A virtual, international learning experience to educate lab owners, operators, designers, engineers, builders, and users on lab sustainability and decarbonization technologies, projects, and programs.
Over the course of three days, you’ll have access to content from around the world to inform your next net-zero, green lab, or sustainable design project. You'll hear from Sustainable Laboratory Award winners, international representatives discussing global decarbonization perspectives, and experts in the lab sustainability field who have been some of the most popular speakers at the I2SL conference and internationally—all from the comfort of your home or office.
All sessions will be live over Zoom, with recordings available to all who register.

Event Summary:
Clean spaces are developed for a variety of applications including pharmaceutical, healthcare, aerospace, microelectronics, food and beverages. The main goal of cleanroom application is to maintain high level of cleanliness in the spaces to minimize cross contamination. Air is the primary carrier of heat, moisture, and contaminants in cleanroom facilities. The flow path of supply air plays an important role in determining the air velocities, air temperatures, particle concentration, and flow path of airborne particles. These factors in turn determine the level of cleanliness and distribution of contaminants in the space. This presentation will first cover basics of cleanroom classifications, and source of contaminants, and then, will focus on the importance of HVAC configuration on airflow distribution and resulting flow path of airborne particles in cleanroom that affect the contaminant removal effectives. In addition, this presentation will also cover role of Air Changes per Hours (ACH), demand control ventilation, cleanroom airlocks, and dynamics of laminar diffusers in cleanrooms.
