Modeling air filter to capture particulates from fresh outdoor air of ventilation system

Hello everyone, I am modeling a ventilation system with an outdoor airflow rate of 0.00944 m³/s per person. However, since I have included generic outdoor contaminants in the model, the results indicate elevated indoor contaminant levels. In reality, ventilation systems utilize filtered fresh air. Does anyone have ideas on how to incorporate filtered air into my ventilation system for a more accurate representation?
