Bio-aerosol Filtration of Protective Materials

Discipline: Basic microbiology; physics; aerosol science and technology

Project Description:
The project aims to understand the aerosolisation characteristics and mechanism of bio-aerosol penetration through protective fabrics.

The challenge of the project: Establish sporulation techniques for different types of Class 1 bacteria spores, attain a sustainable bio-aerosol concentration under different environmental conditions, particularly challenging for low concentration at low wind flow. Understand the mechanism of bio-aerosol filtration in CB protective fabrics.

Pre-requisite:
Basic microbiology; physics; aerosol science and technology
