Tell us more about clean rooms!
What I remember from class is that it's a fan on the roof, blowing air through a very fine filter.
The most magic part for me is that this still works even though the PM2.5 pollution outside is terrible (the AQI is over 150 today, which causes me to sneeze and get red eyes, and is known to increase the risk of cancer, so everyone wears dust masks outside).

Most cleanrooms are now class 10 (meaning 10 half micron sized particles per square meter) compared to a class 1,000 operating room. The wafers are all sealed in the 'clearnoom within the cleanroom' spaces of tools and FOUPS. I have heard of fabs having problems fro msources as strange as nearby farms and earthquakes half way around the world. The filtering (ultra-HEPA filters) will absolutely clear up your alergies almost over night.
