“…In addition, a CO2 and PM 2.5 filtration capacity of 74% and 81% respectively was achieved. [ 191 ] 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30% of polystyrene (PS) in DMF PA-6 solutions at concentrations of 10, 15, 20 and 25% of PA-6 were prepared in FA 5, 10, 15, and 20% (TPU) were dissolved in DMF/THF (1/1, v / v ) Collector: rotating metal roller covered with a polypropylene piece, at 180 rpm. Distance 15 cm Rate: 100 mm cm −1 Temperature 25 °C A submicron fibrous layer of TPU, a pearly fibrous layer of PS and an ultrafine nanofibrous layer of PA-6 were successively prepared.…”

Air transports several pollutants, including particulate matter (PM), which can produce cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Thus, it is a challenge to control pollutant emissions before releasing them to the environment. Until now, filtration has been the most efficient processes for removing PM. Therefore, the electrospinning procedure has been applied to obtain membranes with a high filtration efficiency and low pressure drop. This review addressed the synthesis of polymers that are used for fabricating high-performance membranes by electrospinning to remove air pollutants. Then, the most influential parameters to produce electrospun membranes are indicated. The main results show that electrospun membranes are an excellent alternative to having air filters due to the versatility of the process, the capacity for controlling the fiber diameter, porosity, high filtration efficiency and low-pressure drop.
