Providing the world’s cleanest air outside the South Pole

Air sampling has been done at the South

Pole since the 1950s and the Antarctic

is the only area in the Southern

Hemisphere where the purest air can

be found. Just ask Camfil Farr Italy,

which helped sponsor an exploratory

expedition to the South Pole in 2008.

Checking air on this truly remote continent is

like taking a person's blood pressure. It is a

way to measure the health of the world’s air

on a daily basis. Since there are no towns or

cities and no population centres, the atmos-

phere over Antarctica is extremely clean and

unpolluted. This gives scientists a chance to

study an almost pure atmosphere, discover the

chemicals and particles in the air, and determine

their concentrations.

Many Camfil Farr customers also require

“South Pole” air conditions in their industries to

ensure the cleanest, safest and most efficient

production environment. When they want the

cleanest of air, they don’t have to join an expedi-

tion and head south – they can get it right in

their home country with our Absolute high-tech

filters, one of many Camfil Farr products for a

cleaner world.

In 2009, Camfil Farr is implementing

“Camfilcairing”, a Group-wide initiative and

programme to further develop and maintain

sustainable business practices.

The MDS is scheduled for launch in August or

September this year on NASA’s space shuttle

(see separate article). But this is not Camfil

Farr’s first venture into space – we also devel-

oped the filters for the Mars Pathfinder mission

(1997) to prevent contamination of the Martian

atmosphere from bacteria and spores.

Italian project

The MDS is an investigation of Agenzia Spaziale

Italiana (ASI), the Italian space agency. The

system has been designed and developed by

Thales Alenia Space in Italy. The space study will

use a mouse model to investigate the genetic

mechanisms underlying bone mass loss in the

microgravity conditions of space. The MDS will

support mice onboard the space station during

long exploration missions (100 to 150 days) by

providing space, food, water, ventilation and

lighting.

Mice can be accommodated either individu-

ally (maximum 6) or in groups (4 pairs). When

transported in the shuttle later this year, the

MDS will be located mid-deck during uploading

and downloading. On the ISS, it will be deployed

in the U.S. Destiny laboratory, where the experi-

ment will be conducted. The two-chamber MDS

will provide all the comforts mice need in the

form of food and water dispensers and exercise

devices.

Filters for a mouse house, in a space placeIs Camfil Farr engaged in rodent research? Hardly, but we have developed the air filters for the innovative “Mouse Drawer System” (MDS) that will be used for the first live-animal science investigation on the International Space Station (ISS) since the project was started ten years ago.

On behalf of the Group’s Italian subsidiary and

its customer, ASI, Camfil Farr’s R&D Department

in Sweden has custom-designed, built and sup-

plied five different types of filters for the MDS to

prevent possible microbiological contamination

through air exchanged between the ISS cabin

and the MDS.

Filters under the cage floor will collect waste

produced by the mice and clean air circulating

through the cages. These filters are equipped

with specially selected Gigapleat media, as well

as silica gel and other media.

The inlet and outlet air filters will remove

particulate and bacteria in the ISS cabin. These

filters also use specially selected Gigapleat

media, plus hEPA media.

Pre-filters will protect the upper parts of

the air circuit devices, and post-filters the lower

parts when the operator changes the waste

filters.

“One of the most challenging aspects of

this project was to keep the weight of the filters

below specification by using as little glue as

possible, while also keeping the filters leak-free

and durable within the very tight tolerances

of +/- 0.5 mm,” says Christian lindahl, who

specializes in filter development at the R&D

Department in Sweden.

Of mice and men – and a womanThe MDS with Camfil Farr filtration will be used

for STS-128, an assembly mission with the

Discovery space shuttle to the International

Space Station. liftoff is targeted in August or

September 2009. The flight is one of six NASA

missions planned for 2009.

STS-128 will launch the Multi-Purpose

logistics Module leonardo packed with science

and storage racks, including the MDS, for the

International Space Station. The mission will

include three spacewalks to remove and replace

a materials processing experiment outside the

European Space Agency’s Columbus module

and return an empty ammonia tank assembly.

The crew, with one exception, is all-Ameri-

can. Rick Sturckow will command space shuttle

Discovery on the STS-128 mission. Kevin Ford

will serve as the pilot. Mission specialists are

Danny Olivas, Patrick Forrester, Jose hernandez

and European Space Agency astronaut Christer

Fuglesang (Sweden). The mission will deliver a

new station crew member to the outpost, Nicole

Stott, and return Tim Kopra to Earth.

