Aerosol & Gas Filtration
|
Radial-flow air filtration solutions for today’s most demanding applications.
With our experience in chemical and biological air filtration systems, we can design, specify, and supply air filtration solutions for your most demanding applications. Our aerosol and gas filtration systems are ideal for demanding applications - including the removal of toxic gases from exhaust and process airstreams.
Our stainless steel OpenAire™ (SS) Filter System may be the perfect choice for critical applications where decontamination is required. Typical applications include laboratories, research facilities, and environmental remediation equipment. Because our filtration solutions are of military quality, they are well suited for ships, buildings, and vehicles that must operate in severe environments.
Learn why New World was chosen by the U.S. Army to design and deliver the toxic gas filtration systems for their new Advanced Chemistry Laboratory (ACL) by reading our solution brief.
New World offers complete engineering services from concept design through in-service support:
- Sizing and arrangement of toxic gas filtration systems to meet air flow requirements
- Analysis of flow uniformity and pressure drop through CBR Filter Systems
- Determination of equipment requirements for flow control and pressure monitoring
- Equipment installation and testing support through our Field Services team
- Filter system leak testing (aerosol and gas) to ASME N510
- Development of technical reports, test plans, and operation and maintenance manuals
- Sale of replacement parts, including filters and gaskets, from our in-house inventory
- In-service engineering support throughout the life-cycle
We sell and service radial-flow air filtration systems, filters, and monitoring equipment for critical applications.

OpenAire (AL)Gas filtration CBR Filter * Aerosol & gas filtration CBR Filter * We recommend use of aerosol filtration upstream of gas filtration. The CBR Filter contains both aerosol and gas filter elements. Customers may wish to use a separate bank of HEPA filters in lieu of the radial HEPA filters of the CBR Filter.
New World offers air filtration products and services to select foreign customers, and is experienced with the legal transfer of technology using Technical Assistance Agreements (TAAs) and export license documents.
We are committed to supporting our filtration systems as they are deployed throughout the world, and stock a variety of service parts for delivery worldwide.
1. What is the difference between the OpenAire (SS) CBR filter system and the OpenAire (Aluminum) CBR filter systems used in ColPro applications?
The main difference is that the OpenAire (SS) filter systems are constructed of high-grade (304 and 316) stainless steel for assured performance in applications where decontamination solutions will be likely used. These systems also have one filter cover per housing rather than two. This allows for mounting the M98 gas filter or, because of its identical size, the OpenAire HEPA Filter. Finally, these systems have solid front covers with air flowing in through the back and out through the top, side, or bottom. This allows filter servicing outside of the process airstream.2. Will the radial flow CBR Filter Set fit in the OpenAire (SS) CBR filter system?
The OpenAire (SS) CBR filter system was specifically designed to hold the M98 gas (but not HEPA) filter. In applications where both aerosol and gas filtration are required, we recommend use of an upstream HEPA filter bank. If only aerosol filtration is needed, consider using the OpenAire HEPA Filter, which features the same dimensions as the M98 gas filter.3. How do I determine what size OpenAire (SS) CBR filter system I need?
New World’s radial flow CBR filter systems use the M98 gas adsorber, the larger filter element in the CBR Filter Set. The nominal flow rate of this adsorber is 200 cubic feet per minute (cfm). However, some specifications require a flow rate of not more than 150 cfm per filter. The OpenAire (SS) CBR filter system features a bank of filter housings (or tubes) that can be built for filter element positions to 6 filters deep for a nominal flow rate of 1,200 cfm per housing at a flow rate of 200 cfm per filter, or 900 cfm per housing at a flow rate of 150 cfm per filter.
