INCREASE IN THE MORTALITY RATE

Relationship between PM2.5 and mortality
WHO says
There is no
safe level of
exposure to
PM2.5
US Six Cities Survey indicates PM2.5 exposure is
raising mortality rates across the UK London Region
LONDON
The WHO REVIHAAP Report
2013 advises that the previous
2005 guidelines for PM2.5
10m/m3, annual average and
25 mg/m3, 24h average
are set too high and must be
reduced PM2.5 is a WHO Group1 carcinogen

Good IAQ can increase productivity in office building
A study at a call centre
showed a 10% increase in
operators productivity by
replacing old filters with new
at a higher outdoor air supply

Air pollution has a confirmed health impact
1. Even low concentrations of
PM2,5 impacts health
2. WHO classified Diesel engine

Optimised Low Energy Air Filters save
Money, Energy & Carbon

But also deliver Sustainable Air Quality

Energy has risen in price by 120%
from 2007 to 2013
That is an average rise of about
16% per year over 5 years during a
world recession. Will Energy prices
rise more over the next 5 years?

The Energy Calculation

The cost of ventilation
• The energy requirement for
ventilation is expensive.
• Filters account for approx. 30%
of the total energy cost of the
system. (C.I.B.S.E. data)
• Filters are the most
inexpensive part of the
system to improve.
• Without Capital
Expenditure
30% of total system
pressure loss

Total Cost of Ownership
the Life Cycle Cost for the filter is the cost of the:
• Filters
• Labour
• Energy consumption
• Cleaning of ventilation system
• Disposal of used filter
= LCC

Low Energy Air Filters
deliver clean air to the
required standard with
minimal energy usage
Typically
NO CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

Benefits
• filter savings – typically 10%
• energy savings – typically 30%
• CO2 substantially reduced
• reduced labour – changes freq. 50%
• reduced waste – 50%
• providing a sustainable option
• assist in achieving your environmental targets
• continuous improvements

 200 AHU
 Scaled to 10m3/s each (10 filters pre/sec)
 200 x 20000 Kw/hr
= 4,000,000 Kw/hr
Savings
 200 x £2000
= £400,000
Impact of filter energy saving (200 AHU’s)

• Caring about people and the environment
• Our air filter solutions contribute to
– Healthy indoor air quality
– Reduce our ”carbon footprint”
– Cut energy consumptions
• Camfilcairing launched in 2009 –
a group-wide initiative to further develop
and maintain sustainable business
practices
Sustainability

How we optimise our
Low Energy Air Filter selection
A Hi-flo F7 M7 Bag filter
with 9.2 M2 of micro-fibre
media has the optimum low
pressure drop and
consistent high particulate
efficiency with a longer
working life
BS:EN13779:2007 advises F7 minimum efficiency
