See full text

An apparatus and a method are provided for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) air filter to remove airborne molecular contaminants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air within building spaces is disclosed. The air filter comprises a support frame having a shape and size suitable to orient the air filter within a HVAC system. A compound filter medium is retained within the support frame to remove the airborne molecular contaminants and VOCs from air flowing through the HVAC system. A method of removing airborne molecular contaminants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air is disclosed that includes an operation of coupling a first media layer, comprising uniformly disposed pleats, with a second media layer, comprising a woven fiber material, so as to form a compound filter medium.
