The COVID-19 pandemic has elevated Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) on the list of priorities for commercial building owners. What was once a supplemental benefit for occupant comfort has now become a core responsibility that is imperative to the health and safety of tenants. Many property owners are toeing the line between pouring capital into enhancing their IAQ measures through increased ventilation rates, improved filtration, and disinfection technology in an effort to minimize transmission rates for this novel virus.

Incorporating more outside air is recommended but costly, and many arent sure where or what exactly to invest in to ensure occupants are safe, while keeping capital expenditures and increased energy costs in check. The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) circulated new IAQ guidelines for buildings that are continuing operations during the COVID-19 pandemic, but this is a framework and not a clear-cut solution for addressing the current crisis.

Commercial property owners need to evaluate three things before changing how they operate: They need to understand what types of mitigation measures their existing equipment and infrastructure can support, how much they are willing to invest, and which solutions will be most beneficial to them moving forward as we navigate through the new normal. There are a number of solutions available to optimize IAQ, and by taking these three steps, building owners will be in a much better position to keep occupants safe, happy, and comfortable.

Evidence points to COVID-19 being an airborne virus, spread from person to person through droplets. In commercial buildings, transmission risk can be mitigated by increasing the air change rate for outside air ventilation. Pulling in more outside air can dilute potentially contaminated air so occupants are less likely to be exposed to recirculated infected droplets. By replacing contaminated indoor air with fresh outside air, dilution decreases the potential concentration of infectious particles. Coupling dilution with filtration and disinfection provides a strong, three-pronged approach to minimizing transmission risks.

Many commercial buildings use demand-controlled ventilation (DCV), which adjusts outside ventilation based on occupant demands, as a simple way to save on both energy and costs. The aforementioned recommendations from ASHRAE, designed specifically to help buildings address the COVID-19 pandemic, advise against this and instead, recommend keeping outdoor air dampers as fully open as possible to maximize the air changes within the space. To do this, existing control sequences and economizer limits will need to be temporarily modified or overridden. Commercial HVAC systems will typically have either air-side or water-side economizers, which are used when there is a cooling demand in the facilitybut if ambient conditions are sufficiently cool, then outside air can be used instead of mechanical cooling to save energy. Under normal circumstances, equipment with air-side economizers will only fully open outdoor air dampers if the outdoor air temperature is sufficiently cool.

During the pandemic, the programming of the controllers which handle this action should be modified to make the system operate differently. Since most commercial HVAC equipment is not sized to handle 100 percent outdoor air during peak summer and winter conditions, the programming could be modified so that it will allow the dampers to fully open up to a certain outside air temperature, and then linearly and inversely throttle them closed as the outdoor air temperature rises. As a theoretical example, if the outside air temperature is below 80 F, the outside air damper will remain fully open. Between 80 F and 100 F, the damper will close from 100 percent open down to 50 percent open.

Facility managers will need to consider the thermal capacities of their equipment to ensure the air can be adequately conditioned and adjust ventilation rates down when ambient conditions are at their peak. Extending system schedules both before and after normal occupancy times is also recommended to purge the space. Unfortunately, drastically increasing outside air ventilation can be very expensive depending on the climate of the facilities location, so coupling some level of dilution ventilation with other mitigation measures might be the best approach for many facilities.

Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) is the application of UV energy to irradiate organisms, altering the structure of the organisms DNA and stopping replication. While the entire UV spectrum is capable of inactivating microorganisms, UV-C energy is most effective in providing a germicidal effect, with 265 mm being the optimum wavelength.

Overall, there are four main types of disinfecting systems that use UV-C energy. First, UV-C lamps installed in the AHU downstream of the cooling coil provide surface disinfection of the coil surface, in addition to some disinfection of the airstream itself. UV-C lamps installed in ductwork use high UV doses to inactivate microorganisms on the fly, as they pass through an irradiance zone. (The distance of the irradiance zone will be determined by the velocity of the air stream.) There is a minimum UV exposure time, meaning the microorganism must be in this treated area for sufficiently long to be inactivated.