New in space

Nicole, an American and the only female mission

specialist on the mission, will return to Earth

Researching bone mass loss

So what is the connection between humans,

bone mass loss, mice and space? It is an

established fact that astronauts suffer from

significant loss of bone mass (osteoporosis)

during long space flights, simply because their

skeletons are not subjected to Earth’s normal

gravitational load.

The ISS Medical Project office has devel-

oped countermeasures to hinder the rapid loss

of bone mass in astronauts but it continues to

be a persistent problem. Because the micro-

gravity of space is considered by the scientific

community as an accelerated model for study-

ing terrestrial osteoporosis, results obtained in

the upcoming MDS space experiment will facili-

tate the understanding of genetic elements that

protect people from the bone disease. An esti-

mated 44 million people suffer from it today.

MDS will test the hypothesis that mice

with increased bone density are likely to be

more protected from osteoporosis, when the

increased bone mass is a direct effect of a gene

involved in skeletogenesis (skeleton formation).

Mice have been selected because there is a

remarkable similarity between the human and

mouse genome.

Five custom filters from Camfil Farr

Sensors at the air inlet of the two MDS cham-

bers will measure air temperature, air humid-

ity and CO2 and Nh3 concentrations. The air

conditioning system will generate a continuous

air flow of 0.1 m/s through the cages to renew

air and remove waste products. Air renewal is

performed by exchanging about 5% of the total

air within the ISS cabin to eject carbon dioxide

and inject oxygen.

Sweden’s astronaut

The international Camfil Farr Group is based

in Sweden and we are naturally pleased that

Christer Fuglesang will be representing the

country and Europe on board STS-128. He

entered the Mission Specialist Class at NASA

Johnson Space Center, Houston, in August

1996, and qualified for flight assignment as a

mission specialist in April 1998. Christer is a

member of ESA’s European Astronaut Corps,

whose home base is the European Astronaut

Center located in Germany. He has prior space

flight experience from 2006 on board Space

Shuttle Discovery for flight STS-116 to the ISS.

During his mission, he participated in three

spacewalks and will undertake two of three

walks planned for STS-128 this year.

Rick Sturckow has solid experience from

three previous ISS space missions: he flew as

the commander of STS-117 in 2007, and was

the pilot of STS-105 in 2001 and STS-88 in

1998. Kevin Ford and Jose Hernandez are flying

their first space missions. Danny Olivas flew as

a mission specialist and conducted two space-

walks during STS-117 in 2007. Patrick Forrester

flew as a mission specialist on STS-117 in 2007

and on STS-105 in 2001. He has also conduct-

ed four spacewalks. Tim Kopra will be launched

to the International Space Station with the crew

of STS-127, scheduled for May this year. All are

from the U.S.

Filters that work hand-in-glove with containment

Camfil Farr Sweden has also been one of the air filter suppliers for the Portable Glovebox

(PGB), a multi-user facility for biological research during long-duration space flights on

the ISS. The PGB has been engineered and manufactured by Bradford Engineering in the

Netherlands, a subcontractor to ESA.

The PGB is qualified for NASA’s U.S. Destiny lab, the European Space Agency’s

Columbus lab and the Russian segment. It provides two levels of containment, the first

being the enclosure itself (box, gloves, filters) and the second level being realized through

negative pressure inside the box. For the application of the PGB with MDS, a dedicated

Interface Adapter has been developed by Bradford Engineering, as subcontractor to Thales

Alenia Space. The Interface Adapter provides the possibility to connect the PGB to MDS. In

this configuration, maintenance on the MDS can be performed with the two levels of contain-

ment present. For this dedicated application, the inlet and outlet filters have been supplied

by Camfil Farr Sweden and are similar to the filters used in the MDS (see article). They also

use specially selected Gigapleat media.

The PGB allows astronauts and researchers to perform small experiments on the ISS,

greatly improving flexibility in operations.

Sundry filters for First SolarFirst Solar develops technologies that drive down the cost of solar energy, making it a sustainable alternative to conventional energy sources.

The company produces solar modules with an

advanced thin-film semiconductor process and

Energy giants like the Royal Dutch/Shell Group,

Russia’s Gazprom and Exxon Mobil participated

in this first pipeline project. So did Camfil Farr

Power Systems (CFPS), which supplied a total

of 36 Tenkay hemipleat filter houses for instal-

lation on 30 MW gas turbines running gas

compressors at 18 gas compression stations

along the pipeline.

