Applying air cleaning devices is an effective approach to control targeted indoor gaseous pollutants. It is important to understand the adsorption characteristics of filter media (e.g, activated carbon) at typical indoor application conditions as well as standard test conditions. Tests per ASHRAE Standard 145.1 for filter media performance evaluation can provide a relative comparison among different media. However, as the tests are conducted at elevated gas concentrations (1~100 ppm), they do not represent the media performance under lower concentrations typical of indoor applications (
