gas-phase air filtration systems eliminate gaseous pollutants, the true

IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM
AIR BORNE POLLUTION
Controlling airborne pollutants is
essential to maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. Pollutants
can come
from outside and inside the building. Outside sources of odors,
including the
incinerators, loading docks and waste disposal units, are usually
located at the
rear of the building within a few feet of primary HVAC air intakes.

 |
Emissions from nearby industrial
facilities or residential furnaces can also result in complaints from
guests
and staff. Inside sources of pollution can include tobacco smoke,
restaurants,
cleaning aerosols and bioeffluents from guests. Office furnishings and
printers
can worsen indoor air quality.
|
| For
clean indoor air, Purafil offers
an extensive product selection, from pleated chemical filters to
modular front
and side access units. Our systems are designed for easy maintenance
and are
incorporated into your makeup, supply, or return airstreams. |
PURAFIL APPLICATIONS WITH IN HOTELS
& CASINOS
There are numerous locations in
hotels and casinos where gasphase air filtration can be applied.
Purafil offers
a wide range of dry-chemical adsorbents called media, which are
engineered to mitigate
objectionable odors.

WHICH
AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM IS BEST?
Purafil’s systems are
built-to-order
to meet the needs of your budget, space, and air handling system. We
offer
solutions for retrofit applications and new construction.
 |
PURAFIL
MEDIA
Purafil offers a broad
selection of dry-chemical adsorbents called media, which are the core
of our built-to-order
air purification systems. Purafil manufactures a wide variety of media
to
remove specific pollutants from specific sources. Purafil media remove
contaminants through a process known as chemisorption.
|
|
During
this instantaneous
process, gases are adsorbed, or captured on the surface of the media.
Unlike
adsorption, during chemisorption the contaminants are chemically
transformed
into harmless solids that remain trapped inside the media. Once the
gases are
removed from your environment, they cannot re-enter the air stream.
In most cases, we recommend
Purafil® SP
Blend media because it removes the widest variety of odors and gases.
SP Blend
is a combination of Purakol® media, a premium grade activated
carbon, and
Purafil® SP media, an activated alumina substrate impregnated
with the active
ingredient sodium permanganate. While Purakol is highly effective at
removing VOC’s,
it performs poorly against hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, and oxides
of
nitrogen. By using these media in combination, Purafil can ensure the
removal
of all odors.
|
| THE
PURAFIL AIR PURIFICATION SYSTEM |
Purafil
media are packaged into disposable plastic modules. The
MediaPAK™
disposable plastic module is factory filled with media and comes ready
to be installed. Each MediaPAK holds 0.5 ft3 of media and is easy to
install and replace.
|
 |
| In
addition to media modules, Purafil’s air
purification system also offers a variety of filter options: a MERV 6
prefilter for removal of dust, pollen, and other particulates, as well
as a MERV 13 or MERV 14 final filter to polish air before it enters the
room. |
| THE
PURAFIL SIDE ACCESS SYSTEM (PSA) |
The
PSA is designed for both particulate and general odor control and works
in conjunction with the facility’s air handling system. The
PSA is a
built to order system available in more than 20 size options. A full
range of prefilter selections and particulate final filter selections
are also available.
|
 |
| THE
PURAFIL FRONT ACCESS SYSTEM (FAS) |
 |
The
FAS consists of modular frames that are individually tracked for
Purafil media modules. Frames can be stacked to any size or
configuration to meet any space requirement. The FAS is specified in
retrofit applications with high airflows or for custom air handling
units. Each frame with modules can handle airflows up to 2000 cfm
depending on the model chosen. |
THE
PURAFILTER®
Purafil
also recommends the use of the Purafilter, a combination chemical and
particulate filter designed to replace existing particulate filters in
retrofit or rework applications. The Purafilter, which contains Purafil
blended media, is useful in applications where space
limitations exist.
|
 |
| Purafil
engineers are the first to successfully suspend sodium permanganate
adsorbents in a bi-component fiber matrix, which does not require the
use of adhesives, so adsorbents are fully exposed for reaction
with
gaseous chemical contaminants and odors. Adsorbents are evenly
distributed throughout the filter structure to assure the highest
filtration efficiencies. |