UV-C upper air disinfection uses UV fixtures mounted in occupied spaces near the ceiling, which could be considered when there is limited or no mechanical ventilation. When ventilation is insufficient, however, supplemental fans might be required. Portable room decontamination using UV LED lighting is for surface decontamination, which has been used for some time to disinfect patient rooms in hospitals after patients are discharged, and before a new patient moves in. They could also be used to disinfect classrooms, gyms, and other spaces. Its important to keep in mind that the room should be completely unoccupied during the disinfection process.

According to the ASHRAE Position Document on Infectious Aerosols , infectious aerosols can pose an exposure risk, regardless of whether or not an infectious disease is defined as an airborne. Larger droplets, containing pathogens, can remain airborne longer if the airflow allows for extended suspension, as noted in a paper titled, Recognition of aerosol transmission of infectious agents: a commentary. Propagation of these pathogens makes it possible for individuals to be infected, even when theyre at a farther distance from the original source. Increasing central HVAC filtration to the highest level achievable, without compromising system operation, should be considered. MERV, known as Minimum Efficiency Reporting Values, indicates a filters ability to capture various size particles. The higher MERV rating the better, as higher MERV ratings remove smaller and more harmful contaminants from the air. To capture the most airborne contaminants, increase the AHU filtration to the highest equivalent MERV level the equipment can handle, with MERV-13 filtration as a minimum. Determining the highest filter efficiency fan systems can handle is best done in collaboration with either a commissioning provider or a testing and balancing firm.

When it comes to air filters, there are two important factors to consider: the size of particles the filter can capture and the efficiency of that filter to capture those particles. High efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters can capture 99.97 percent of particles down to 0.3 microns in diameter, but they inflict a substantial pressure drop to the air system. While equipment designed for use in healthcare facilities likely accounted for this, HEPA filtration was usually not considered in the design of commercial office HVAC systems. The latest electronic disinfecting filtration systems can exceed the performance of HEPA, both in terms of particulate size and efficiency with a pressure drop closer to standard filtration media. One variation of this disinfecting filtration system is portable self-contained units, which can be used in high-risk or heavily trafficked areas, such as a lobby or conference room. Alternatively, the filtration system of a central air handling unit can be replaced or supplemented by a modular deployment of these filters. These systems work by first, using a standard pre-filter to capture large particles before having the air pass through a high energy grid. This causes an agglomeration of ultrafine particles, making them larger and easier to capture in the final filter. High voltage energy is then applied to this filter to actually disinfect and kill the contaminants. While this is more costly compared to standard passive filters, its highly effective.

When central ventilation system filtration is either not possible or feasible, adding portable room air cleaners with HEPA or electronic disinfectant filtration systems can have a similar effect. The visibility of the equipment to the occupants also provides an added layer of comfort. While portable air filtration units make the most sense in specific high traffic areas, their limiting factor is in how much air they can move through them with their internal fan. In commercial spaces, these are often used as add-ons to other methods, such as improving filtration. Compared to other solutions, contaminants do not need to be brought back to the AHU to be captured by filters or neutralized with UV light, as the ions are created in the supply air and perform once in the occupied space.

Bipolar ionization is an emerging technology that utilizes high voltage electrodes to create reactive ions that react with airborne contaminants, including viruses. Whereas other solutions require contaminants to be recirculated back to the equipment to either be captured or killed by filtration or UV irradiation, this technology compliments those strategies by distributing disinfecting ions directly into the occupied spaces, where they can neutralize volatile organic compounds and other contaminants at the source. While bipolar ionization is still being thoroughly tested, early results have been positive. A recent study indicated that coronavirus was reduced by 99.92 percent within 30 minutes.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, this approach has piqued the interest of many property owners who see it as a no-energy solution for occupant safety. In the past, bipolar ionization was deemed an effective solution for fighting outbreaks such as SARS, norovirus, and strains of influenza but its efficacy for the novel coronavirus is still being examined. Some facilities, specifically large airports, have shown their faith in this technology and are currently utilizing it, such as Los Angeles World Airport, Chicagos OHare, Fort Lauderdale International, and Tokyos Narita Airport.

