Recenzje

"It is particularly noteworthy that the book is written very clearly, understandably and in simple language, has a good structural content and can therefore be used not only for scientists, engineers, industrial manufacturers and health professionals, but also well for student teaching at universities.  It should be emphasized that the book contains many calculation examples and lists of questions and the associated answers for the individual chapters, which then makes it easy to understand the content in university lessons.

In conclusion, it can be said that this book is particularly relevant at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic and can also make a contribution to defeat this disease." --Wilhelm Hoeflinger

"I am convinced that Wallace Leung's book will find many readers among experienced researchers, as it organizes knowledge on filtration in nonwoven nanofiber filters at various levels of research needs, and among those researchers who are at the stage of defining their scientific interests. The book can also serve as part of the contents for undergraduate and graduate courses in the aerosol, dispersed system, filtration, and separation in the university as well as a good reference for practicing engineers working in the arena of filtration and air quality." --Leon Gradon
