Designing and constructing or renovating a modern chemistry laboratory with chemical fume hoods presents numerous challenges. One of the biggest challenges is designing for the fume hoods’ hazardous exhaust air and the required make-up air. This challenge can be drastically simplified, if not eliminated, with the use of filtered ductless fume hoods. What if the majority of that hazardous exhaust were eliminated with no negative impact on the teaching or research performed within the lab? What if we no longer polluted the environment and rather captured and retained the contaminants at their source? What if we could add multi-layers of safety reducing exposure limits wherever your science needed to take you while adding detection methods to ensure exposure risks are limited, all without being tethered to the building infrastructure? During this session, we outline how all this becomes a reality with Erlab’s filtration solutions. 

Using filtered ductless fume hoods provides a breath of fresh air (both figuratively and literally) for the design team, contractors, and lab occupants. During this session, we will detail some of the industry’s best practices for safely using filtered ductless fume hoods to achieve triple bottom-line goals including reduced environmental footprint, enhanced safety and flexibility, and first-cost and operating cost savings. Additionally, multiple national award-winning case studies will be provided, detailing the results and value of using filtered ductless fume hoods instead of traditional polluting ducted fume hoods as well as how we can achieve success with a hybrid approach of ducted and ductless fume hoods. 

Learning objectives:

  1. Understand the impact of ductless fume hoods on a laboratory facility, and how they can capture contaminants and eliminate exhaust with no negative impact on the lab

  2. Learn how fume hood systems can add multiple layers of safety and protection to a research environment in order to protect the occupants and the science/products, as well as the design team and contractors tasked with installing these systems

  3. Discuss best practices for fume hood safety, operation, and installation, and how a lab can be designed to accommodate these systems

  4. Review successful case studies from lab design projects that have incorporated a hybrid approach of ducted and ductless fume hoods