Each filter house for this project consisted

of 240 filter elements. Tenkay hemipleat is

designed for pulse cleaning cartridges and uses

state-of-the-art pleating technology for superior

performance. Synthetic beads hold the pleats

more open and the wider space in the hemipleat

design allows greater media utilisation and more

effective filtration with considerably lower pres-

sure drop and longer service life. The filter’s new

PolyTech media is the most advanced pulse-

cleaned media ever made.

Fuelling national expansion

China’s leaders might be forecasting slower

growth for its turbocharged economy but the

country’s huge appetite for energy remains.

Natural gas is a substantial source. China’s

natural gas is found mostly in the west of the

country while the market for the fuel is in the

east. Western China’s natural gas reserves

are estimated at 22,400 billion cubic metres,

representing some 60 percent of the total for

China as a whole.

Many years of exploration have revealed

four national-scale gas fields in the Tarim,

Qaidam, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia, and Sichuan-

Chongqing basins. By the end of 2008, the

country had proven gas reserves of 2,500

billion cubic meters with an annual production

capacity of 18 billion cubic metres.

Second pipeline in progress

After the successful completion of the first

pipeline, China National Petroleum Corporation

(CNPC) has now started to build a second

West-East Gas Pipeline, called WEPP2, linking

Turkmenistan to China’s Guangdong province.

This is currently one of the world’s largest pipe-

line projects and is expected to diversify China’s

energy supply and reduce future dependence on

Russian gas.

The pipeline will have a total length of 8,704

km, consist of one trunk line and eight sub-lines,

cross 15 regions and carry 30 billion cubic

metres of natural gas every year to Zhejiang,

Shanghai, Guangdong and hong Kong, among

other areas. Gas will also be taken from fields in

Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.

CFPS sole filter supplier

For this project CFPS has been selected as the

only filter house supplier for gas turbines along

the entire pipeline. The gas turbines, generating

30 MW each, will be installed at 14 gas com-

pression stations. The planned scope of supply

involves 34 filter houses for the pipeline section

in China and nine in Uzbekistan. All 43 are iden-

tical in design and 240 Tenkay hemiPleat filter

elements have been specified for the project.

Orders have been received to date for a

large number of houses, and if all contracts are

awarded as planned, the finished pipeline will

use a total of 16,800 Tenkay hemiPleat filter

elements.

In the pipeline again with hemiPleat®

One of the original four large infrastructure projects in China’s tenth five-year

plan (2001-05) was the construction of the West-East Gas Pipeline, which

transports clean fuel from Xinjiang to the energy-hungry Yangtze River Delta.

Optimum filtration for Yangzijiang

Yangzijiang, a family-owned pharmaceutical

company in China, employs Good Manufacturing

Process (GMP) standards to assure quality in all

stages of its drug manufacturing process and

knows the value of using the right air filters to

guarantee production.

Seeing how Camfil Farr air filters were

already being used in the company’s high-

temperature sterilizing equipment and Class

100 laminar flow equipment, Yangzijiang turned

to Camfil Farr China for a solution incorporating

a life Cycle Cost/Total Cost of Ownership (lCC/

TCO) approach.

hi-Flo and Opakfil filters were recommend-

ed, and after one-year of monitoring and data

analysis, the products were proved to offer

many advantages, such as energy savings in

addition to effective high filtration efficiency.

Wyeth China

Wyeth Nutrition has been a leader in infant and

paediatric nutrition. The company is also a top

competitor in consumer health care products.

These products are produced all over the world,

including China.

During 2008 Camfil Farr China provided

clean air solutions for Wyeth Consumer

healthcare and Wyeth Nutritional in Shanghai,

including coarse filters and fine filters for air

handling units, air supply terminals for clean-

rooms, air exhaust control equipment and dust

collector systems.

Shanghai Techcomp

Shanghai Techcomp Instrument ltd. is a

scientific instrument manufacturer in China. As a

strategic partner and OEM for Nuair, Techcomp

has developed rapidly and become an important

supplier of biological safety cabinets in China.

Since the company’s Class 2 safety cabinet

is a single-fan system with 70% supply air and

30% exhaust air, the low pressure drop of the

cabinet’s Camfil Farr filters is essential to main-

tain air flow, ensuring high biosafety standards.