Overall, building sanitization and indoor air quality will be viewed through a different lens in the future, as weve seen and experienced just how critical it is to maintain a safe and comfortable building environment. Certainly, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will shift the building industry in several ways. Moving forward, our society will need to thoroughly adapt to mitigate the risk of virus spread and further infection. Creating healthy buildings has already been gaining traction in newer buildings, with programs such as LEED and WELL leading the way. Indoor air quality has been a key component of both, though ultimately only a small fraction of the overall built environment is certified. Buildings that can provide better indoor air quality are going to be at an advantage in attracting high quality tenants. While in the short term, making IAQ investments might be looked at solely as getting through the COVID-19 pandemic. Going forward, tenants will likely demand spaces that provide high levels of indoor air quality as a standard.

Its imperative to be cautious, aware, and proactive when it comes to halting the spread of COVID-19 and preventing the potential for future outbreaks. When starting to craft your response plan, property owners need to evaluate the types of mitigation measures their infrastructure and equipment can support, determine what their budget is, and identify what available options will be the most beneficial within that budget. There are a variety of IAQ solutions and approaches including UVGI disinfection, bipolar ionization, and HEPA filters that can support ventilation and dilution efforts with outside air. Its important to evaluate which options exist, the amount of energy they use, and how they fit within the budget and decide what could be the most practical for the building as a whole. By following these steps and ASHRAES framework, property owners could more effectively navigate this new normal by keeping occupant safety a priority, while also maintaining compliance and avoiding costly bills.

Spacecraft particles orbiting the Earth rendered by Reddit person whoadave.

The battle between SpaceX and Amazon surrounding a petition submitted by the latter to the FCC for altering guidelines associated to the Fees processing of modifications to present purposes for non-geostationary fixed-satellite service (NGSO FSS) web service suppliers. Amazon, which has laid down a set of parameters for the FCCs consideration concerning the appliance of Part 25.117 of its guidelines argues that the present interpretation of this part stifles competitors within the business and permits service suppliers to improve their techniques on the expense of rivals who intend to launch such techniques sooner or later.

The arguments supplied by each firms got here to go as soon as once more right now as each SpaceX and Amazon submitted contemporary replies to feedback within the FCCs docket (RM-11861) assigned to the matter. These replies cite feedback made by different entities within the NGSO FSS area, with representatives of each firms utilizing them to bolster their arguments.

SpaceX To Begin Constructing Starship Booster Prototypes This Week States Musk

The FCCs present technique for evaluating NGSO FSS system modification purposes follows the usual set in 1999 for granting Teledesic LLC approval for modifying its NGSO FSS system. Teledesic, which had been granted authority to launch 840 satellites within the Ka-band for web providers, modified its utility after it chosen The Boeing Firm as its major satellite tv for pc supplier, with the modification reflecting the parameters of Boeings merchandise. In its choice, the FCC acknowledged that for the reason that adjustments didnt trigger interference with different satellite tv for pc operators (major geostationary operators) and that because it was deemed to be within the public curiosity, they had been to be granted.

In its newest feedback, Amazon asserts that these two elements are outdated and that they dont assist the now matured state of the NGSO FSS sphere. The corporate additionally cites feedback made by O3b, OneWeb and Telesat in RM-11861 the place all three both acknowledge that the present guidelines are too broad in nature or that by submitting a collection of modifications that seem like small individually however have a major affect as an entire, firms can considerably improve their techniques and hurt rivals who intend to introduce such upgrades in later submitting rounds.

O3b, as an illustration, states that, the 1999 Teledesic choice is simply too imprecise to adequately deal with right nows dynamic NGSO FSS business and the accompanying spectrum sharing points, with Telesat accepting that the present commonplace is simply too normal.

