to he...

This disaster would eventually pave the way for the Clean Air Act and awareness of the importance of air filters. The catastrophic event, known as ...

While most people are generally aware of the negative health outcomes of air pollution, what most people don’t know is how air quality also has an effect on the productivity of workers. A study by Alberto Salvo, an associate professor in the economics department at the National University of Singapore, sought to understand the broader impact of air pollution by looking at its economic impact,...

RIVERDALE, NJ -- With a continuously rising volume of air vehicle traffic, it’s no surprise that airport terminals and buildings face a greater need for industrial quality air filters. The environments in and around airports are heavily polluted with gaseous contaminants and particulate matter, making it all the more important to ensure that airline passengers and workers are breathing clean,...

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- A recent study notes that there is a surprisingly large number of viruses in the atmosphere and that, worse, they are falling from the sky. The study is the first to quantify the viruses being carried into the troposphere, above the planet’s weather systems but below the stratosphere where planes fly at cruising altitude. These viruses are swept up from the gro...
