Tuning Your Scent Environment, Honestly

A practical, plain-language guide to shared-space scent management. Covers why neutral-clean air should be the default in shared environments; why activated carbon and HEPA filtration are the honest baseline; why plug-in ionizer odour eliminators are ineffective; why ozone and hobby plasma devices can be harmful in occupied rooms; how to size a filtration unit by CADR; and how to test air treatment honestly using odour reset and simple observation. Includes references to EPA, CARB AB 2276, ASHRAE, WHO, NIOSH, and Safe Work Australia guidance. Released as a defensive publication to establish prior art on the carbon-first scent management hierarchy, the matched neutral-clean shared-space principle, and the nose-reset testing protocol.

Abstract

A practical, plain-language guide to shared-space scent management. Covers why neutral-clean air should be the default in shared environments; why activated carbon and HEPA filtration are the honest baseline; why plug-in ionizer odour eliminators are ineffective; why ozone and hobby plasma devices can be harmful in occupied rooms; how to size a filtration unit by CADR; and how to test air treatment honestly using odour reset and simple observation. Includes references to EPA, CARB AB 2276, ASHRAE, WHO, NIOSH, and Safe Work Australia guidance. Released as a defensive publication to establish prior art on the carbon-first scent management hierarchy, the matched neutral-clean shared-space principle, and the nose-reset testing protocol.
