Abstract
A module air curtain and recirculation system that can be incorporated into various tables and workstations that provides 1) an effective air curtain between individuals, 2) a reduction of harmful viruses and 3) the ability for two or more people to be in close proximity without having to wear personal protective equipment such as face masks. The apparatus for indoor air filtration and conditioning creates an air curtain between and around people. The device captures aerosolized droplets expelled from occupants and recirculates cleaned air to operate the air curtain while greatly increasing effective air changes per hour in spaces it is employed. While portable room air purifiers are used to improve the air quality of indoor spaces and reduce particles, allergens, and viruses, they do little to stop the person-to-person transmission of viruses. This device solves these deficiencies. Through applied effort, ingenuity, innovation and testing these issues have been solved by the embodiment of the presently disclosed modular system. Employment of this system can allow businesses, schools and restaurants to resume more normal activity.
