Research to improve indoor air quality on planes and in homes and to protect occupants in government buildings has been funded by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).

Twelve students have been approved to receive a total of $100,000 through ASHRAE’s grants-in-aid program, which is designed to encourage students to continue their education in preparation for service in the HVAC&R industry.

The recipients were chosen by the Society’s Research Administration Committee at the 2005 Winter Meeting held Feb. 5-9. The grants are awarded to full-time graduate students of ASHRAE-related technologies. Fifty-five applications were received.

Results from the projects may be incorporated in the ASHRAE Handbook, which is the most widely used reference book in the HVAC&R industry.