SpaceX launched the tenth batch of operational Starlink satellites on the 18th of this month on the Falcon 9 B1049 booster that has now reflown and landed for a document six instances. The corporate has acknowledged that the Falcon 9s are able to ten launches with little refurbishment wanted and may be launched as much as 100 instances earlier than retirement. Picture: SpaceX

SpaceX, which had proposed to the FCC in response to Amazons authentic petition for rulemaking that the Fee specify in its guidelines that each one modifications needs to be granted until they trigger vital interference, and modifications to considerably enhance the variety of satellites in a constellation be thought-about main, is straight the goal of Amazons feedback made right now.

Amazon asserts that SpaceXs proposals dont set up standards for evaluating what vital interference entails, and extra importantly, and collectively they supply candidates with incentives for submitting speculative purposes that trigger most interference and include extra satellites than wanted with a view to tone down each of those later to keep away from the opportunity of being positioned in one other submitting spherical.

SpaceX Can Conduct Vital Starship Booster Hop In October Believes Musk

In its contemporary feedback, SpaceX continues to state that Amazons proposed guidelines will hamper innovation within the NGSO FSS sector. Constructing on its earlier argument, the corporate factors out that few commentators have supported the proposed guidelines and of those who have proven assist depend on imprecise arguments. As an illustration, O3b which acknowledged earlier than the Fee that there needs to be no numerical limits to the variety of modifications allowed is implicitly accepting that the FCCs present analysis requirements are truthful when figuring out the dangerous impact of interference states SpaceX.

It cites feedback made by Telesat, Viasat and OneWeb as proof of the shortage of assist for Amazons suggestion amongst commentators. Telesat had famous in feedback made final month that Amazons proposal doesnt issue within the complexity of interference evaluation, and Viasat had rejected the corporates assertion that the present analysis standards is imprecise and requested the FCC to not change its guidelines since operators are within the strategy of deploying their techniques.

SpaceX builds on OneWebs feedback by reiterating that Amazons intention via the proposed rulemaking is solely to make up for it being unable to use within the FCCs earlier spherical. The corporate leads its reply by stating that the proposed adjustments will freeze satellite tv for pc techniques in time because the world strikes on beneath and saddle People with spectrally inefficient techniques.

Amazons constellation of NGSO FSS web satellites will likely be operated by Kuiper Programs LLC which is an Amazon.com Providers LLC subsidiary. Kuipers Mission Kuiper acquired FCC approval for a constellation of three,236 satellites in July this yr and to-date no Kuiper satellites have been launched. Picture: Amazon

Lastly, SpaceX additionally gives a three-tiered framework for countering speculative purposes. This consists of setting deployment milestones enabling the measurement of specs promised to specs achieved towards a set timeline, require non-U.S. candidates to pay a justifiable share of utility charges for stopping speculative purposes and establishing an interference commonplace to make sure that purposes with specs that trigger interference are evaluated on spectral effectivity. SpaceX additionally requests the FCC to require non-U.S. candidates to additionally observe particles mitigation necessities which regularly require adjusting altitude and different satellite tv for pc parameters.

Up to now, SpaceX leads the race in constructing a NGSO FSS constellation via deploying greater than 600 Starlink satellites. OneWeb at the moment has 64 satellites in orbit and Telesat plans to start out launching its Low Earth Orbit spacecraft late subsequent yr. Telesats satellites are bigger than SpaceXs with the full constellation dimension anticipated to face at 300 satellites. Amazon is but to launch a Kuiper satellite tv for pc, with no definitive date obtainable for launch. FCCs guidelines require the corporate to position no less than half of its proposed constellation of three,236 satellites in orbit by 2026 whether it is to maintain its launch authorization.

Smart Lighting Market outlook, Future Scope, Demands and Projected Industry Growths to 2025 - Express Journal

During a recent webinar on the importance of indoor air quality in the times of covid-19, Liam Bates, founder of air quality monitoring and solutions company Kaiterra, summed up the current conundrum when it comes to air-conditioning systems. HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) is like a double-edged sword. It can be your best friend or it can be your worst enemy," Bates said. The key here is ventilation."

