"Healthy Air at Home: What You Can Monitor, Filter, and Fix"
Register and more info here:
https://www.thenetwork.to/event-details/healthy-air-at-home-what-you-can-monitor-filter-and-fixfrom the event description:
"Wildfire smoke has changed how a lot of Torontonians think about air quality—checking the day’s PM2.5 levels is now part of our summer routine. Wildfires are mostly out of our control, but you can do something about the air in your home.
Join Louise Hidinger, Clean Indoor Air Toronto founder, Chemistry Ph.D, and science writer, who will walk you through how to monitor and improve your home’s indoor air quality.
You'll leave with a clear understanding of how to guard against the worst sources of air pollution, including the combustion byproducts from your gas-burning appliances."

Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) — Operating Principle
A recuperator (heat recovery unit) transfers heat from exhaust air to incoming fresh air without mixing the two streams.
---
How It Works
Two airflows:
Exhaust air (warm, from indoors)
Supply air (cold, from outside)
They pass through a heat exchanger:
separated by plates or channels
no direct mixing
heat transfers through the material (conduction)
Result: → supply air is preheated
→ exhaust air is cooled
→ overall heat loss is reduced---
Types of Recuperators
1. Plate Heat Exchanger
aluminum or plastic plates
efficiency: ~60–90%
no moving parts
2. Rotary (Wheel) Heat Exchanger
rotating drum
transfers heat and some moisture
efficiency: up to ~85–90%
3. Counterflow Heat Exchanger
air streams move in opposite directions
highest efficiency: up to ~95%
---
What Is Transferred
heat (primary)
sometimes moisture (in enthalpy units)
---
Efficiency Example
outside: 0°C
indoor: +22°C
after recovery: ~16–20°C
---
Advantages
reduced heating energy demand
continuous ventilation without major heat loss
improved indoor air quality
---
Limitations
frost formation in winter (needs bypass or preheater)
filter maintenance required
upfront cost
---
Core Idea
A recuperator doesn’t generate heat — it recovers and reuses it.

#Cancer #Bill raises hopes⚕️
"a strong cancer #policy is ultimately #preventive -- it tackles #carcinogenic factors such as unhealthy #food, toxic #environments, & unhealthy #lifestyles.. While #Thailand has made significant progress in #treatment, it has done little on #prevention.. as residents in northern provinces are suffocated by #PM25 #pollution, a majority of #lawmakers (led by Bhumjaithai) voted against the long-needed #cleanair #law, citing its #economic impact"🤔

Good news for those of us living with compromised lung function!
London, San Francisco and Beijing are among 19 global cities that have achieved “remarkable reductions” in air pollution, analysis has found, having slashed levels of two airway-aggravating pollutants by more than 20% since 2010.
The analysis found interventions such as cycle lanes, uptake of electric cars and restrictions on polluting vehicles had helped to drive the improvements.
Beijing and Warsaw topped the ranking for cleaning up fine particulate pollution (PM2.5), reducing levels by more than 45%, while Amsterdam and Rotterdam saw the greatest improvement in nitrogen dioxide (NO2), with cuts of more than 40%.
