Benefits of a hygienic, efficient and smart solution for ventilation systems in the era of the “New Normal”
Outdoor air ventilation is an effective strategy to control pathogen concentration indoors. We propose an integrated AHU architecture for energy recovery, humidification, system control and continuous monitoring, both to ensure health and safety, and to maximize the overall efficiency.

Session description
Ventilation with external air is one of the most effective strategies to eliminate pathogens from indoor environments.The Air Handling Unit (AHU) is the heart of the ventilation system in commercial buildings and it is designed to achieve this goal.
The guidelines for the reduction of the risk of spreading the Sars-CoV2-19 virus have introduced new operating criteria for ventilation systems, which counterbalance a better healthiness of the air in rooms with a higher energy consumption. Unfortunately, there is no standardized and shared approach to date for the designer to use as a starting point to balance these two different needs. Therefore, engineers should be aware of and pay a greater attention to the identific ...