Perfect painting at Fengshen

As a well-known air conditioning equipment

manufacturer, the Fengshen Group has

co operated with Camfil Farr to provide clean

air solutions that protect material during the

shipbuilding process.

When liquid petroleum gas (lPG) cargo

ships are built, the walls of the ship’s hold walls

must be painted with a special coating that is

expensive and easily corrupted by atmospheric

gases. CamCarb and CityCarb filters remove

harmful SO2, NO2 and h2S gases effectively,

ensuring a perfect painting process.

Serving the diverse Chinese marketIn China, Camfil Farr has been

providing air filtration systems to

ensure clean processes in a variety

of industries ranging from pharma-

ceuticals to scientific instrument

production. Here are some recent

examples.

Sleepyhead (Auckland, New Zealand)

has been at the forefront of bed

manufacturing and bedding tech-

nology for more than 60 years. The

company’s new factory complex is

one of the biggest in Australasia. It is

also one of the most technologically

advanced bed manufacturing plants

in the world.

In 2008, Sleepyhead decided to bring manu-

facturing of polyurethane foam to the plant,

which is an essential raw material in-house.

Polyurethane foam manufacturing involves

toluene di-isocyanate (TDI) – a chemical that

can be hazardous to humans and the wider

environment if it is not handled with care, even

in very small amounts.

Enclosing the foam process

To protect process operators, near neigh-

bours and the external environment, it is good

practice to enclose the foam process, pro-

vide extract ventilation and filter the exhaust

stream to remove all traces of TDI prior to

release to atmosphere.

Sleepyhead visited a Camfil Farr refer-

ence installation at a foam producer in the UK

and requested Camfil to design and install a

TDI filter for the Auckland foam facility.

Camfil in New Zealand and the UK co-

operated to complete the contract. Today, the

foam facility is now operational, the filter is

removing the TDI and compliance is assured

with all regulations. Now everyone can sleep

easy in their beds at night. This installation is

one of many that Camfil Farr has provided to

foam producers around the world.

The mine is replacing the old collectors and

wet scrubbers with Gold Series collectors and

hemiPleat® cartridge filters on numerous

transfer points and primary, secondary, and

tertiary crushers.

Camfil Farr GS technology, like the GS72

used for secondary ore crushing (photo to

right), is expected to make the crushing process

more reliable and efficient, reduce emissions

and minimize maintenance issues. The first GS

unit is performing successfully now, with the

remaining units slated for start-up in 2009.

The products

Gold Series dust and fume collectors are used

for a wide variety of pollution control and prod-

uct recovery applications in industry and known

for combining enhanced performance with ease

of service while cleaning the work environment

of irritating dust and fumes.

The hemiPleat cartridge uses state-of-the-

art pleating technology. Synthetic beads hold

the pleats of the cartridge open with wide pleat

spacing not found in competitive cartridges,

which are packed too tightly to maximize

media use. The wider spacing of the hemiPleat

design exposes more media to the gas stream

and results in lower pressure drop as well

as improved cartridge release characteristics

during pulse cleaning.

The golden touch for copper

In 2008, Camfil Farr Air Pollution

Control in the U.S. received the largest

single order ever for its popular Gold

Series® dust collectors. During the

previous year, Camfil Farr APC helped

a leading copper mine in the U.S.

become more efficient by providing a

dust collection solution that improved

air quality and reduced emissions to

one one-hundreth of former levels.

A sister division wanted similar results

and came to Camfil Farr APC for help.

Camseal and Megalam in the City of SailsStarship Children’s hospital in the heart of

Auckland, known as the City of Sails, was New

Zealand's first for children and their health

needs. Specially designed to appeal to young

people, the facility is built around a central

atrium with a rainforest theme, a playground

and natural light.

Camfil Farr’s subsidiary in New Zealand

recently won a significant order for Camseal

filter housings and Megalam hEPA filters for

a suspended tiled ceiling that was installed

in connection with the refurbishment of the

hospital’s bone marrow wards on level 7.

The 112 Camseal housings were designed

around the new ceiling and are well suited to

provide comfort and hygiene for immuno-

compromised children.

Camseal is a reloadable filtered diffuser

designed to hold the hEPA Megalam terminal

filtration stage. The solution is used for more

reliable, simpler and safer risk control in sensi-

tive environments.

