The Advanced Technologies for Environmental Conditioning group focuses on developing innovative technologies for thermal, hygrometric and air quality control in buildings and indoor spaces, promoting energy efficiency, the use of renewable sources and environmental sustainability. Key research activities include studying airborne contaminants and emission sources, optimising HVAC components for evaporative cooling, energy recovery and hygrometric control, and designing integrated HVAC systems for buildings. Special attention is given to the preventive conservation of artworks and cultural heritage.
The approach combines experimentation, simulation and modelling, using state-of-the-art equipment such as clean rooms, systems for analysing particulate matter and tracer gases, and tools for testing refrigerants and HVAC components. Current projects include studies on sanitisation methods and contamination control in museums and railway environments.
