The article sheds light on the intricate composition of wildfire smoke, which encompasses both particulate matter and various gaseous substances. While the particulate matter poses immediate health concerns, gaseous substances like nitrogen dioxide and ozone carry their own set of challenges.

Davidson and Webb emphasize the significance of understanding the differences in particulate sizes, from PM10 to ultrafine particles, and the respective measures in place to filter them out, including the Air Quality Index (AQI) developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The article also delves into the role of HEPA filtration in tackling harmful ultrafine particles.

Additionally, the piece explores the realm of molecular filtration, a domain that Jennifer Webb, the Molecular Segment Manager for Camfil USA, is intimately familiar with. Webb provides insights into how activated carbon, made from carbonized coconut shells, captures gas molecules effectively.

Given the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires, this article underscores the importance of proactive measures, both at the commercial and residential levels, to ensure the safety of indoor air quality.
