Air Pollution from Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and NOx has a major impact on the air quality in urban city environments.
In Air Quality Management Areas (AQMA's) Developers and Consultants are under increasing pressure from planning departments to comply with the EU CAFÉ Directive 2008/50/EC for their new build projects. This legislation has created the momentum for high quality and effective solutions to assist in NO2 and NOx mitigation.
To enable Developers and Consultants to overcome the stringent planning conditions, AAC Eurovent have researched and developed the AAC NITROSORB® Media Filter System. This independently tested, dry chemical scrubbing media solution uses patented technology to efficiently remove low concentrations of Nitrogen Dioxide and NOx at the levels typically found in city centres.
When used in conjunction with the AAC Colourcell® Media Filter System, the end user is provided with an important visual indication of the condition of the installed Nitrosorb® media and to when the media may require to be replaced.
The AAC NITROSORB® Media Filter System offers very low pressure drops which are compatible with Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery Units, (MVHR’s), typically 10Pa – 20Pa, and is available in standard and bespoke sizes.
Features and Benefits:
•Accepted by Planners as a proven AQMA mitigation measure
•Independently Tested
•Low Pressure Drop
•Compatible with Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery Units (MVHR)
•Bespoke Design
•Low Cost Solution
•Compact
Many Major House Builders and Consulting Engineers who are working on new build projects in Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) are now specifying and installing the AAC Nitrosorb® Filter System as a proven effective mitigation measure for the removal of Nitrogen Dioxide.
