Researchers at MIT’s Fluid Dynamics of Disease Transmission Laboratory slowed down more than 50 sneezes on video to reveal that the spray begins in sheets, bags and strings of fluid, eventually separating into droplets of various sizes. This process propels large droplets short distances, but allows microscopic droplets to travel long distances and potentially stay in the air for an extended period of time.
Worker productivity can be influenced by a lot of factors, including the air quality within the workplace, according to a new study.
With 100 or more pets visiting every day, Dr. Adam Conroy and his team at Animal Care Clinic veterinary care center were facing some serious air quality control issues. In addition to an ongoing odor problem, the team was concerned that sick animals could spread airborne pathogens throughout the facility.
Air fresheners have become more than a billion-dollar market in the U.S., capturing the American spirit of convenience and making odor easier to tackle in our busy daily grind. Coming in various forms such as aerosol sprays, scented candles and outlet plug-ins, these products are often used as a catch-all solution to every unpleasant smell, both in homes and shared building spaces. They’re a fast, easy-to-use option that seem like an obvious choice for homeowners, janitorial services and facility managers – at first.