If your buildings HVAC unit takes the air from a room, cools it down or heats it up, and then mixes it with a little amount of outside air before redistributing it, that is not great news. If it follows the same process, but mixes a substantial amount of outside air and then passes the air flow through high-grade filters before redistribution, the risk of infection comes down.

A February 2019 paper published in the journal Scientific Reports used computer simulations and models to show how ventilation can make a huge difference in curbing aerosol transmission of a virus. Our model suggests that recommendation-abiding ventilation could be as effective in mitigating outbreaks as vaccinating approximately half of the population," the paper explains. While this study was focused on influenza, the same logic would apply to the novel coronavirus.

As humidity, temperature control and filtration come into focus, AC manufacturers are beginning to take the cue. Earlier this week, electronics company Samsung unveiled a new range of wind-free" ACs that come with a PM 1.0 filter, which uses an electrostatic charge to sterilize the air and capture ultra-fine particles down to 0.3 microns. Clean air solutions company Nirvana Being, among others, has introduced nanotech-based AC filters (made from electro spun nanofibres) that cost just 1,495 and can turn a split air-conditioner into an air sterilizer.

To understand how to move forward, it is key to understand how the air draft from air conditioners can help carry respiratory droplets. A paper published in the International Forum Of Allergy And Rhinology in July notes: In a room setting, particle emission from the mouth or nose is influenced by its initial velocity. A sneeze, for example, can generate an extremely high velocity initially (50 m/s), but it will quickly dissipate over a short distance (5 m/s after 0.6 meter), whereas talking generates a lower velocity at 3 m/s, with the initial airflow field likely dissipating completely within 1 meter from the mouth." While droplets with a larger diameter will fall to the surface quickly, the movement of an aerosol particle not large enough to settle will be governed by the indoor airflow as its initial velocity decreases.

The biggest problem in a closed office space is potential transmission through the airborne routeespecially when the AC is on," says Barun Aggarwal, CEO of indoor air quality solutions provider BreatheEasy Consultants. Aggarwal is part of a task force set up by the technical committee of the Indian Society of Heating, Refrigerating & Air Conditioning Engineers (Ishrae), which came out with detailed guidelines on covid-19 and HVAC systems in April.

The guidelines include a greater focus on fresh air intaketo dilute indoor airand low level of air drafts. You dont want your air conditioner to be running on full blast. You want to reduce your fan speed," says Aggarwal.

In indoor settings, its suggested, you should try to maintain relative humidity at 40-60%. Upgrading filters can help too. We have technology today that can actually filter out the covid-19 virus particle from the air as long as it is done properly," says Aggarwal, who recommends using H13 grade filters. H13 is actually a Hepa, or high-efficiency particulate air, filter that is considered extremely efficienta 2016 study by US space agency Nasa says Hepa filters are nearly 100% efficient at capturing a spectrum of particles, down to the smallest airborne particles. Anybody who plans to open their offices, schools, theatres, malls or any other commercial establishment, before we have a vaccine that is scalable, needs to take these precautions," says Aggarwal.

Ventilation and AC systems in public transport like the Metro remain an area of concern. When Indian Railways restarted limited operations earlier this year, the roof-mounted AC package unit systems in its air-conditioned coaches were overhauled to allow more fresh air into the compartments. According to a Press Trust of India report, these units now replace the air inside coaches more than 16-18 times every hour, just as they would in a hospital operation theatre. News reports suggest a similar overhaul is expected in the HVAC systems of Metro coaches before the service resumes in parts of India from 7 September.

There are other technologies too. Research has shown that irradiation, or ultraviolet-C lighting, can help deactivate" pathogens. According to a McKinsey & Co. article published in July, HVAC systems can also incorporate ionic purifiers, ozone generators and other devices to clean the air.

For these systems to work, however, the air would have to be exposed to the sterilization process for a significant period of time. Ultraviolet-C lighting, for instance, needs a minimum exposure time of 1 minute to sterilize the air, so its difficult to use if there is a continuous flow of air.
