Particle air filters—also called media filters or mechanical filters—are the most common air cleaning technology used today, but not everyone knows how they work or how they interact with systems to clean air. This column reviews filter basics including particle sizes, aerosol capture theory, resistance to airflow and practical issues associated with their application in buildings to improve indoor air quality.
