Evaluation of efficient combination UVC , filtration and heating unit for clean warm air.

** 适用于新一代住宅的新型组合式清洁空气和温暖房间单元。**这项拟议的研究评估了一个前瞻性概念的可行性，即设计一个空气过滤、消毒和处理系统，该系统将与一个集成的电加热系统相结合，以经济实用的形式提供可控和环境舒适的室内生活体验。（Jenton International -牵头; AirGard Systems和Colt International），科学家（De Montfort University，DMU）和住宅区（藏红花巷邻里理事会，莱斯特SLNC），以确保社区和技术-设计创新和高效的室内污染物提取系统。我们认为这是一个可持续和有效的解决方案，以改变未来的为弱势群体提供供暖和空气质量，他们既是燃料匮乏的受害者，也是空气质量差的受害者。该解决方案将英国政府的清洁空气战略重点与面对气候危机以及最近对空气中细菌和病毒的日益关注而从无化石燃料供暖转换的需求交织在一起。我们提出的技术采用了将污染提取与空气流动/加热系统相结合的综合方法，利用室内环境中污染物扩散的对流性质和污染物提取到目前为止，便携式空气净化器一直是主要用于住宅环境中的室内空气过滤（主要是灰尘PM2.5）。其他杀菌技术涉及在非热等离子体反应器中通过电晕放电产生的臭氧，但由于地面臭氧产生和高电力需求，在家庭使用中不太受欢迎。不同波长的紫外线既能分解挥发性有机化合物，又能消毒空气中的病原体。此外，为确保建议的解决方案在英国国内环境中的脆弱人群中具有长期可行性，项目团队将在产品开发（第一阶段）和现场评估（第二阶段）中采用综合方法，以适应气候变化对空气交换的影响，英国住宅的湿度和相应的加热/冷却能源需求。参与的公司将共同开发和提出一种简单的单一室内单元，该单元将在单个房间级别过滤，处理，加热和循环空气-智能控制。热的再利用和组件的共享将有助于实现比目前更可持续的供暖和空气质量解决方案，特别是满足弱势群体的需求。

**New combination cleaner air and warmer room units for new generation housing.**This proposed study evaluates the feasibility of a forward-looking concept to devise an air filtration, disinfection and treatment systems, which will be combined with an integral electric heating system to allow a controlled and environmentally comfortable interior living experience in an economically practical form.The project is a collaboration between industry (Jenton International -lead; AirGard Systems and Colt International), scientists (De Montfort University, DMU) and housing estate (Saffron Lane Neighbourhood Council, Leicester SLNC) to ensure a community- and technology-informed design of an innovative and efficient indoor pollutant extraction system.We consider this as a sustainable and effective solution to transform the future of heating and air quality for vulnerable population, which are both victim of fuel poverty and poor air quality. This solution intertwines the UK government's clean air strategic priority with the needs for switching from fossil-free heating in the face of the climate crisis and recent increased concern regarding airborne bacteria and viruses.Our proposed technology adopts an integrated approach by coupling the pollution extraction with the air flow/heating system, capitalising on the convective nature of pollution dispersion in the indoor environment and the pollution extraction (both chemical and biological) using both filtration and UVc.To date, portable air purifiers have been the mostly only been used in residential settings for indoor air filtration (mainly dust PM2.5). Other germicidal techniques involving ozone generated by corona discharge in non-thermal plasma reactor have been less popular for domestic use owing to ground-level ozone generation and high electricity demands. UVC at different wavelengths can both break down VOCs and disinfect airborne pathogens.Further, to ensure long-term viability of the proposed solution for vulnerable population in UK domestic setting, the project team will adopt a comprehensive approach over the product development (phase 1) and its field evaluation (phase 2) to accommodate for the influence of climate change in influencing air exchanges, humidity in UK housing and the corresponding heating/cooling energy demand.The companies involved will jointly develop and propose a simple and single interior unit which will filter, treat, heat and circulate air at the individual room level -- with intelligent control. Reuse of heat and sharing of components will contribute to a far more sustainable heating and air quality solution than currently available, specifically catering to vulnerable population.
