INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO NORMALIZING THE AIR QUALITY OF THE PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

There are considered possibilities for normalizing the air conditions in a room without using air corona ionizers with by-generation of ozone and nitrogen oxides. Experiment results for determining the aeroion concentration dynamics of both polarities are given. It is shown that during the operation of a standard ultrasonic air humidifier with a change in relative humidity from 38 to 45%, the ion concentrations change as follows: n- from 230 to 560, n+ - from 260 to 410, which can be considered satisfactory. But during the operation of the air conditioner, depending on the time of day, the proportions of the aeroion polarities are different. This is due to both the positive ionization of the air surface layer at night and in the morning and the partially unpredictable electrification of polymer surfaces (carpets, linoleums, wallpapers, etc.). The latter depends on the surface charge sign. The obtained data on the effect of the split system on the aeronic mode of the premises, different from the known ones. Therefore, it was concluded that careful studies of the effects of ventilation, cooling, and air conditioning systems are necessary, which will determine the list and content of measures to normalize and maintain the concentrations of aeroions of both polarities at the normative level. It is concluded that it is advisable to develop and test an ultrasonic air ionizer with controlled generation both with quantity and polarity coefficient of aeroions. This will not only normalize the concentrations of aeroions but also neutralize the surface electrostatic charges of both signs
