Abstract
To increase the enthalpy exchange efficiency of ERV elements, the moisture exchange character must be improved. The moisture exchange efficiency depends on material characteristics. The material used for ERV is Hwang-to paper based on Han-ji which is Korean traditional paper. The paper has excellent performance in moisture exchange and heat transfer compared with polymer and other papers. To have an anti bacteria performance and to improve moisture exchange performance of Han-ji, Hwang-to is added to the Han-ji. The enthalpy exchange efficiency of the Hwang-to paper shows 5% greater than that of the conventional paper. In case of Escherichia Coli, the reduction rate of bacteria is 96.6% and in case of Pseudomonas, the reduction rate of bacteria is 97.5%. The ERV element made of Hwang-to paper has a great possibility as an ERV element.
