UBC Okanagan engineers have developed a novel airflow device designed to significantly reduce airborne pathogen exposure indoors. This device captures exhaled aerosols rapidly, effectively minimizing the spread of potentially infectious particles. Initial simulations indicate the system’s performance surpasses conventional ventilation systems in terms of pathogen removal, suggesting a promising solution for improving indoor air quality and mitigating the risk of airborne transmission. The technology offers a potentially significant advancement in creating safer indoor environments.
