INSIDE INNOVATION

Advanced Particle Removal Technology (APART), developed over five years by research scientists and technologists at the University of Washington’s Sensors, Energy, and Automation Laboratory, reinvents Electrostatic Precipitator technology.

APART™ eliminates permanent metal collection plates which are responsible for the performance limitations and maintenance costs of traditional ESP.  Instead, the technology employs a high-capacity disposable cartridge of dense foam plates, each encasing a conductive core.  As the conductive core draws charged particles inward, they are permanently captured in the open cell foam.

Constant Effectiveness

Over the cartridge life, APART provides constant effectiveness at a lower cost, with less energy usage, and with less maintenance than comparable HEPA systems. Unlike mechanical HEPA-style filtration, there is no filter to clog, so airflow is improved for lower energy use, lower cost, and quieter operation; The APART collection media has a longer life, as well.

Flexible Applications

In partnership with companies and organizations, Agentis Air employs APART technology to improve the air-filtration capabilities of a wide range of products and systems. Potential applications include portable air purifiers, commercial HVAC systems, air exchangers, and dynamic air-filtration systems using sophisticated, building-control sensor data.
