Independent tests have shown that a new mobile air purifier rapidly reduces concentrations of ultra-fine, virus-sized particles in the air.
The research, carried out by the UK Building Research Establishment (BRE), demonstrated that Carrier's OptiClean air scrubber and negative air pressure machine cuts levels of airborne particulates in the critical size range (up to 1µm diameter), which encompasses viruses and virus-containing aerosolised droplets, by around two thirds within 30 minutes.
