  1. Air Cleaning Technology Laboratory (ACT Lab) Investigator: William Worek, Energy Resources Center Prime Grant Support: U.S. Department of Energy National Center for Energy Management and Building Technologies • Air Filtration industry lacks independent laboratory that correctly performs filtration research and testing • Numerous gas-removal technologies on the market making unrealistic claims • ACT Lab provides unbiased research services for manufacturers and other universities • Provides educational service to students and industry • Fully compliant ASHRAE 52.2 filter test rig • Capable of particulate and gas-phase removal efficiency testing of filtration devices • Up to 2500 CFM air flow • Full temperature and humidity control • Adaptable system capable of 100% outside air intake and exhaust, as well as room air intake and exhaust • 0.3-10 µ KCl particle generation and optical particle counter used to determine efficiency • Challenge gas generation and detection capabilities • Completed study quantifying effects of filter bypass on overall filtration efficiency • Performed study of ozone removal efficiency of different devices • Clients include filter, equipment, and media manufacturers, as well as universities • Future plans include expanding client base, as well as capabilities to include volatile organic compounds (VOC’s)
