Health Hazards With the rise of CO2 levels, the air inhaled is less fresh or rather it gets staled, that can trigger physical symptoms like headaches, restlessness, drowsiness, increased heart rate, sweating and more. CO2 beyond 1500 ppm levels in indoor spaces can directly escalate low productivity, high sick leave and infectious disease transmission, making
Carbon dioxide or CO2 is a chemical compound found in air which is a molecule of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. It is found in gaseous state in room temperature and found in 0.04%(410 ppm) by volume in air. This level has increased from 280 ppm which was pre-industrialization period level. It is one
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are threatening to human health and also to the environment as most of these are toxic, mutagenic (capable of inducing mutations or increase the rate in genes), and carcinogenic (cancer causing). VOCs are also cited as contributors to atmospheric photochemical reactions leading to the formation of ground level ozone– the main
Volatile Organic Compounds are a group of volatile organic chemicals that vapourises easily and immediately when exposed to air, even in room temperature, and are considered pollutants which means that they are hazardous to human and animal health. They can be both naturally and synthetically occurring compounds. These are highly volatile chemicals, i.e. they have
The online market of air purifiers today is a swarming space, where each day a new product is ushering up, thanks to the pollution levels in the cities setting new records with each passing day. Being a dedicated IAQ company, Bonphul too has launched its wall mounted model of the Astria Air Purifiers – Astria W60 on Amazon India E-commerce
Things decay: either they wear off or fall apart. Things emit: whether from natural sources like wildfires or volcanoes, or man-made sources like vehicles and factories. And things get blown away: like dust from road-sides or barren fields, or pollens from flowers in blooms. In all these cases, fine particulate matter—sometimes too fine to be
Indoor Air Quality, as described in the previous chapter, is determined by a multitude of factors; ambient air being only one of them. IAQ is also a very specific to its context. It is seen that two adjoining enclosed space could have two different sets of issues. For instance, consider two adjoining apartments: One apartment
Ventilation in Modern Buildings Ventilation in a building refers to the exchange of indoor and outdoor air, which is vital in maintaining a healthy IAQ. Insulated and airtight buildings with no proper ventilation confines harmful pollutants indoors. Also, high humidity build-up in indoor air can damage a building structure. Additionally, elevated levels of humidity can
As per the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reports, poor outdoor air flow, fluctuating humidity and temperature levels, remodeling, and other activities in or near a building may contaminate fresh air flow into a building. Buildings today are either ultra-efficient and highly insulated or are built without appropriate ventilation in clustered space, both
