The calculation of pollution mass balances is explained with reference to modelling indoor air quality in museums, and the implication of pollution deposition on building interior and museum objects is discussed. A short overview of the museum environments key pollutants and their effect on materials are given. Case studies, which compare buildings with and without air-filtration, old and new b...

air pollution is one of the major threats to environment in the present time. increase in degree of urbanization is a major cause of this air pollution. due to urbanization, vehicular activities are continuously increasing at a tremendous rate. mobile or vehicular pollution is predominantly degrading the air quality worldwide. thus, air quality management is necessary for dealing with this seve...

But it is contrary to living of the present environment. With the ra...

BACKGROUND We quantified the air quality benefits of a smoke-free workplace law in Boston Massachusetts, U.S.A., by measuring air pollution from secondhand smoke (SHS) in 7 pubs before and after the law, comparing actual ventilation practices to engineering society (ASHRAE) recommendations, and assessing SHS levels using health and comfort indices. METHODS We performed real-time measurements ...
