Energy-Efficient Fume Hood To Begin Field-Testing Phase
After passing industry standards for safety and containment earlier
this year, the energy-efficient high-performance fume hood will
begin field testing this summer. Current research has reduced
air flow to 30 percent of a typical hood installation. Because
less air is flowing through the hood, a building's environmental
conditioning system can be downsized, saving both energy and initial
costs of construction.
The revolutionary low-flow fume hood technology began development
under supervision by Helmut Feustel in 1995. The U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office has issued a patent for the technology. The Applications
Team's Geoffrey Bell and Dale Sartor are currently leading the
research team. Field testing will take place at Montana State
University (MSU) in Bozeman and at the University of California,
San Francisco this fall. Both testing phases will run for several
months. MSU is working with a national team including Berkeley
Lab to design a 21st century academic laboratory that will function
as a showcase for environmental stewardship.
The Applications Team is partnering with several industry leaders
to disseminate information on the fume-hood technology. The research
team is working with Labconco, a prominent fume-hood manufacturer,
to enhance the current fume-hood design. The team is also partnering
with ATMI, a semiconductor distributor, to apply the containment
technology to applications in the microelectronics industry, such
as for wet benches
