I've rarely been in so much of a hurry that I want to blow dry a bunch of
negatives.
It doesn't matter how good your filter is, you are gonna suck dust into the
box with a vacuum cleaner. If you want moving air, it needs to be gentle.
If I was gonna build a dryer like that, I'd put a light bulb in a juice can
on the bottom of the dryer and let convection move the air.
If I wanted fresh air, I'd put an air filtered intake below the juice can
and a vent above the film hanger.
