Abstract Existing research has shown that numerous air contaminants are present in classrooms, sometimes high concentrations, which may have an impact on children’s health and academic performance. In order to create a safe, healthy, productive, comfortable atmosphere for students, instructors, other school personnel, schools must good indoor quality. This study assessed the current IAQ’s level...

In this study, simultaneous monitoring of indoor and outdoor Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) was carried out in a school, by both Radiello® cartridges real-time monitors (Corvus, IonScience Ltd., Fowlmere UK). Moreover, an air quality assessment performed with data from station (ARPA Puglia) located close to the school. particular, VOCs, Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xilenes concentrations,...

This study aims to determine the evolution of many pollutants, especially particles and their precursors, by four generations wood-burning domestic heating appliances between 2000 2015. As emissions issue remains relevant, second part this work concerns simulation firewood fleet evolution. Many characteristics were measured: mass, number, size distribution, Organic Elemental Carbon composition,...

In Indonesia, sick building syndrome (SBS) and related health problems are suspected among the residents in emerging new urban houses constructed of modern materials without sufficient material standards or minimum ventilation rates. First, this study investigates current conditions indoor air quality (IAQ) newly high-rise apartments major cities contrast with traditional landed houses, so-call...

People spend more than 90% of their time in buildings. The highly stochastic behavior occupants can alter the pollutants concentration an indoor space. Many studies have reiterated that window opening is one best methods to reduce pollutant concentration. In this study, we analyzed influence on pollution parameters (CO 2 and TVOC) 16 student dorms Syracuse, NY. duration study encompasses all ma...

Air pollutant exposure in workplace environments has been associated with health and cognitive outcomes of workers. While green building certification programs have instrumental promoting indoor air quality (IAQ), the present literature indicates inconsistent evidence. Recent emergence proliferation WELL program that prioritizes human evoked new questions about its effectiveness relation to IAQ...

PURPOSE This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between indoor air pollutant levels and residential environment in children with atopic dermatitis (AD) living in Seoul. METHODS A total of 150 children with AD were included. Residential environment was assessed by questionnaires which were completed by their parents.
