AB  - Recently, numerous researchers are interested in the development of new air 
      filter because of air pollution caused by rapid industrialization and 
      urbanization. The major concerns in developing air filters are: pressure drop and 
      filtration efficiency which are considered significant. As the pressure drop 
      increases, the energy consumption becomes high. In this study, we developed a 
      novel air filter (polyurethane fiber mat) for nano size filtration using a mass 
      production electrospinning, which is expected to enhance filtration efficiency 
      and pressure drop effects. To determine the optimal electrospinning conditions 
      for filter efficiency, various concentrations (8, 10, 12 wt/wt%) of thermoplastic 
      polyurethane were prepared and employed. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and 
      Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used for fiber 
      characterization, and finally, efficiency test was conducted to evaluate the 
      filter performance of developed nanofiber-based air filter. From this study, it 
      could be concluded that optimization by adjusting the polymer concentration and 
      electrospinning operating condition was the best efficient alternative method to 
      fabricate nano-fibrous air filter system with improved filtration performance.
