Semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) are ubiquitous contaminants in indoor environments, emanating from different sources and partitioning among several compartments, including the gas phase, airborne particles, settled dust. Nevertheless, simultaneous measurements three compartments rarely reported. In this study, we investigated concentrations of a wide range SVOCs 30 French dwellings. dust, 40 out 57 target were detected. The highest median measured for phthalates to lesser extent...

The aim of this study was to characterize the relationship between Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and ventilation in French classrooms. Various parameters were measured over one school week, including volatile organic compounds, aldehydes, particulate matter (PM2.5 mass concentration number concentration), carbon dioxide (CO2 ), air temperature, relative humidity 51 classrooms at 17 schools. characterized by several indicators, such as exchange rate, rate (VR), stuffiness index (ICONE), that are...

Worldwide, public policies are promoting energy-efficient buildings and accelerating the thermal renovation of existing buildings. The effects these changes on indoor air quality (IAQ) in remain insufficiently understood. In this context, a field study was conducted 72 dwellings to describe pollutants known be associated with health concerns. Measured parameters included concentrations 19 volatile organic compounds aldehydes, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter (PM2.5 ), radon, temperature,...

The potential health effects of fine and ultrafine particles are increasing concern. A better understanding particle characteristics dispersion behavior is needed. This study aims at characterizing spatial temporal variations in after emission from a model source an experimental house. Particles emitted by incense stick burning for 15 min were characterized. Number concentration, specific surface area mass measured. Partial chemical analysis was also realized. Near the stick, maximum...

Perception of indoor air quality (PIAQ) was evaluated in a nationwide survey 567 French dwellings, and this combined with measurements gaseous particulate matter (PM10 PM2.5 ) pollutants climate parameters. The perception assessed on nine-grade scale by both the occupants dwellings inspectors who performed measurements. perceived their homes as more pleasant than inspectors. unpleasant which residents smoked indoors. Significant associations between PIAQ pollutant concentrations were...

Abstract Indoor air quality monitoring in public premises, especially those hosting vulnerable populations such as children, was introduced the second French national environment and health action plan then regulated by first "Grenelle Environnement" law, on August 3, 2009. A pilot survey of indoor 310 schools day-care centers performed two phases from 2009 to 2011. This article is dedicated results phase (2009 2010, 160 centers), another preparation about whole results. Formaldehyde,...