When it opens in 2009 (Phase 1 and 2), and is completely finished in 2015, Qatar’s

New Doha International Airport (NDIA) will accommodate 24 million passengers and

750,000 metric tons of cargo annually. It will feature two of the longest commercial

runways in the world, an 85-meter-high control tower, a 510,000-square-meter

passenger terminal with 40 gates and a separate terminal for the Emir of Qatar.

Citysorb for Qatar’s new gateway to the world

Camfil Farr’s largest Citysorb order to date

was won in connection with the NDIA project.

This high-efficiency compact molecular filter is

designed for addressing IAQ issues in public

and commercial buildings. At NDIA, more than

1,300 Citysorbs will be installed in air handling

units serving the airport’s passenger terminals

and aircraft maintenance hangar.

Camfil Farr offers an entire range of air

filters to satisfy all demands from airports.

These products eliminate the nuisance of exter-

nal pollutants and provide clean and comfort-

able indoor air for the travelling public and

airport staff.

The louvered CamVane is typically installed

in marine environments, coastal areas and

by other major sources of moisture, such as

rivers.

The product has been installed at a number

of facilities in Sweden, including one of the

largest medical universities in Europe – the

Karolinska Institute in Stockholm – where

CamVane prevents snow from being drawn into

the air handling system for the sensitive hospi-

'Out-louvering' rain or snow

tal environment. The louvered system has also

been sold to the Malmö Sports Arena (photo

above), where 45 CamVanes outmanoeuvre – or

should we say “out-louver” – drifting snow.

Installed upstream and/or downstream of

particulate filters, CamVane is also used to pre-

vent water droplets from entering the air-intake

filtration systems of gas turbines and turbo

machinery.

Test gains with CamVane

Differentiating the performance properties of

CamVane versus competitor products is highly

important and Camfil Farr has developed a new

method to better evaluate and verify the prod-

uct’s efficiency in tests.

Historically, the efficiency of weather protec-

tion systems has been tested by measuring the

quantity of water bypassing the vanes. In the

new method, the efficiency of CamVane is deter-

mined on separate droplet sizes down to 1 µm

to disting uish its performance more accurately

than before in comparison tests with competing

systems.

The new test method uses a warm thread

droplet counter. A pressure cleaner generates

the droplet mist and the test is conducted

at various air flows. High humidity conditions

are maintained during the test to prevent the

droplets from evaporating, which is crucial for

achieving true test results.

Camfil Farr Power Systems’ product range includes the CamVane droplet

separator, a heavy-duty and highly effective rain protection unit solving

moisture problems that affect the performance of ventilation systems.

In 2008, Camfil Farr moved its headquarters

in Sweden from Trosa to an office building

in downtown Stockholm that was originally

constructed in the 1880s but completely

renovated in 2004.

Several hundred people work in the build-

ing for several companies and the owner and

real estate management company, Bonnier

Cityfastigheter, is careful to provide a pleasant,

functional and comfortable working environ-

ment for tenants. The building is located on

Sveavägen, one of Stockholm’s main streets,

where traffic can be intense at times.

To ensure the highest indoor air quality

for offices and save energy, we recommend-

ed Bonnier to install our new energy-efficient

City-Flo XL filters in air handling units.

Practicing what we preachFor better indoor air quality

Representing Camfil Farr’s latest filter develop-

ment in the City series for “urban jungles”,

City-Flo XL is a dual-action, combination particle

and molecular filter with low pressure drop that

effectively removes particles, harmful gases

and odours. It is typically installed to replace

a bag filter or compact filter in new or existing

air handling systems for office buildings, shops,

shopping centres, schools and other public

buildings located near streets or roads where

vehicle traffic is heavy.

City-Flo XL is very efficient against ozone

and also removes gaseous polycyclic aromatic

hydrocarbons. It comes in two different lengths:

520 mm and 640 mm, both with ten filter

pockets.

600s for cleaner air in a warehouse facility. At a sports

arena, a CamCleaner 80 has been installed in a special

room for people with severe allergies, allowing them to

attend events.

CamCleaners use the most efficient HEPA micro-filters.

The product comes in four models: CamCleaner 30

for small offices and rooms; CamCleaner 80 for com-

mercial and public buildings; CamCleaner 200 for large

premises and industry; and CamCleaner 600 for more

demanding production environments. All models can be

used as mobile units. The 200 and 600 models can also

be installed on the floor or in the ceiling.
