Title: A Scalable Method of Applying Heat and Humidity for Decontamination of N95 Respirators During the COVID-19 Crisis

    Snippet: For all four mask types studied, there was no significant drop between the control group and the test group masks. Additionally, all of the masks demonstrated a filtration efficiency significantly above the 95% threshold for N95 respirators. The test group mask results were averaged together, but there were also no individual masks that showed an efficiency below the 95% standard. One mask of each type was also run through a 30 minute loading tes.....
    Document: For all four mask types studied, there was no significant drop between the control group and the test group masks. Additionally, all of the masks demonstrated a filtration efficiency significantly above the 95% threshold for N95 respirators. The test group mask results were averaged together, but there were also no individual masks that showed an efficiency below the 95% standard. One mask of each type was also run through a 30 minute loading test to simulate the performance change when particles accumulated on the mask during the usage. During this test, the minimum efficiency for all masks remained over the 95% standard. While the pressure drop for each mask changed by up to 20%, all masks were still well below the maximum resistance to airflow specified by NIOSH ( [18] 42 CFR 84.180).
