Glad to share our recently published study in ES&T Air evaluating 13 different air cleaners for PM and VOC removal under wildfire smoke conditions. We evaluated 13 different commercial and DIY air cleaners in a test chamber w/ pine needle wildfire smoke challenge

As #drought dries up the #SaltonSea, #farmworkers living nearby are exposed to toxic #dust and airborne #pollution from #algae blooms. #Asthma, #allergies, and other #health impacts are rising at alarming rates.

I have created a step-by-step guide to building a #CorsiRosenthalBox. Thank you @JimRosenthal4 & @CorsIAQ for approving it. Displaying it in waiting rooms, offices, schools, and libraries will help more people stay safe this season. Please DM me if you need a PDF or another size.

1/ Reducing respiratory aerosol particle concentrations in dorm rooms.
I have heard from parents who have children returning to dorms at universities across North America. The #corsirosenthalbox can help with these situations a lot! Really a lot, folks. read on.

To anyone who wants to add an extra layer of protection to their homes (or businesses) during the holidays...the Corsi-Rosenthal box is a low cost yet effective way to filter the virus (and other pollutants and pathogens) from indoor air. See @CleanAirCrewOrg for more info.

Nice mask study ~consistent w/ prev. results.

"... face masks sign. reduce the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection compared to social distancing. We find a very low risk of inf. when everyone wears a face mask, even if it doesn’t fit perfectly on the face." 1/🧵

Never been a better time to help improve indoor air quality:
* Schools may see COVID increases from holiday travel
* Omicron variant threatening
* Black Fri & Cyber Mon deals at play
If you have any $ margin, consider buying a HEPA filter or two for your local school.
