How To Tackle Dust Challenges in The Plastics Recycling Industry?

  Plastics are one of the greatest inventions to come out of humanity. The problem with the excessive amount of plastic in our world has become a global concern at present, and a lot of people are finding ways to solve this problem. One of those solutions is the recycling process.  Recycling is the process of repossessing materials that can be used again instead of being disposed of in landfills or incineration. Quality recycled plastics are much more durable and less prone to damage than virgin plastics. Many consumers like the plastics they find in their products after recycling them, or simply use the recycled products as home decorating items. The recycling of plastics does not just create alternative forms of plastic. It creates a few additional problems for the environment. It is a perfect example of the tragedy of the commons, in which people choose to ignore an overwhelming amount of data that proves their actions are harmful to others and themselves. Although some peop

Why IAQ Is Important to Your School & Universities?

  Currently, all the educational institutions in India are in the phase of reopening the schools and universities. On the other hand, the school, university staff, and parents are worried about the steep increase in COVID19 infections. The most recent reports also revealed that in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India alone 13.42 per cent of children have contributed to the daily Covid count. One of the key reasons for the rapid spread of COVID19 is due to airborne transmission [especially in indoor environments]. So, whether your educational institution is open already or is reopening soon, good indoor air quality (IAQ) is an important part of maintaining healthy indoor environments during the pandemic and beyond. Unlike other buildings, the education institutions Occupants are close together, with the typical school having approximately four times as many occupants as office buildings for the same amount of floor space. The presence of a variety of pollutant sources, including: Art and science

Why do Hotels, and Restaurants Need Air Purifiers?

The hospitality industry is a broad category of fields within the service industry that incorporates accommodation, food and beverage services, event planning, fun & leisure activities, occasionally professional meetings with the clients, etc. The hotel and restaurant industry has traditionally been brick-and-mortar based, but now it is increasingly moving online, generating more revenue.

How Does Air Pollution Affect Life Expectancy in India’s Capital?

  Air pollution is increasing and air quality in Delhi is deteriorating each year. The Indian capital is one of the most polluted cities in the world, with carcinogenic chemicals, nitrogen dioxide, and sulphur dioxide being emitted from vehicles and industry — these pollutants cause diseases including asthma, lung cancer, and even heart attacks. The World Health Organization (WHO) has labeled the city’s air quality as “very unhealthy” for days that are not windy. This means that it is worse than the pollution levels in Beijing, China, or Tehran, Iran, which were once designated as the world’s worst cities for air quality. According to a new study (The Air Quality Life Index® & The Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC), the air pollution in Delhi could lead to ten years of life lost in the next two decades, and that’s not even counting the damage done on account of burning rich fuel. Millions of people are exposed to unhealthy levels of pollution every day which causes respirator

How to Tackle Excessive Ethylene In Fruits & Vegetables Warehouses?

  The ripening of fleshy fruits represents the unique harmonization of developmental and biochemical pathways leading to changes in color, texture, aroma, and high nutritional qualities. The gaseous plant hormone ethylene (natural ripening agent in fruits and vegetables) is also an important contributor of nutrition and fiber to the diets of humans. Some fruits and vegetables are more sensitive to ethylene than others, and often they tend to be kept separately. Ethylene  is one of the newest gases being used in fruit and vegetable storage. It is a gas that is released when ripe or damaged fruit is stored. The recommended practice in fruits and vegetable warehouses is to keep ethylene producing items separately from non producing items. Even a small amount of ethylene gas leakage during shipping and storage will accelerate the process of the decay of fresh items. Further, some of the storage providers will use the gases like nitrogen and  sulphur gas  to hamper the high concentrations o

Air Filtration Solutions for Sandstorm in UAE

  The UAE is just the latest country in the path of sandstorms that have smothered Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Iran and others in recent days, closing airports and schools and sending thousands to hospital with breathing problems. Capital city Abu Dhabi's air quality index (AQI) soared into the "hazardous" zone overnight, according to waqi.info and the Plume pollution app. The Middle East's sandstorms are becoming more frequent and intense, a trend associated with overgrazing and deforestation, overuse of river water and more dams. Experts say the phenomenon could worsen as climate change warps regional weather patterns and drives desertification. AAF has a solution for this too, the  S-Trap inertial filters  is designed as a bolt-on pre-filter for air handling units, engines and other machinery in areas with sand or dust storms or with exposure to heavy dust loads. The S-Trap HD (STHD) casing and other critical parts are made from thicker 3mm steel and welded togethe

AAF Saudi pioneer in the Clear Air Solutions, Pure IAQ Solutions provider and air filter manufacturer

  Did you know that there is a huge difference in the quality of air that we breathe in indoor spaces and outdoor spaces? Moreover, the surprising factor is that indoor air pollution is considerably higher than outdoors! Market reports have proven that we spend 90 percent of our time in an indoor space. These indoor spaces may be either in the house or in the office. The air that we breathe in indoor spaces has a substantial impact on our health. Everyday items such as cleaning agents, paints, and furniture make a substantial contribution to bad indoor quality. They release pollutants/ contaminants in the form of particulate and gas-phase, which can trigger or worsen asthma and allergies. The air filtration solutions that we use to tackle impure air, improve the indoor air quality level and ensure circulation of clean air in any room, be it domestic spaces, commercial offices, private rooms, operating theaters, laboratories, or in the cleanrooms required by industry.
