In-Place Filter Testing Workshop

On-Site | July 13–17, 2026

The program will be delivered on-site at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston, MA from July 13–17, 2026.

This interactive program prepares participants to test and certify systems containing HEPA filtration and gas-adsorption systems for nuclear and non-nuclear applications. You will learn the latest regulatory requirements for nuclear air cleaning, develop an understanding of filtration theory, and gain the experience needed to maintain air purity with a comprehensive filter system. 

This course explores topics including: 

  • Certification of nuclear and non-nuclear air-cleaning systems 

  • US Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulatory impact on pressurized water reactor and boiling water reactor power plants 

  • US NRC regulations as they pertain to nuclear air- and gas-cleaning systems 

  • Nuclear field testing in relation to ASME nuclear standards N-509 and N-510, Regulatory Guide 1.52, and ASME nuclear code AG-1 

  • Air-filtration and adsorption theory 

  • Aerosol technology 

  • Various facets of ventilation systems
