Le terme anglais "negative air system" n'est pas une unité terminologique. L'équivalent français proposé ici n'est qu'une expression descriptive approximative. Nos recherches nous ont conduite à croire que le système en cause faisait appel à la précipitation électrostatique. Il serait sans doute préférable de parler de l'utilisation d'électrofiltres. Voir les fiches suivantes dans Termium : "électrofiltre" (en anglais : "electrostatic precipitator") et "précipitation électrostatique" (en anglais : electrostatic precipitation"). 1, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20faisant%20appel%20%C3%A0%20des%20charges%20%C3%A9lectriques%20n%C3%A9gatives
