Complaints in modern buildings have been attributed to inadequate ventilation for the last 20 years. Few data exist to support this claim. In fact, few studies have actually looked at ventilation and complaints at the same time. These missing studies indicate a failure of three groups of professionals, physicians and health scientists, architects and ...

Indoor Air Quality in Bulgaria
Indoor and Built Environment, 1997High temperature combustion is the main source of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the air. Unvented gas and kerosene cooking appliances and space heaters are found to be the major indoor emission sources. It is important to know the level of exposure to NO2 in order to study their effects on health, to establish dose-effect ...

The Biofiltration of Indoor Air: Implications for Air Quality
Indoor Air, 2000An alternative method of maintaining indoor air quality may be through the biofiltration of air recirculating within the structure rather than the traditional approach of ventilation. This approach is currently being investigated. Prior to its acceptance for dealing with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and CO2, efforts were made to determine whether ...

Indoor air quality in university environments
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2009This study evaluates the airborne microflora in research laboratories of the University of Chieti (Italy). A quali-quantitative evaluation of the index microbial air contamination was performed using the settle plate method. The microbial air contamination was evaluated during 6 months in three university buildings (A, B, and C).

The quality of indoor air is influenced by chemical contamination from several sources. The main sources of indoor air pollution are infiltration of the outdoor air, volatile compounds from contaminated ground, and emissions from building materials. Naturally, the indoor use and generation of chemicals are relevant sources too.

Indoor air quality sensing indicators
2016 6th Electronic System-Integration Technology Conference (ESTC), 2016The indoor air quality sensing indicators introduce people to novel concepts necessary for being aware and analysing of the indoor environments and help them to recognise and address indoor environmental quality problems in the building environments and the link to health, comfort and productivity of the occupants.It is known that people spend most of ...

Ventilation and indoor air quality
2006Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the ventilation and indoor air quality. It deals with the reasons for ventilating buildings and the process of choosing ventilation rates for specific situations. The chapter lists and gives examples of the four types of indoor air contaminants and describes the three methods of maintaining indoor air quality ...

Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association, 1975
As part of a larger program to investigate indoor sources of air pollution, an indoor/outdoor sampling program was carried out for NO, NO2, and CO In four private houses which had gas stoves. The four houses chosen for study represented different surrounding land use, life styles, and house age and layout.

Indoor Air Quality: AUK Perspective
Indoor and Built Environment, 1995Outdoor air quality has generally improved in the UK over the last 2 decades but during this period changing conditions within the home have tended to reduce ventilation and increase the opportunity for accumulation of undesir able levels of indoor air pollutants. Information obtained from laboratory and epidemiological studies suggests that indoor air
