EPA Touts Tests Of Air Treatment Technology, Looks To Expand Studies

With COVID-19 disinfection research increasingly focused on air disinfection, EPA scientists say they have seen promising results from novel air treatment technologies, but are warning that real-world conditions make it hard to extrapolate their findings to conditions more variable than controlled laboratory tests. In a Feb. 9 webinar, “COVID-19: Evaluating Aerosol Treatment Technologies,” Office of Research and Development (ORD) scientists said they have had some success testing methods of killing airborne COVID-19 against one another -- a key step toward...
